Nautor Swan 55, SWAN VALHALLA

Nautor Swan, Nautor Swan 55 Built 1974 / €180,000, VAT paid

Broker’s Comments

The Sparkman and Stephens Swan 55 is a legendary yacht – second only to the S&S Swan 65 – they are considered one of the most attractive, high quality and top-class sailing yachts of their day (and also, by many, of today!).

Swan 55 number 012 Tauranga (now Gandalf) and 55-013 Walross III both participated in early Whitbread Round the World Races. However more recently, a close sister S&S 55 yawl Galliana, sailed the 2023-24 Ocean Globe Race, proving that these yachts are still tough, fast, go anywhere yachts.

SWAN VALHALLA is hull number 55-016. She was the last S&S 55 delivered (almost 3 years after 015). She is a yawl rig version. Her first name was Travel. The first Swedish owners were serial Swan owners. Prior to the 55, they had, to my knowledge, a 43 and a 48. Subsequently they owned an S&S 65 and a 76.

Since her first owners, she has passed through several owners since and many upgrades and refits – but has always been loved as well. She has cruised, chartered and raced.

A new owner may choose the course he wishes to sail in future – whether this be continuing her role as a Med based family sailing yacht, making ocean crossings, Ocean Racing or competitive sailing at events like the Swan Cup, St Tropez or Argentario Sailing week, and the like (or all of the above!).

Owner’s Comments

We chose SWAN VALHALLA as she is classic and perfectly sized, a beautiful ex S&S racer with great pedigree. At sea trial she sailed in 22 knots wind with all sails up and no reef. We wanted a pedigree racing boat for Fastnet, Arc, Caribbean 600 and Swan Rolex Cup combined with a great long distance cruising boat.

She handles beautifully and very comfortably in strong winds. As these conditions are becoming more frequent this kind of long deep keeled classic racer is the perfect boat. No reef is required until 21-22 knots wind speed when close hauled. She will cruise at 8-9 knots in 20 knot winds very comfortably, and at 7-8 knots in anything above 15 knots with full set of sails and no reef.

Previous owners chartered SWAN VALHALLA and Swan GALLIANA for match racing and sail training. Many admirers stop by to say they have done their RYA yacht masters on a transatlantic passage or in the West Coast of Scotland.

Here are some regattas and events that SWAN VALHALLA took part in: Swan Guernsey Regatta 2011, Fastnet 2012, ARC 2013 (lying first position after 40-50 knot windstorm), Caribbean 600 2014, Swan Rolex Cup Sardinia 2017.

SWAN VALHALLA was moored in Beaulieu River 2010-2013, in English Harbour in Antigua 2013-2015 Beaulieu River again in 2015. She cruised from the Solent to Mallorca in 2016, and has been in Porto Petro, Mallorca on a swing mooring since 2016. We totalled over 10,000 total miles of passage making, not including short trips in the Balearics and circumnavigation of Mallorca.

We now have other family commitments and share other boats. We have owned her together for 14 wonderful years.

Nautor's Swan Yachts for Sale

The Nautor’s Swan shipyard is located in the small Finnish town of Pietarsaari, just a short distance from the Arctic Circle. On this icey stretch of coast, Nautor’s Swan have been building boats since 1966 and the Swan range is known throughout the world. In a build environment where temperatures can fall to minus 30 degrees celsius, and the sea can be frozen for up to five months of the year, advanced engineering excellence is a core part of the yard’s DNA.

Nautor’s Swan handles everything from the design to the finest details in a fully integrated in-house building process. The smaller Nautor’s Swan hulls, for cruising yachts, are hand laid-up and vacuum-infused, while the larger models are constructed in foam-core carbon, which has huge weight-saving benefits.

Swan yacht buyers can also enjoy membership of ‘Club Swan’ – a non-profit organization for past, present and future Swan sailing yacht owners. The Club organizes various regattas, including the ‘Rolex Swan Cup’, the ‘Swan European Regatta’ and the ‘Swan American Regatta’ and these are run in association with the Yacht Club Costa Smeralda, the Royal Yacht Squadron of Cowes and the New York Yacht Club, respectively.

