SY Jolly – Your Expedition-Ready Home on the High Seas

Built in 1990 by Kempers BV in Holland, to designs by Långedrag Marin of Sweden, SY Jolly is not just a yacht—it’s an expedition platform. A 49-foot steel cruiser with an aluminium superstructure, built over-spec, winter-insulated and fitted for serious ocean voyages, polar regions, and demanding charter work.

With a beam of 5.1 m, four cabins (including two spacious double suites forward, and crew quarters aft), plus a roomy saloon and galley, she strikes the rare balance between rugged capability and inviting comfort. Whether you’re seeking remote fjord explorations, ski & sail in the Arctic, island-hopping in summer, or launching your own charter, SY Jolly is ready.

Features That Make the Difference

• Strong, over-sized rigging: mainmast and staysails renew in 2019; Andersen self-tailing winches throughout.
