Vindo is listed in Ferenc Mate's 'The World's Best Sailboats' as being just that ("The worksmanship is so precise that a violin maker couldn't improve on it", and this fine example of Swedish craftsmanship must be seen to be appreciated--her structural and aesthetic beauty are both readily apparent, notice in particular the European craftsmanship evident in the mahogany joinery below (Vindo is often compared to Hinckley). Full keel with cutaway forefoot, skeg hung rudder, vessel's in outstanding shape inside and out.

During our Broker Inspection of "Spirit", we came to see that she is in excellent condition.  As well as looking good, this boat is fully functional; that is, everything works!  The interior feels like new.  The engine is very clean, top and bottom, it starts in an instant, and purrs at cruising speed.  The sails, though maybe as old as five or six years, look almost new.  They are not "blown out" in any way and show very little wear and tear, even in high-stress areas.  All of the sailing/running gear operates as it should, no stiffness, no binding, no beat-up old lines. If we sing all of Spirit's praises, we will run out of space here... take a look at the equipment list and the photographs, and call for an appointment to see a true classic fiberglass sailing yacht.  If this boat is your style of sailing boat, you are going to love its cosmetic and functional condition.
