The Krogen Express 49 is one of the most sought after semi-displacement designs out there.  Her design heritage is reminiscent of the commuter yachts of the twenties and thirties but embodies the engineering and build quality of the 21st century.
Slainte has a classy khaki hull and sparkling wooden transome that has just been refinished.  She has brand new Furuno instrumentation with three touchscreen displays at both helms, bow and stern thrusters, re-designed guest cabin that allows two comfortable bunks while still maintaining the desk and hanging locker, new spur cutters, new barrier coat and bottom paint, new center- console dinghy, Starlink and Vesper VHF.
All this in addition to her already impressive list of reverse cycle heat and air, Northern Lights genset, full size appliances and the list goes on.
She is the perfect combination of beauty, grace, economy and the ability to sip fuel at trawler speeds or step out and "pick up her skirts" when needed.
Sure you can spend more but, why?  What's not to love?

Accommodations and layout

Upon entering from the stern, there is a large, comfortable cockpit measuring 11' X 6'6" with transom door.  There are also side entry doors from the dock and opening gates further up the walk ways on either side.  

Double doors open into the spacious, light saloon with "C" shaped settee and twin occasional chairs opposite.  This area flows into the galley which features full size appliances.

Up a few steps to the pilothouse that has the wonderful appointment of opening doors on both port and starboard.....invaluable!  There is pilothouse bench seating that opens to a bunk and a half for additional guest accommodations, if needed. 

Down a few steps to the area below that is the common area accessing the washer/dryer and the entrance to the stand up engine room.

Traveling forward is a guest stateroom/office to starboard with guest head to port.  This head features a full fiberglass shower, Vacuflush head and sink.

The owner's stateroom is forward with huge centerline bunk, loads of storage and ensuite head.  There is almost 7' of headroom in this stateroom, allowing a light area with a feeling of spaciousness.  The private owner's stateroom head has a full fiberglass shower, sink and Vacuflush head.
