1993 Freya 39

The Freya 39 is a heavy-displacement, double-ended cutter designed by Trygve Halvorsen, drawing inspiration from the original wooden Freya—a yacht that won three consecutive Sydney-Hobart Races. Built in Port Townsend by Vance Marine, the design emphasizes a long, full keel with a cutaway forefoot for exceptional directional stability and safety in rough conditions. The hull combines Scandinavian design traditions with modifications for speed and offshore performance, making it a capable cruising yacht suited to long-distance passages.

The yacht features a single Westerbeke 46 hp diesel engine and accommodates two cabins with one head. Navigation and safety systems include a chartplotter, autopilot, radar, and VHF radio. The boat is equipped with a 12V Maxwell anchor windlass, hot and cold pressure water, refrigeration, a Sigmar diesel cabin heater, and an Aires windvane for self-steering.

Recent maintenance includes bottom paint and engine service completed in 2025, with new bellows fitted to the PSS shaft seal in 2026. Oil was changed 15 hours before the last service interval. The boat has been maintained regularly throughout its single-ownership history and is presented in good overall condition.
