Swan 65 test: The triumphant return of a true sailing icon

• Toby Hodges
• June 20, 2019

Can a yacht be all things to all sailors? Give it the illustrious Swan 65 badge and maybe it can

We tested the Swan 65 in 11-18 knots off Barcelona. Photo: Klaus Andrews

If it hadn’t been for the original Swan 65, Nautor’s Swan might never have become the famous name it is today. Sayula II ’s victory in the first ever Whitbread Round the World Race in 1973/1974 cemented the Finnish boatbuilder’s exalted reputation.

There is, therefore, some historical weight in giving a new model the Swan 65 badge. While Nautor’s latest launch is not about to win a global race, it is designed in the spirit of that original S&S-designed 65, as a cruiser that can win races.

When Sayula II was built in 1972 it was easily the largest glassfibre yacht on the market – this despite Swan having produced its first yacht, a 36-footer, only a few years earlier. With 4m more waterline length, extra beam carried right aft and substantially greater freeboard, today’s Swan 65 has substantially greater volume than its predecessor. Yet, in a sign of the times, it is only a modest-sized model in Nautor’s current range, which now extends to twice its length.

This gulf in volume, hull and deck design reflects a change in demand from sailors, who were originally looking for seaworthy ocean racing yachts that could be cruised but now seek comfortable and spacious cruising yachts that can occasionally race.

The Swan 65 is designed by Frers to meet broad appeal and joins a growing list of new 60ft+ models aimed at being the largest size that can still be sailed by an owner. However, it offers greater versatility than most in that it should be equally suited to Mediterranean or ocean cruising, yet be capable of regatta racing, and has the option of a proper crew cabin in the accommodation.

Take the Dutch owners of this first boat, for example: experienced sailors who have owned a ClubSwan 45 and a Swan 601. Although they will compete in the Middle Sea Race, they primarily wanted a larger yacht for short-handed distance cruising and will use a part-time skipper to maintain the boat.

Baltic 67 review: Finnish superyacht yard goes back to its roots with no-compromise cruiser

Were money no object and you wanted the ultimate yacht for long-term cruising, what would you choose? How large could…

Dufour 56 Exclusive review: Smooth cruiser offers both style and substance

In some respects, Dufour yachts used to be a bit like the early Citroën cars: different, slightly quirky and created…

Comparisons in shape, style and appeal can be drawn with the new Baltic 67 . The owners of this first Swan 65 opted for the same APM telescopic keel and Hall carbon rig with in-boom furling mainsail. But whereas the Baltic is largely built in carbon and has a price tag that reflects its semi-custom build, Nautor prefers a glassfibre hull for a cruising yacht of this size for better noise insulation.

The contemporary hull and deck design also shares similarities with the Baltic. Their sheer size – notably in beam and freeboard – is striking. The Swan 65’s sheerline rises distinctly forward to a bowsprit, which protrudes a lofty 2m above the waterline. The freeboard height allows for a low-profile coachroof above the semi-raised saloon, but it does present a boarding challenge.

Seven Swan 65s were sold off the plans alone, an indication of the Finnish/Italian company’s popularity since it made the crucial decision to separate its models into bluewater cruisers , 80ft+ maxis and ClubSwan racing yachts. Astonishingly, it has another five new designs in construction from 36-125ft.

Sailing a Swan is always a privilege, but I felt especially lucky to have ideal testing conditions – it was a beautiful spring day, with a fresh Force 5 blowing, as we departed EMV Badolona, Swan’s new service and refit centre near Barcelona.

It was only the second time the sails had been hoisted and we had the opportunity to trial Cuordisole before it was handed over to its owners the following week. So the first hour or so was spent gingerly reaching off the breeze under full sail, not wishing to push anything too quickly.

11 knots of comfort

The hull shape is designed for low heel angles. Photo: Klaus Andrews

In 15-18 knots true wind we were swiftly and consistently averaging 10.5-11.5 knots at 100-110 ° true, with a comfortable 15 ° of heel. These figures are in line with what Frers and Swan predict: that this high, beamy hull shape should be stable and produce low heeling angles typically around 20 ° . The theory is this makes for a comfortable ship aboard which to spend long periods sailing at heel.

I was keen to put the theory into more dynamic practice, and once I knew the skipper was happy, I asked if we could heat things up a bit and spend some time close-hauled.

