Nautor Swan is officially building the Swan Alloy 44. This 43.45-metre vessel will be the largest sailing yacht in the yard’s history.

Furthermore, this exciting project celebrates the company’s 60th anniversary. It represents a huge step into the large aluminium sailing yacht market. As a result, the brand expands its technical and design capabilities.

Naval architect Malcolm McKeon designed the yacht alongside Nautor Swan’s new Italian division. Therefore, the vessel highlights the next evolution in the brand’s superyacht portfolio.

Currently, the team is completing the aluminium hull and deck. Afterward, they will move the yacht to Viareggio for final outfitting and delivery.
