Design 1973 Swan 43



Pursuant to my previous posting, here is the boat featured in the book, Down Denmark Straight, the Swan 43. We have mentioned this design in passing in these pages before. This was the second model to be designed by the firm for Nautor Swan.

The prototype was completed in 1968. During a production run from 1969-1972, 67 boats were delivered. Here's an early article. Please double click for zoom.
