Beautiful, classic Swan 41 from 1974. The boat is a Sparkman & Stephens design, built to Lloyd's specifications. It is produced by Oy Nautor AB, a Finnish manufacturer of luxury sailing yachts, based in Jakobstad, known for its Nautor's Swan series of yachts.
This is an absolutely fantastic sublime sailing yacht - beautiful so it hurts - with sailing characteristics in a class of its own
She is built by Finnish Nautor Swan, known for their quality and uncompromising solutions throughout the production of the individual yacht!
"Chinacat", like all Swan boats, is built for Deep Water Cruising – in Business Class. "Chinacat" is a very special yacht with an uncompromising approach to quality and sailing characteristics. Everywhere attention is paid to the detail and the practical functions, which are managed in ALL conditions. This, combined with an exceptional quality of boatbuilding work, means that she will always be an "Eye-Catcher" - and a much admired ship, wherever she appears!
The current owner is the third owner of "Chinacat" and has owned her since 2018. The previous owner cherished her for 35 years. Between 2010 and 2018, she was carefully stored in a hall on land. Both the previous and current owner have used her for cruising through Swedish, Norwegian and Danish waters. In addition, the previous owner participated in some local races.
"Chinacat" has sailed exclusively in Scandinavian waters and thanks to the region's short sailing season (from May to October) she shows minimum wear. Under the current owner's ownership, investments have been made, among other things; new electronics, a spray hood, cockpit tent, winter cover, lazy jack/cover, bow platform, stainless steel propeller shaft, a three-bladed folding propeller, re-grouting of the teak decks, as well as thorough varnish work below deck.
This Swan is very well maintained and has a fine teak deck as well as a beautiful original lacquered teak canopy in a matt finish with new cushions in the saloon and cabins.
