One of the members of the S&S Swan Association who visited us a couple of weeks ago sent us this nice image of his Swan 411, Corazon. Nice looking boat.

The Swan 411 is one of quite a few models we designed for Nautor between 1967 - 1989. 42 hulls were built to this particular design between 1977-1979. The 411 was an improvement on the Swan 41 class of boats.

If anyone has ever trolled around in a sportfish they have probably experienced unpleasant rolling at one time or another. This unique sportfisherman was designed with a small sailplan whose primary purpose was steadying. I could imagine in certain conditions one could troll under sail power along. What a joy that would be: complete silence and no diesel fumes. The crow's nest is also helpful for spotting fish. She was built by Freeport Point Shipyard in Long Island for a Venezuelan client. It's interesting that she is American flagged.


Features include twin spade (and balanced) rudders, a refrigerated fishwell, fighting chairs and outriggers. Power is derived from twin 3-cylinder G.M. diesels producing a top speed of 10 knots and a cruising range of 550 nautical miles. She was launched in 1957.
