Nautor Swan has very fittingly chosen a 50’ to celebrate its 50th year in business and commissioned the project from one of the most sought-after designers on the scene, Juan Kouyoumdjian.
The Argentinean certainly has the CV for the job as he already has America’s Cuppers, Volvo 70s, IMOCAs and a long string of competition craft ranging from TP52s to the 80’ Rambler, to his credit. This is first non-Frers Swan, in fact, and is the result of a competition held by Nautor Swan to find an innovative design that combined new technologies and materials with an iconic, elegant look. The yard’s chairman Leonardo Ferragamo has described the resulting ClubSwan 50 as:
“A breathtaking yacht aimed at younger and competitive sailors that still delivers the pleasures of cruising in true Swan spirit.”
