Summary

Behold the Nautor Swan 40, an emblem of maritime heritage and timeless elegance. Nestled in the sun-soaked environs of Fort Lauderdale, USA, this charismatic 12.19-meter vessel beckons its new owner. Born in 1971, this sea-farer is the embodiment of resilience - presenting a pristine white GRP hull that has been treated with four mm gelcoat and further fortified with velvet mat layering and re-gelcoat application. Keel and rudder exhibit innovation, a custom design to create a boat that's 250 pounds lighter and tracks 24 degrees apparent, meaning less helm steering and greater stability. Engine and gearboxes also offer enhanced performance, stemming from Morse single throttle system and newly installed throttle cables.

Domestic convenience is at hand with CNG stove and oven, dedicated shower system, air-conditioning throughout, and lighting innovation. Interior-wise, the boat boasts prima vera wood bulkheads with solid teak doors, custom-made teak ventilation in main saloon, and teak and holly floorboards amongst other comforting features. The rig presents the cutting edge Harken roller-furling system with a variety of new installations. Ample storage space is provided with an entertainment centre replacing the port-side pilot berth. Safety gear is also included, with an 8-man liferaft and fire extinguishers amongst the inclusions, making this Nautor Swan 40 not only a symphony of luxury, but a fortress of safety. At an asking price of $100,000, this captivating vessel offers unmatched value. Don't miss the chance to be the captain of this illustrious sea-craft. Let the Nautor Swan 40 take you on the voyage of your dreams.
