Following a very lucrative final quarter of the year 2011, Nautor’s Swan, prestigious builder of luxury yachts are excited about the busy upcoming year 2012.

At the moment, under early stages of production, are two of the newest model to join the SwanLine for 2012, the new sailing yacht Swan 100.  Both Swan 100 yacht projects have commenced before the model has been actively launched to the market, confirming the route that Nautor’s Swan have elected to take in focusing upon cruising practicality and spaciousness of a classic blue water cruiser, combined with the sleek high end performance pedigree of the well-established SwanLine.  The first Swan 100 will be launched and sailing during the summer of 2013.

The number of Maxi’s produced by Nautor’s Swan continues to grow with a superyacht Swan 90, Swan 82 and Swan 80 currently under construction, all due for launch during the summer of 2012.  The Swan 60 fleet continues to grow in numbers with construction underway on a new model, also due for launch for summer of 2012.

In addition to the new builds in the Superyacht and Maxi range, Nautor’s Swan are also at varying stages of construction with four new Swan 53’s, one of the smaller models within the SwanLine with cruising at her core, providing the perfect solution for owners looking for a mid-range Swan which truly reflects Nautor’s philosophy of quality, style and seaworthiness.

Running alongside the construction of the mix of models from the 2012 SwanLine at the yard will be three significant refit projects – a Swan 90 sailing yacht, Swan 82 and Swan 46.  The scope of the project on each is substantial with all three undergoing a complete interior and exterior refit and refurbishment.

Enrico Chieffi, Managing Director of Nautor’s Swan, commented “We are delighted with the progress that we have made through 2011.  The build slots for 2012 are now almost fully booked which in today’s market is a promising start for the New Year.  The new Swan 100S moving from plans and design to a reality under construction with two orders has been an exciting process to lead.   We are looking forward to dynamically promoting her around the world during 2012 and believe many of our existing and prospective owners will be drawn to some of the unique developments she will feature”.

Some of the stunning Nautor’s Swan vessels currently available for luxury charter in the Caribbean include the Swan 112 charter yacht HIGHLAND BREEZE, the Swan 64 sailing yacht CIAO BELLA or the beautiful Swan 90 S superyacht ALIX. Please, feel free to contact CharterWorld for further information.
