Swan 47 S & S design
We just cruised the beautiful San Blas Islands and now in Panama. That makes 20 countries cruised in the 7 years we have had the happy position as owners of this Swan 47.
SWAN is a beautiful classic yacht from the famous designers Sparkman & Stephens, and built by famous yacht builder Nautor Swan.
Between 1975 and 1983 there were 70 Swan 47 built in Finland. This Swan is build 60 - June 1981. It is the mark two version which is most sought after. They have several times been judged the world's best sail boats. These yachts are now collectibles.
This Swan has sailed the world including around the horn and eight times across the Atlantic. Continual maintaince and updates have been meticulous.
Swan is a pocket super yacht with two A/C units, a solid Teak interior, fresh water toilets, and the highest quality of equipment available. It has carbon fiber mast, spars and carbon rudder. Swan is a very fast sailboat. Rewired in 2016, and the latest B&G Zeuss Navpod installed.
There are eight berths, but we are sailing two up - a 75 year old man and 45kg wife.
We have liked sailing the world as this is a superb ocean sailing yacht, but a new owner may want it to be a contender for a handicap prize in the Sydney to Hobart race, or join regattas or club races.
