Broker Overview

The 2021 Nautor Swan 98, currently located in Valencia, represents a significant opportunity for a discerning buyer seeking a modern, high-performance sailing yacht. This 97-foot schooner, constructed with a GRP hull, embodies Swan's renowned build quality and sailing pedigree, offering a blend of speed, comfort, and safety. While the listing identifies it as a schooner, it is important to note the Swan 98 is typically a sloop or ketch rig, suggesting a potential misclassification in the provided data; buyers should verify the actual rig configuration. Power is provided by a single Cummins QSB6.7 engine, supported by a Northern Lights generator, ensuring reliable auxiliary propulsion and onboard systems. With four well-appointed cabins, she is configured for comfortable long-range cruising or competitive regatta participation. The 'Used' condition for a 2021 yacht implies minimal operational hours and a high likelihood of excellent upkeep, making her a near-new vessel without the typical new-build lead times. This Swan 98 offers a compelling value proposition in the current market for a yacht of this caliber and age, particularly given the strong demand for premium sailing yachts.

Expert Review

The Nautor Swan 98 is a testament to Finnish yacht building, known for its robust GRP construction and exceptional attention to detail. These yachts are designed to perform, offering a superb balance of speed, stability, and comfort in varying sea conditions. Her seakeeping is predictably excellent, providing a secure and exhilarating experience offshore. For a yacht of this caliber, the value for money is strong, especially considering the limited availability of modern performance cruisers. During a survey, pay close attention to the standing and running rigging, sail inventory condition, and ensure all electronic systems are fully operational, as these can be complex. Engine hours on the Cummins QSB6.7 and generator should be low for a 2021 vessel. Comparable alternatives might include high-performance offerings from Wally or Southern Wind, though Swan maintains a unique blend of classic elegance and modern performance.
