Swan: A Unique Story by Bianca Ascenti

"Swans are very special. They are special because of the way they are built, the way they are designed, the people that sail them. It is a way of living, it is a way of sailing." -German Frers For close to half a century, Nautor's Swan has been the true sailor's choice, designing and building luxurious, high-performance yachts in northern Finland. The value of a Swan is derived from the company's strong heritage, skilled craftsmen, and pursuit of excellence in every aspect of the build. From the design process to production, the best-quality materials and innovative technology are used to deliver the most elegant and safest sailing yachts in the world. Working together with the Frers design team in Milan and Buenos Aires for close to two decades, Nautor's Swan is committed to designing and building the most seaworthy and stylish sailing yachts in the world. Impeccable hull lines, nimble performance, and uncompromising comfort are the trademarks of a Swan's design.
