Nautor Swan is an iconic name in the sailing world whose current glory is rooted in its history. Founded in 1966, Nautor Swan is recognized worldwide for its performance sailing yachts. The brand's key elements are elegance, quality, performance, innovation, and reliability.

For Nautor Swan, 48 is a magic number. One of the most iconic Swans ever was born in 1971 under this number: the mythical Swan 48. Designed by the best yacht designer of that time, indeed one of the best of all times, Sparkman & Stephens of New York, this iconic yacht won some of the most prestigious offshore races, like the Bermuda Race and Transatlantic Race, and was selected for the Admiral's Cup - the "Formula One" race series of that time.

However, racing was not the boat's main purpose: like any Swan, she was born to be a perfect family cruiser, capable of sailing around the world in total safety and comfort. Quoting from the original brochure: "With many international races behind her - the Swan 48 is keeping up an irresistible challenge as a top-class ocean racer. With the speed of a bird of prey, she combines the luxury and grace that make her the swift, smooth-going Swan of tomorrow. The Swan 48 is equipped to the highest professional standards, and the woodwork has the class given it by the Nautor specialists, who have learned their crafts around the Gulf of Bothnia, where woodwork and shipbuilding skills are traditional. The unique design and professional skills behind the Swan 48 make her the complete ocean cruising racer."

"WINGMAN" has undergone a meticulous overhaul by her current owner, who spared no expense in making this Swan 48 the perfect Racer/Cruiser.