Wow! Despite the stability designed into the hull shape, when the Swan 65 does power-up and heel, you know about it! With the full sails pinned in and nearly 30 knots of apparent wind across the deck, we pushed it until we heeled to 30 ° . From high up on the windward helm, you become very aware of the cockpit beam, and much reliance is placed on the large foot braces.

The power in the mainsail is impressive. The test boat had a small square-top to its main – a full square-top option is offered for racing. Despite pressing the boat, there was no hint of it losing grip, however you soon learn to respect and trim the heel angle. Heel too much and you pay a price in both comfort and speed.

Depowering the main levelled the boat out and we watched the speed rise to over 9 knots at around 40 ° true. The owner’s choice of a captive mainsheet, controlled via joystick on each pedestal, made it quick and effortless to dial down the power.

The hull is beamier than usual with a higher freeboard, for stability and headroom. “When I started [designing] headroom needed to be 1.85m – now it’s up to 2.15m inside,” designer Germán Frers explained, while describing the Swan 65’s form stability.

“When it heels the centre of buoyancy moves higher and further outboard than deeper, narrower designs and this increases the righting arm. As you load the boat the stability increases with beam. The wider arm increases the GZ, which is why we don’t load the boat with ballast.”

The coachroof is low enough to allow unhindered forward visibility from both helms. Photo: Nico Martinez

Smooth speed

Frers was rationalising the particularly low ballast ratio of 24.1 on the Swan 65 and explaining how the stability of modern hull shapes can increase with load where the ballast ratio diminishes.

“Ballast ratio was used a lot with old shapes, where everything saved on the interior went into lead. Now they [the hulls] are very stable up to 120 ° . We didn’t want to increase the ballast because it becomes more jerky and is hard work.”

The motion certainly felt smooth through the waves, but keep it sailing at a civilised heel angle and it was the consistency of speed that proved telling. We had some long spells of two-sail reaching where the regularity of sitting at double-figure speeds impressed me.

When the breeze picked up to 18-22 knots true, average speed increased to 11.5 knots. If we could bear away and hold the apparent breeze enough to hop onto a cross wave, the log would surge up to over 13 knots.

This is when the magic happened – not in an instant lightning bolt sort of way, but in a growing familiarity sense. The more time you spend on the wheel the more you enjoy it and the more you discover how this Swan likes to be sailed. It’s both a forgiving yacht and one that responds to and rewards trim.

The mast has been brought aft and pierces the coachroof, to allow for larger non-overlapping foresails and for powerful reaching sails to be set off the bowsprit. It’s a sail plan that looks and feels balanced.

Equally, twin rudders result in a light feel on the helm, but the blades are large and deep enough to communicate pressure increases and provide manoeuvrability in harbour. The result of the Frers team’s analysis concluded that a single rudder on this hull shape would need to be too deep. “Twin rudders are more efficient with less angle and diminished drag,” Germán Frers explained.

A dry, clean deck

Large foot braces even things up for Toby when the yacht is heeled

The high bow helps keep the decks dry, while the extension of the coachroof into long coamings aft gives the helmsman and trimmers a nice dry perch.

The standard cockpit layout has a central mainsheet plinth, between the two wheels; however, the Harken captive winch system this owner had opted for works effectively.

The electric winch is installed under the galley sole, with the sheet running up the mast, along the boom and down to a single point in the cockpit.

This helps keep a clear cockpit and works well for short-handed sailing as it provides joystick control of the system from each pedestal. The helmsman can also sit forward of the pedestal and steer and trim both sails if desired.

Two powered winches are neatly set into the coamings on each side for foresail trim and running rigging. Lines are all led aft, including the tack line, which has a side-mounted jammer that punctuates an otherwise clean side deck.

A compact locker below the side deck has the tough task of stowing all the tail ends, and there’s a dedicated liferaft locker below the forward part of the cockpit sole.

Cockpit benches are long and wide, but not especially deep. The owner of the test boat opted for a removable table to keep cockpit access clear, whereas a fixed table and/or the bridgedeck option might perhaps better suit family cruising.

An open transom combined with a beamy aft cockpit design is the current trend but one that prioritises coastal/Med sailing over ocean cruising. The Swan 65 has triple-height aft guardrails, but my concern is that, with no fixed mouldings across this aft section of cockpit, these rails would do little to stop rope tails or unsecured items being washed over the transom.

The side deck guardrails conform to requirements at 61cm, however higher rails here would give a greater sense of security for crew using the side decks at sea.

The garage is accessed from the transom door, with a large deck hatch above, and is wide enough to stow a 2.8m inflated dinghy. The sail locker is even more cavernous, with standing headroom and a watertight bulkhead aft. It creates superb stowage for offwind sails and fenders, or provides the option of a crew cabin.

