1988 Langedrag 40 Deck Salon | S/V Kiwi
Built in Sweden and designed for serious offshore cruising, S/V Kiwi is a rugged and beautifully crafted 40' steel Langedrag Deck Salon that combines exceptional seaworthiness with the comfort and practicality demanded by long-range voyaging. With her full-displacement steel hull, fin keel, attached skeg rudder, and protected deck-salon layout, Kiwi is a proven cruising yacht built to handle challenging conditions while providing a warm, secure living environment.
The spacious interior features three private cabins, a generous salon, a dedicated navigation station with inside steering, a full galley, and abundant storage throughout. Rich wood joinery, teak-and-holly sole, and large deck-salon windows create a bright and inviting atmosphere ideal for extended cruising or living aboard.
Power comes from a Yanmar 4JH45 45HP diesel engine installed in 2021 with approximately 484 hours, paired with a ZF transmission. The vessel is equipped for comfortable cruising with hot and cold pressure water, radiator panel cabin heating system, 400L freshwater capacity, a Lavac marine head, shore power, battery charger, inverter, and dual battery banks.
On deck, Kiwi offers excellent functionality and safety, featuring a stainless pulpit and lifelines, substantial bulwarks, teak cockpit seating, Maxwell-Nilsson windlass, oversized ground tackle, steering vane, and a recently constructed FRP hard dodger. Sail handling is enhanced by a new Harken Reflex furling system, self-tailing Andersen winches, lazy jacks, and a stack-pack system.
Navigation and communication equipment include Raymarine chartplotter and radar, B&G instrumentation, Standard Horizon VHF, Starlink Marine connectivity, and both interior and exterior helm stations.
Additional equipment includes a new 10' Zodiac tender and Suzuki 6HP outboard.
According to a 2025 marine survey, Kiwi was found to be a well-maintained, well-constructed, and comfortable cruising vessel suitable for near-coastal and offshore use, with numerous upgrades completed by knowledgeable owners over their years of stewardship.
If you've been searching for a capable steel cruising yacht with Scandinavian pedigree, modern upgrades, and true offshore capability, S/V Kiwi deserves your attention.
