Few names carry as much weight in offshore sailing as Nautor Swan, and this 2000 Swan 60 — penned by the legendary German Frers — is a testament to why. Stretching 19.35 metres with a powerful 5.35m beam and a serious 3.3m draft, this is a yacht built to eat ocean miles without apology. The Finnish yard's obsessive build standards are evident throughout: tight tolerances, flawless gelcoat integrity, and hardware specified for real offshore passage-making rather than marina posturing.
Below decks, the three-cabin arrangement delivers genuine liveaboard comfort without sacrificing the structural rigidity that makes a Swan so exceptional at sea. Currently based in Tahiti, French Polynesia, she is positioned at the gateway to the South Pacific — arguably the world's finest bluewater cruising ground. Swan 60s of this vintage hold their value with remarkable stubbornness, and finding one available at EUR €785,000 represents a compelling entry point into a yacht that routinely commands attention in any anchorage on the planet.
Serious bluewater buyers shortlisting performance cruisers at this level owe it to themselves to inspect her.