The slight problem we experienced with hoisting the main and an issue of air in the fuel – both understandable considering this was only the yacht’s second outing – merely demonstrated the occasional need for extra hands on a yacht this size.

Quality of finish

The design and engineering needed to create the multiple below decks options Nautor’s Swan offers is of the highest degree, matched only by the superb quality of finish. A focus with the Swan 65 was on designing this range of options to achieve one deck, one coachroof and one central section of boat. “If every boat is a new boat, you never get the quality,” reasoned Vanni Galgani, product line leader for Swan Yachts.

The semi-raised saloon allows for genset and large tanks to be installed below the sole

Galgani explained that Nautor’s Swan now tries to avoid any customisation on yachts less than 80ft, as it is time-consuming, costly, and bad for resale value. It prefers to provide pre-engineered solutions, which help centralise weight and optimise the systems layout. This also allows for a variety of accommodation solutions, which notably includes a forward or aft owner’s cabin.

The semi-raised saloon and transverse galley work particularly well. Their combined length of over 5m creates a great impression of space. I was below decks as we punched out through a sharp swell at the marina entrance, and appreciated the solid handholds on the roof and fiddles around the furniture and worktops. For a voluminous interior it still felt practical at heel.

The galley is a sociable, airy place to prepare, cook and serve food. It has long, fiddled worksurfaces with space for a variety of appliances. The dinette area to starboard can instead be used for more refrigeration space and a proper navstation.

As it is it works well as a multi-use seating area for eating, passage planning, relaxing or even sleeping. The table drops to fill the space in between the berths and has lee cloth fittings, so could make a useful snug for kids.

Large hull portlights and hatches provide ample natural light to a light, modern interior

The L-shaped sofa on the starboard side of the saloon is also long enough to be used as a pilot berth. The downside of the test boat layout was the lack of a proper navstation – the owners had instead opted for a compact chart table to starboard with a fold-out stool.

Practical features

The volume continues in the forward owner’s cabin where it is beamy enough to sleep head forward on an island berth, away from the noise of the engine, cockpit or dock when berthed stern-to. And there is still 6ft 3in headroom around the berth. The test boat had a walk-in wardrobe by the cabin entrance, which takes care of most stowage requirements.

All three cabins have smart en suites with good-sized separate showers and practical stowage. Headroom in the identical aft twin cabins is maintained aft to the berths, while outboard alcoves allow extra height, light and room by the hull portlights.

The port cabin has a door into the after part of the engine room, providing access to the watermaker and filters – which is handy, as only the lower half of the companionway steps lift, and the engine is mounted low down.

General stowage is mostly above sole height rather than in the bilges. The soleboards are all insulated with foam surrounds, have spacers, and lift with the aid of a sucker. Peek below and you’ll not only notice the meticulous layout of the wiring, plumbing and generous tanks, but find standard practical Swan features, like a foot pump to purge water from the fridge/freezers and wooden cones attached to each through-hull fitting.

Below the galley sole is a 0.5m long section of the APM keel – the only part of this telescopic stainless steel work of art that is visible. It’s an engineering feat, which costs big bucks but is increasingly offered by the big yards.

Our verdict

Will people talk about this model in 50 years time? It’s not about to win a round the world race and create a global phenomenon. But they might well talk about this era of Nautor’s Swan and how this Frers design sits at the heart of Nautor’s renaissance.

The Swan 65 grows on you – the longer you sail it the more you enjoy it. Cruising sailors don’t seek an adrenaline rush, they want an enduring relationship built on easy rewards and dependability. This is a powerful boat, which is easy to sail fast but will be most gratifying when trimmed to keep it on its preferred low heel angle. Take the wheel and it’s hard not to daydream about how pleasant those consistent speeds and heeling angles would feel on a tradewind ocean crossing .

It’s a versatile design that offers much potential: it has a deck suited to short-handed Mediterranean-style sailing; stowage, systems and tankage to promote ocean cruising (with or without crew); and optional keel and sailplans to configure it for racing.

The original Swan 65 might still be the choice for seaworthy ocean racing, but for cruising in sublime space and comfort its new counterpart wins every time.

Nautor's Swan Yachts for Sale

The Nautor’s Swan shipyard is located in the small Finnish town of Pietarsaari, just a short distance from the Arctic Circle. On this icey stretch of coast, Nautor’s Swan have been building boats since 1966 and the Swan range is known throughout the world. In a build environment where temperatures can fall to minus 30 degrees celsius, and the sea can be frozen for up to five months of the year, advanced engineering excellence is a core part of the yard’s DNA.

