Fantasi 37

Fantasi 37 from 1984. Sturdy Swedish Quality built long-keeler for world wide cruising

The Fantasi 37 is a sturdy boat for all types of sailing on all oceans. The boat has a massive displacement, an elongated keel and a consistent quality that only few yachts can match, then or even now. The boat has classic lines with positive stern, a safe deep aft cockpit and a very fine teak deck.
The cockpit has both a helmsman's well and a bridge deck. At the mast a sturdy Granny-bar further adds to the safe operation when handling sails under any weather condition.

This Fantasi 37 has a high-quality interior with all furnishings handmade and built in teak.

The engine from 2005 with only 1200 hours on the clock is located under the removable companionway stairs.

To port of the companionway is the U-shaped galley with double sinks and double fridges and pressure fresh water. The stainless-steel stove has two burners and is gimballed.

Above the sink there is a cabinet fitted for glassware and cups. Above the stove there is a cupboard for plates and dry goods and below the stove there is a cupboard for pots and pans. Drawer cabinet with four drawers and a cutting board. Opening skylight over the kitchenette.

To starboard of the companionway you will find an amble sea wardrobe and overhead cupboard.

The navigation table also to starboard has space for unfolded charts. Above it has three lockers, the control panel, VHF phone and metres. The chart table itself is a chest of drawers with four very wide and deep drawers.

On the port side of the saloon a U-shaped dinette can be found with a fold-out table and opposite of it another sofa. The sofas can be made up with a single cushion into a double berth or a wide single berth. The sofas and all other cusions are upholstered in dark green alcantara fabric (2015). Above the sofas are bookshelves and six upper cabinets and a built-in CD/radio and speakers.

Forward of the saloon a doorway leads to two wardrobes for hanging items and a chest of eight drawers to starboard and opposite a sliding door to the toilet room and a washbasin.

The aft compartment has two sea bunks with mattresses, one large and four smaller storage lockers. Two opening portlights towards the cockpit in the aft compartment.
