LUNA DANNS is a great example of the capabilities of Sweden Yachts.  Their engineering capabilities for a yacht with moderately complex systems are well demonstrated, along with exceptional joinery and finish work on the interior, and overall design with three very comfortable staterooms, plus crew.  The Yacht is simple, yet thrilling to sail and extremely comfortable in the center guest cockpit.  She had a comprehensive refit in 2004 and consistent improvements through 2008.  She has been stored by Hinckley Yachts in Portsmouth RI since 2009 with ongoing service; bottom stripped and re-faired, new batteries, all brightwork refinished September 2014.  She is in the water, fully ready for inspection and seatrials.