Nautor’s Swan handles everything from the design to the finest details in a fully integrated in-house building process. The smaller Nautor’s Swan hulls, for cruising yachts, are hand laid-up and vacuum-infused, while the larger models are constructed in foam-core carbon, which has huge weight-saving benefits.

Swan yacht buyers can also enjoy membership of ‘Club Swan’ – a non-profit organization for past, present and future Swan sailing yacht owners. The Club organizes various regattas, including the ‘Rolex Swan Cup’, the ‘Swan European Regatta’ and the ‘Swan American Regatta’ and these are run in association with the Yacht Club Costa Smeralda, the Royal Yacht Squadron of Cowes and the New York Yacht Club, respectively.

Today, with more than 50 years’ of heritage, Nautor’s Swan is globally recognized as an undisputed leader in the international sailing market.

History of Nautor’s Swan Yachts

The Nautor’s Swan Shipyard was founded in 1966 by Pekka Koskenkyla, a man with an inspiring vision to produce high-quality, high-performance sailing yachts for those passionate about cruising, racing and seeking contact with the ocean and nature. Pekka, educated in the USA, had the foresight to engage Sparkman & Stephens of New York, one of the most acclaimed yacht designers at the time, to design the first sailing yacht. The vessel was built in fiberglass and trimmed with wood – materials which would dominate the production of vessels in the years to come.

The first sailing yacht model from the Nautor’s Swan shipyard was the Swan 36, and this led to the Swan 37 and Swan 43, with the latter winning the Admiral’s Cup in 1969.

That same year, fate’s fickle hand dealt the Nautor’s Swan yard a catastrophic blow. The Assembly Hall caught fire and burnt to the ground, destroying with it a dozen hulls in various stages of production. Pekka was forced to sell stakes in the company to finance the yard’s rebuild and see production resumed.

When the yard was re-established, the larger and more elegant Swan 55 and Swan 65 yachts were born. Partnering cruising capability with racing prowess for the typical owner and recreational yachtsman, the designs were immensely popular. Testament to their racing ability, it was a Swan 65 (named SAYULA II) that won the first Whitbread Round the World Race in 1973/74.

In the late 70’s and early 80’s, Nautor’s Swan engaged naval architect Ron Holland as their designer of choice. Holland designed five boats for the yard, of which approximately 300 units were produced.

The mid to late 80s saw Swan enter another new era of design, this time with the appointment of German Frers. Along with a string of great successes in models under 80 foot (24m), Frers was also responsible for Swan’s first Maxi models; the Swan 80, Swan 90, Swan 100, Swan 105, Swan 110 and Swan 115 – with the 115 seeing the yard cross over into superyacht territory.

Frers’ contribution to Nautor’s Swan also permitted them entrance to the ‘one design’ racing sector, with the design of the Swan 45 in 2001. This was followed by the ‘Club Swan 42’ in 2005 which was developed in association with the New York Yacht Club.

In 2002, a new yard, close to the sea, was opened in Jakobstad. The new yard is dedicated to the assembly of the Maxi Swans, building the Swan 60 through to the Swan 115.

In 2017, Nautor’s Swan opened their Boatbuilding Technology Center. Here, there are facilities dedicated to joinery and high-tech lamination, a post-cure oven, painting halls, and areas for warehousing and logistics. The close proximity of the engineering and manufacturing departments results in an efficiency that is rarely seen.

Nautor’s Swan has been controlled and managed by Leonardo Ferragamo and his group of investors since 1998.

Nautor’s Swan is recognized as a leader in the international sailing market.

The Nautor’s Swan collection

Known today as ‘Swans’, the modern yachts built by Nautor’s Swan owe their success and acclaim to the original Swan 36. This first design, which featured a number of significant innovations, offered a level or performance and safety that equalled that of traditional wooden vessels yet the lighter fiberglass hull provided greater steering ability and enhanced living space. The Swan 36 marked the beginning of what would become one of the most prestigious boat yards in the world.

The Swans of the ‘70s and ‘80s were designed by the award-winning naval architect Ron Holland. German Frers took over as Swan’s naval architect of choice from the mid to late 80s, and he designed many highly successful models under 80 foot (24m) for the shipyard.

