1983 Nautor Swan Swan 46mkI

The Swan 46mkI is one of Nautor's most celebrated designs, with 109 examples built between 1983 and 1997 from the same hull mold—a testament to the enduring quality of naval architect German Frers' work. This is hull number 005 of the mark I version. The 46-foot fiberglass hull measures 14.42 feet across the beam and combines safe, sea-kindly characteristics with exceptional upwind performance. The boat handles steep seas and strong conditions with stability and control, and delivers responsive speed when demanded.

Powered by a single Yammer diesel engine, the Swan 46mkI is built to cruise comfortably over long distances while maintaining the sailing qualities that define the class. The design prioritizes practical seamanship and reliability, making it equally at home in challenging offshore conditions or sheltered anchorages.
