The Aphrodite 36 combines the easy handling of a mid-sized sailing yacht with the volume and comfort usually found in much larger boats. Below deck, you’ll find a spacious and well-designed interior offering first-class comfort for the crew. The main saloon, with its generous sofas and high-quality upholstery, provides both space and elegance.

The boat is located in Hunnebostrand (Sweden), is Norwegian-owned, NOR-registered, and Norwegian VAT is paid.

Join the world of first-class sailing – welcome aboard! Viewings available by appointment with the broker.