Swan’s first Maxi yacht models were also designed by Frers: the Swan 80, Swan 90, Swan 100, Swan 105, Swan 110 and Swan 115. The 115 brought Nautor’s Swan into the superyacht sector and the skills of Frers’ have again been employed for the design of Swan’s latest sailing yacht, the Swan 120.

Nautor Swan 48, MIDNIGHT SWAN

Nautor Swan, Nautor Swan 48 Built 2021 / £1,200,000, UK VAT paid

Broker’s Comments

The Nautor Swan 48 is an iconic class that embodies all the qualities for which Nautor is renowned: intelligent design, superb build quality, exhilarating and rewarding sailing performance, comfortable fast cruising, and the potential to participate in regattas. This class has proven to be immensely popular, with over 60 hulls currently navigating the waters. MIDNIGHT SWAN, designated 48/227, was delivered to its current owner in 2021. It boasts a comprehensive specification for cruising and an impressive sail wardrobe featuring 3Di Ocean sails from North. Its owners are experienced sailors who prioritize performance and have previously owned several race boats. It was imperative for them that MIDNIGHT SWAN be fully equipped for two-handed sailing while also being suitable for regattas, a requirement it has met admirably. The yacht is in virtually new condition, with some mattresses and bedding still in protective coverings. And, of course, a Swan is a Swan.

Builder’s/Manufacturer’s Comments

For Nautor’s Swan, 48 is a magic number. One of the most iconic Swans ever was born in 1971 under this number: the mythical Swan 48. Designed by the best yacht designer of that time, indeed one of the best of all times, Sparkman & Stephens of New York, this iconic yacht won some of the most prestigious offshore races, like the Bermuda Race and Transatlantic Race and achieving selection for the Admiral’s Cup – the “Formula One” race series of that time.

However, racing was not the main purpose of the boat: like any Swan, she was born to be a perfect family cruiser, capable of sailing around the world in total safety and comfort. Quoting from the original brochure: “With many international races behind her – the Swan 48 is keeping up an irresistible challenge as top-class ocean racer. With the speed of a bird of prey, she combines the luxury and grace which make her the swift, smooth-going Swan of tomorrow. The Swan 48 is equipped to the highest professional standards and the woodwork has the class given it by the Nautor specialists, men who have learnt their crafts around the Gulf of Bothnia, where woodwork and shipbuilding skills are traditional. The unique design and professional skills behind the Swan 48 make her the complete ocean cruising racer.” To prove this, 46 units were sold during five years of production.

Following the same principles, in 1995 German Frers designed a new Swan 48 with the same level of grace and performance as the original one: another shining success, with 57 yachts built, now becoming beloved and highly regarded yachts on the brokerage market.

Today, almost forty years after the original one, it is time for another mythical Swan 48.

Designer’s Comments

German Frers, Architect: Like every design coming off our drawing board, the new Swan 48 has been designed with heart and passion, but rather than acting only on the flash of a moment of inspiration, this new Nautor model is the result of a rational brief, based on a market analysis and the experience of the builder, agents and designers, coordinated by the Nautor Project Line Leader. One can safely say the Swan 48 is a new model created by the work of a team of experts, and she offers the best equipment and material specifications and solutions available in the market. The equipment and tanks are low in the bottom of the hull and close to the longitudinal centre of buoyancy. The angle of positive stability is in the order of 120 degrees.

The displacement reflects the quality of the construction and the equipment dedicated to providing best comfort on-board. A yacht that will be safe, a pleasure to sail, will have an easy motion at sea due to the form stability and moderate ballast of the three keel options available, standard, shallow and racing. Following the latest larger models, the new design shows no distortion in the stern sections, the deck beam has been carried all the way back to the transom in combination with a twin rudder arrangement. Positive control shallow rudder draft and extra sailing length are some of the advantages of this design. A well-illuminated, massive interior volume where every one of the three cabins and two toilets that include separate showers has been carefully developed in detail by the interior designer.

On deck, there are separate areas for relaxing and sail handling. All halyards and sails are controlled from the cockpit and the tails stowed in dedicated bins. Protection from the elements is given by the spray hood mounted in combination with the bimini. The lazarette is large enough to accommodate and stow a fully inflated 2.80-metre tender. For sailors interested in racing at the Corinthian level there is a performance package offer available from Nautor, including a racing keel, a square top mainsail, carbon fibre mast and rigging, long bowsprit, upgraded deck gear together with recommendations to remove some of the cruising-oriented equipment like the gen set.

