Nautor Swan has launched the ClubSwan 43, a yacht designed to push the boundaries of sailing. Designed by Juan Kouyoumdjian to embody the spirit of precision naval architecture, the ClubSwan 43 represents a cutting-edge yacht that combines state-of-the-art technology with timeless craftsmanship, delivering a new sailing experience for enthusiasts and professionals alike.
The ClubSwan 43 has been conceived as the perfect crossover: a complete racer able of competing in the most captivating races worldwide and with the option of a ‘racing-cruising’ experience.
‘The project with Nautor Swan begun with the aim of creating a yacht that performs not only in One Design but also within the ORC classes. The task was not easy, but we have come up with a design that satisfies both of these racing worlds, thanks in part to the continuous discussions we had with sailors and end users, which have improved the entire project’, states Juan Kouyoumdjian.
The ClubSwan 43 seamlessly integrates advanced solutions with elegant design features to offer a vessel that excels in every aspect of sailing. From its sleek lines and aerodynamic profile to its innovative rigging and handling, every detail of the ClubSwan 43 has been meticulously crafted to optimise performance and inspire confidence in any sailing conditions.
Moreover, the yacht has been developed as a One Design package, equipped with a standard One Design keel that can be optimised in order to compete also on ORC circuits and the OD sail plan includes a powerful square-top mainsail allowing for an agile and precise performance.
Thanks to Nautor’s expertise in this sector, which includes a professionally managed Class – the new yacht will be able to shine at the exclusive Swan One Design Circuits, such as The Nations League and the Swan One Design Worlds.
Furthermore, the ClubSwan 43 features a spacious and elegantly furnished interior by Micheletti+Partners, offering adaptable accommodation for extended cruising or relaxing moments at sea.
The design of the interiors is made with such flexibility that the client can remove 80% of the interior for a race and re-install it afterwards to return to cruising comfort.
The model will debut at the Rolex Swan Cup 2024 to celebrate the 22nd edition of this iconic and unmissable regatta competing in the Swan One Design Division.