Today, with more than 50 years’ of heritage, Nautor’s Swan is globally recognized as an undisputed leader in the international sailing market.

History of Nautor’s Swan Yachts

The Nautor’s Swan Shipyard was founded in 1966 by Pekka Koskenkyla, a man with an inspiring vision to produce high-quality, high-performance sailing yachts for those passionate about cruising, racing and seeking contact with the ocean and nature. Pekka, educated in the USA, had the foresight to engage Sparkman & Stephens of New York, one of the most acclaimed yacht designers at the time, to design the first sailing yacht. The vessel was built in fiberglass and trimmed with wood – materials which would dominate the production of vessels in the years to come.

The first sailing yacht model from the Nautor’s Swan shipyard was the Swan 36, and this led to the Swan 37 and Swan 43, with the latter winning the Admiral’s Cup in 1969.

That same year, fate’s fickle hand dealt the Nautor’s Swan yard a catastrophic blow. The Assembly Hall caught fire and burnt to the ground, destroying with it a dozen hulls in various stages of production. Pekka was forced to sell stakes in the company to finance the yard’s rebuild and see production resumed.

When the yard was re-established, the larger and more elegant Swan 55 and Swan 65 yachts were born. Partnering cruising capability with racing prowess for the typical owner and recreational yachtsman, the designs were immensely popular. Testament to their racing ability, it was a Swan 65 (named SAYULA II) that won the first Whitbread Round the World Race in 1973/74.

In the late 70’s and early 80’s, Nautor’s Swan engaged naval architect Ron Holland as their designer of choice. Holland designed five boats for the yard, of which approximately 300 units were produced.

The mid to late 80s saw Swan enter another new era of design, this time with the appointment of German Frers. Along with a string of great successes in models under 80 foot (24m), Frers was also responsible for Swan’s first Maxi models; the Swan 80, Swan 90, Swan 100, Swan 105, Swan 110 and Swan 115 – with the 115 seeing the yard cross over into superyacht territory.

Frers’ contribution to Nautor’s Swan also permitted them entrance to the ‘one design’ racing sector, with the design of the Swan 45 in 2001. This was followed by the ‘Club Swan 42’ in 2005 which was developed in association with the New York Yacht Club.

In 2002, a new yard, close to the sea, was opened in Jakobstad. The new yard is dedicated to the assembly of the Maxi Swans, building the Swan 60 through to the Swan 115.

In 2017, Nautor’s Swan opened their Boatbuilding Technology Center. Here, there are facilities dedicated to joinery and high-tech lamination, a post-cure oven, painting halls, and areas for warehousing and logistics. The close proximity of the engineering and manufacturing departments results in an efficiency that is rarely seen.

Nautor’s Swan has been controlled and managed by Leonardo Ferragamo and his group of investors since 1998.

Nautor’s Swan is recognized as a leader in the international sailing market.

The Nautor’s Swan collection

Known today as ‘Swans’, the modern yachts built by Nautor’s Swan owe their success and acclaim to the original Swan 36. This first design, which featured a number of significant innovations, offered a level or performance and safety that equalled that of traditional wooden vessels yet the lighter fiberglass hull provided greater steering ability and enhanced living space. The Swan 36 marked the beginning of what would become one of the most prestigious boat yards in the world.

The Swans of the ‘70s and ‘80s were designed by the award-winning naval architect Ron Holland. German Frers took over as Swan’s naval architect of choice from the mid to late 80s, and he designed many highly successful models under 80 foot (24m) for the shipyard.

Swan’s first Maxi yacht models were also designed by Frers: the Swan 80, Swan 90, Swan 100, Swan 105, Swan 110 and Swan 115. The 115 brought Nautor’s Swan into the superyacht sector and the skills of Frers’ have again been employed for the design of Swan’s latest sailing yacht, the Swan 120.

Whether you’re looking for a pre-owned Swan or considering a new build from the Nautor’s Swan Shipyard, Northrop & Johnson are able to advise on every aspect with brokers who have specific sailing yacht knowledge and experience.