Misa Poggi, Interior Designer: Working on the interior of a Swan yacht means creating a special atmosphere for on-board comfort and contentment and a reciprocal enrichment beyond the practicalities of place, function and space, always involving Finnish passion for excellence.

The process for producing a sense of intimacy combined with the necessary seamanlike features is a multi-faceted one that enriches itself thanks to the collaboration of the great expertise of the Nautor’s Swan team, our technicians and, of course, evaluating the dreams of Swan enthusiasts.

The atmosphere on-board and its energy are determined by the relationship between spacial elements and materials.

Nautor’s Swan materials are chosen carefully and tested by the whole team to guarantee their best performance in all the challenging areas of the sailing context.

Owner’s Comments

Although we have owned many yachts in the past, MIDNIGHT SWAN was our first Nautor Swan. We purchased her while she was in build, and we were able to upgrade the specification significantly, including the sail wardrobe, a folding saloon table, central heating (we wanted to use her in the UK, after all!), additional refrigeration, and many more detailed updates.

MIDNIGHT SWAN is UK VAT paid as we purchased her for UK two-handed sailing, and she has performed extremely well. Her modest size makes her welcome in UK ports, and she sails quickly and is very well balanced. She is a very stable platform, and we have never found the need to bring additional crew on-board. Her twin rudders have proved to be a very big plus.

The build quality of the Swan 48 is everything that you would imagine; MIDNIGHT SWAN looks good behind the scenes as well. Her lightwood interior makes her light, bright, and airy below.

We have much enjoyed our ownership of MIDNIGHT SWAN, and we are only putting her on the market as we have decided to do more sailing in the Mediterranean, and we already have a yacht there. This means that MIDNIGHT SWAN will not have the use that she deserves in our hands, so we have reluctantly decided to put her on the market. She is a fantastic yacht, and we are sure that her next owners will have as much good sailing and fun aboard her as we have.

27 Aug Rolex Swan Cup is always more than just a regatta

All sports have events in their calendars that transcend the sport itself, that embrace a sense of community which links participants in a shared experience, along with those who witness and support it.

Yacht racing of course has its contenders for this transcendental crown, and the Rolex Swan Cup has been successfully stating its own claim for the honour every two years since 1980 — and will do so again at its 22nd edition from September 15-21 in Porto Cervo with more than 100 examples of the Nautor Swan range already entered.

The regatta will also mark a celebration of the 40th anniversary of the partnership between Rolex, Yacht Club Costa Smeralda (YCCS) and Nautor Swan. To commemorate these first 40 years together a photographic exhibition will be held in Piazza Azzurra tracing the values which underpin this iconic regatta and have united Rolex, YCCS and Nautor Swan for four decades. It will be a journey of emotions and memories, celebrating the past with a clear view to the future.

“Our partnership with Rolex and the YCCS has been a long and successful celebration of shared values and constant innovation that has established a landmark in the world of sailing and sport,” said Nautor Group President Leonardo Ferragamo . “It has been and is an example of gentlemanly yet real competition, elegance and friendship. I am happy to welcome so many passionate sailors to this exciting new edition!”

A gathering of friends

Sardinia’s friendly and exclusive Yacht Club Costa Smeralda has long been described as the Swan fleet’s spiritual home, and it fully deserves the title with its seemingly effortless delivery of elegance, sophistication and efficiency — rather like a Swan yacht it might be said.

Combine this with the magnificent sailing area around Sardinia’s spectacular and scenic northern coasts, and it is easy to appreciate the firm foundations supporting this long-standing collaboration.

Within such a secure setting the camaraderie between Swan owners and sailors has blossomed, with the spirit imbued in the iconic brand extending out into friendly competition on the water, and then refreshed ashore as old and new friends share and celebrate the Swan experience.

The 2024 edition will once again welcome members of the Swan family from all over the planet, with models from the extensive range spanning from the smallest — and most recent addition — the ClubSwan 28 to one of the Maxis, the 27.7m Swan 90 Freya .

Her owner Donald Macpherson celebrated winning the Maxi class in 2022 with words that went directly to the heart of the event: “It was an incredible week, and all the boats and competitors were really fantastic. Success in sailing, the Rolex Swan Cup, Porto Cervo, the YCCS, there is nothing better.”

It is a view fully shared at the lower end of the LOA range. Giulio Gatti , the owner of Anya Race one of the new CS28s, as well as a Swan 48 Anya , said: “Being part of the Swan racing world has been a marvellous experience, and the Rolex Swan Cup is a jewel in the crown for the whole Swan world, which is a club and a family. As one of the first owners of the new ClubSwan 28s I cannot wait until we take to the water in Sardinia again.”

