Nautor Swan 601

Comments

The Swan 601 is a high performance sailing yacht - very light for her size and designed to sail at high speeds. She embodies the Nautor's Swan vision of a top class IRC design Racer/Cruiser. She utilizes the most advanced building techniques and materials, without compromising on the classic lines and beautifully crafted interiors, which are associated with every Swan built.


The extensive use of carbon fibre in her structure makes this model particularly stiff for her weight and capable of outstanding performance.

The result is a truly competitive model without the restrictions of stripped out racers that make few concessions to cruising comfort. We project managed the build of this particular model and she was designed to be both raced and cruised short handed as required. The owner has enjoyed very close racing with excellent results in last years Swan Maxi Cup circuit in the Med and has also completed a Arc race with non sailing fiends on board.

Spirit has been carefully designed both in terms of deck layout and exterior finish to provide a striking looking boat which races very competitively under IRC as well as providing a comfortable home whilst cruising and racing offshore.
