Swan models are alive even after years of production. Listening to customers, captains, testing and experiencing Swan’s boats continuously, both cruising and racing, the yard evolves and improves their models constantly.
With this in mind, after more than 50 units sold of the iconic Swan 48, the team at Nautor collected a number of improvements to be converted into standard and optional items that led to the Swan 48 MKII.
On deck the innovations include a new bowsprit design and new chainplate position, while the coachroof features a new design for the windows. The transom door is now opened by a system of hydraulic pistons to enhance functionality.
The interiors feature an innovative Corian design with rounded corners and a lower galley curved furniture style. A more comfortable sofa design: enhancing storage volumes and some other optional additions add a very high level of comfort onboard.
The hull lines are designed by maestro Germán Frers as a combination of performance, comfort at sea and liveability both on deck and inside the yacht. The result is a very well-balanced hull, with a new design for the bowsprit, giving great functionality for the anchor and tack line.
The hull is optimised to give max performance heeling at 20 degrees, leaving the boat comfortable and fully liveable at sea in any condition. The twin rudder configuration enhances the balance of the boat, preventing the broaching tendency and therefore giving back full sensitivity and pleasure while steering at full heeling angles. At the same time, the reduced draft of the double rudder blades increases the cruising ability, allowing access, together with the highly efficient T shaped contained draft keel, to shallow waters and smaller fishing harbours. On the racing front, the 48 MKII, perfectly in line with Swan tradition, is conceived to be a winner. Waterlines are designed with performance in mind and the full package is set up for getting the best even by a non professional crew.
With classic style and elegance from Misa Poggi’s pencil, the Swan 48 MKII boasts an interior arrangement providing a clear feeling of space and volume.
The three cabin layout comprises the owner forward with a private head, a VIP cabin starboard and a guest cabin portside, both aft.
The two heads are a statement of comfort and space, both with a fully separate shower compartments, with tempered glass shower doors.
Located at the centre of the boat, the main saloon is open wide, with a C shape sofa with an optional lowering/sliding/folding table for greater flexibility. Natural light irradiates from three different levels, giving brightness to the whole space.
The chart table on the starboard side, comes in three different layouts: flipper style, forward facing with seat and storage or with table and sofa.
The galley configuration offers a 360° range of movement in all conditions, with a domestic size fridge and valuable volumes for storage, with new optional galley lockers above galley sink and new top surface design in Corian, with rounded corners, easier to clean.
The soundproofed engine room guarantees good accessibility and includes a dedicated space for an optional genset
For styling and finishing, the Swan 48 MKII maintains the four different moods proposed by our interior designer Misa Poggi: Swan Soul, which embodies the typical Swan style, Scandi Vision inspired by Scandinavian design, and Velvet Vibe Red and Velvet Vibe Blue, which reflect a warm atmosphere and a more intense taste.
These styles make a degree of customisation is possible, making every Swan 48 MKII unique and close to the owner’s lifestyle.