Out on the racecourse

With the emphasis firmly set on friendly and fair racing, the Rolex Swan Cup has introduced a few imaginative changes in 2024 to enhance the experience.

Overall the fleet is divided into two groups with Group 1 hosting the Rating classes, split into three divisions: Maxi, Swan and Sparkman & Stephens, each further divided into classes. In one of the new changes, the fleet will not only be divided by size, as in the past, but also depending on how racing orientated each entry is. The idea here is to maximise the fun for all, aiming to avoid having a full-on racing machine amid a class of Corinthian if competitive entries, and vice versa.

Meanwhile Group 2 will feature the more racing focused Swan One Design models with classes including the ClubSwan 50, ClubSwan 36 and ClubSwan 28. In addition the Swan One Design Grand Prix class has been created to cater for other Swan OD classes like the Swan 45 and ClubSwan 42.

The final innovation to this year’s event is that racing will now take place over five consecutive days — 17 to 21 September — with no lay-day, so finishing on a Saturday giving owners and crews a more convenient journey home.

This change is of particular benefit to those travelling long distances to attend, none more so than Mr Watanabe, who will be racing onboard Swan 68 Defiance : “My relationship with Mr. Ferragamo started when my company Riviera became the exclusive dealer in Japan of the Swan brand.

“I am looking forward to meeting and communicating with many people who share the Swan spirit and values, not only through the racing, but also through attending owner’s meetings and Rolex parties in Porto Cervo.

“I want to absorb the passion and spirit of yachting that I see, hear, and feel at the venue, as well as observe and learn about the operation of the event, and use this knowledge for the first Swan race event in Asia, which we will hold in Japan in the near future.”

The Rating entries in Group 1 will be able to enjoy the spectacular Costa Smeralda coastline on daily coastal races, while the One-Design family will take on a mix of windward-leeward races and two coastal race days.

It is a combination that has delighted a new member of the ClubSwan 36 fleet, Ghada G. Barsoum, who has chartered Lady Ghada for the season: “I am in love with  Lady Ghada . I am incredibly proud to represent my country, Egypt, and to be a woman at the helm. This drives me to push my limits and take on new challenges with a fantastic crew. A few months ago, I could never have imagined myself steering such a fast and performing boat, and now, thanks to ClubSwan Racing, I can enjoy the excitement of surfing and skimming the waves.”

And back on shore

The social side ashore has always been an integral part of the Swan experience, and the Rolex Swan Cup takes it to an exceptional level — aided by the sophisticated surroundings of the Yacht Club Costa Smeralda.

Adjoining The YCCS Clubhouse, the Piazza Azzurra square is at the heart of events, most particularly for the after-race refreshments where tales can be told and congratulations — or sympathies— offered in an always convivial atmosphere.

The YCCS Clubhouse itself will provide the inspiring setting for both the Welcome Cocktail on the Monday and Owners’ Dinner on the Thursday, with the YCCS Regatta Village hosting the celebratory Final Prize Giving. Friday’s Rolex Dinner Party will undoubtedly be a highlight of the week at a venue yet to be revealed.

Thanks go to

ClubSwan Racing, as organiser of the season-long The Swan One Design Nations League series, which includes Rolex Swan Cup, would like to highlight the essential support provided by their main partners Rolex, Randstad, Porsche, Henri Lloyd, Ferragamo and Banor.

Marking a special commitment, the Randstad Sailing Team will be racing onboard the Swan 82 Kallima for the 2024 Rolex Swan Cup. “Sailing stands for leadership, communication skills, trust, and flexibility,” says Angela Tenerelli, Marketing & Communication Director of Randstad Italia . “Competing in the Rolex Swan Cup 2024 allows us to showcase these values and offer selected companies the opportunity to experience sailing firsthand.”

A prestigious crew will be racing aboard Kallima – Randstad Sailing Team , including the legendary Paul Cayard, globally renowned sailor Tommaso Chieffi, and multiple world champion and Head of Swan OD Sport Activities, Federico Michetti.

Regatta Schedule:

• Inspection, Registration & Measurements
• Practice Race for OD Classes
• Islands Race
• Final Prize Giving

The Nations League is made possible thanks to its main partners, Rolex, Randstad, Porsche Italia and Banor, as well as technical sponsors Quantum Sails, North Sails, Doyle Sails, Garmin, Sailmon, B&G, Gottifredi Maffioli, AON, Ethimo, and Ferrari Trento.

