Nautor Swan Sailboats 36 for sale in Chichester United Kingdom

Remarks :

A rare opportunity to purchase a treasured, well-maintained and much loved Swan 36 cruiser/racer built in 1968 by Nautor Swan in Pietarsaari, Finland. Universally recognised as a true classic of her time, well admired and envied wherever she sails with beautiful lines and underwater profile that makes her a most stable, seaworthy yacht of distinction.

"Flyover" is one of the earliest Sparkman and Stephens designed Swan 36s, hull No. 009 out of a total of over 90 built between. She has been built to the very highest standards according to and exceeding Lloyd's 100A1 requirements.

"Flyover" has been in current ownership for past 28 years with regular annual additions and upgrades. She has sailed cruised and raced the English Channel and beyond, taking part in competitive club racing and cross channel regattas, participating in the regular biannual Swan Rendezvous in Guernsey and Swan Europeans in Cowes, Cowes Classics Week, and Round the Island Race winning the Renaissance Trophy five times in the Classic Yacht class. She is a fast, successful, beautifully balanced and comfortable dry vessel, well set out below to accommodate up to 7 crew in a traditional yet modern layout for her time.

As the years are now catching up with her current owners "Flyover" is seeking a new caring owner to take over and enjoy her for many more years to come.
