I am selling my Swan 36, in excellent condition, 11m, from 1969.
This superb 11m One Tonner, rated JCH with a rating of 8.6236, is ready to participate in all classic sailboat regattas and in particular the Atlantic Cup of the Yacht Club de France.

This Stephens design, successor to Cybèle, prototype of the series and champion of the RORC 1968 is the first of the long series of Swans built by the Nautor shipyard in Finland, renowned for the quality of its productions.

I have the complete history and many documents since its first owner, Barry Davies, who, a friend of the British importer of Hood sails, participated at the time with him in the Irish Sea, in the regattas of the ISORA and the RORC at the beginning of the 1970s.

The boat was completely refurbished by the previous owner in 2015 and the various shipyards and local specialists (hull fittings, rigging, rigging, sails, electronics, radar, AIS, solar panel, heating, etc…)
I bought this boat in 2023 and continued to improve it:
– Standing rigging Sparcraft, fridge and WC in 2023.
– Hiloires varnished in 2024.
– Osmosis treatment, changing some hull fittings in 2025.