Sailing giant nautor swan 75-foot motor yacht arrow to debut at cannes.

An overhead view of the 75-foot Nautor Swan power yacht, Arrow, at the August launch from the ... [+] Sanlorenzo shipyard in the Gulf of La Spezia.

The star of the show in sailing yachts since the mid 1960s, Nautor Swan is set to debut their newest power yacht, Arrow, at the Cannes Yachting Festival , September 10-15, 2024. Launched August 28, 2024 at the Sanlorenzo La Spezia shipyard, this elegant, sporty, functional sister cygnet is destined to mature at light speed after her global reveal.

Designed by Nautor Swan power division designer Jarkko Jamsén, with interiors by Ioanna Marinopoulou and Axel de Beaufort, Arrow features a contemporary design with wide open spaces that invite longer, more leisurely cruise experiences. Initially intended to be categorized as a chase boat, Arrow proved her prowess as a stand alone day boat in part due to a rapidly increasing fan base.

The first ever Nautor Swan powerboat launched was the Swan Shadow, followed by an inboard version, the Swan OverShadow, which debuted at Cannes in 2023. As Nautor Group President Leonardo Ferragamo noted, "When it was launched the result was overwhelming as it became a boat of its own, creating its specific niche in our waters and becoming a great day boat." That passion exhibited by the team and shared by the market led to the Swan Arrow, a 75-foot motor yacht displaying the totemic Swan DNA.

Arrow By The Numbers

The Nautor Swan Arrow is built in advanced composites using a mix infused with GRP and carbon. The walkaround design emulates that of a superyacht, but in a more nimble, highly usable format, using less fuel in a more intimate atmosphere. Focused on interaction with the sea, side opening platforms creates a 548 square foot (50 square meter) beach area that floats just above sea level. Convenient fold-down steps take guests right down to the water.

A protected cockpit with an opening roof and pivoting sliding glass doors permits a broad panoramic view. The space refreshes with an al fresco vibe when open, maintaining a cozy feel when enclosed. Designed for comfort, Arrow is versatile in helping guests to enjoy time on board regardless of weather.

Her displacement hull measures 76 feet (23.20 meters) with a 22 foot (6.90 meter) beam and a 6 foot 3 inch (1.90 meter) draft. Her maximum speed is 30 knots in the standard arrangement using two Volvo 1350 D13 Penta IPS engines, or 40 knots with the optional arrangement employing three of the same.

Arrow accommodates six to eight guests and two crew. Descending the stairs, guests looking to port find a dedicated galley that serves the aft master cabin. Reaching across the full beam, the master cabin space boasts a walk-in closet, ensuite bath, and stylish materials typical of Nautor Swan heritage.

Amidships, a VIP cabin and twin cabin, both en suite, deliver private guest spaces. An alternative layout offers two large double cabins with a lounge embracing a starboard salon, L-shaped sofa, and dining area. Away from guest areas, crew space for two is located further forward.

Roy Capasso, Motoryacht Commercial Director and Regional Director SEMEA and Americas, summarized, "When starting the Swan Arrow project we began with attentively listening to our clients and a detailed analysis of the market. The results, together with the creativity of our designer and the expertise of a qualified team have allowed us to introduce a new concept with some features missing in motoryachts of this size, answering the needs of their owners."

On The Horizon

Founded in 1966, Nautor Swan is universally recognized for its performance Maxi yachts and Club Swan Racing yachts, as well as leisure sailing yachts, all built with an elegant, high quality style emphasizing innovation, reliability, and performance. The addition of a power division at Nautor Swan embellishes the brand with a broad appeal, bridging the gap that once separated power versus sail preferences with one brand.

An agreement between Sanlorenzo and Swan for the acquisition of Nautor Swan Group was announced August 1, 2024, but the continuity of the brand is assured through the leadership of Nautor Swan, helmed by Leonardo Ferragamo, retaining the office of President, Massimo Perotti as CEO, and Giovanni Pomati as co-CEO.

The Arrow is not the only Swan with a scheduled debut at the Cannes Show. The Swan Maxi 88 sailing yacht will make her debut, along with the Club Swan 43 . The Swan 88, designed by Germàn Frers with interiors by Misa Poggi, is expected to earn as many admiring looks as the Arrow. The Club Swan 43, designed by Juan Kouyoumdjian, is intended to serve as a racing and cruising crossover enhanced by top of industry technology for competitive one-design sailing and a comfortable cruising environment.
