The Vindo 45 is an exceptional example of Swedish craftsmanship. In his book, "The World's Best Sailboats", Ferenc Maté, stated "If you were to ask most sailors to tell you in one phrase how they'd like their fiberglass boats built, they would tell you without hesitation, "out of wood". Vindö Yachts of Sweden have done just that as far as is humanly possible. They have combined strength and longevity of fiberglass hulls and cockpits and a partial deck with the beauty of magnificently crafted varnished mahogany house and teak housetops and teak decks, to create some of the prettiest yachts in the world today."
