Nautor Swan Swan 45-016 BLUE SKY d'occasion

Defined by its pedigree as a four-time Swan 45 World Champion, the Nautor Swan 45-016 BLUE SKY stands as a masterclass in performance sailing engineering. Launched in 2003 and designed by German Frers, this vessel has been meticulously maintained by professional teams throughout its history, ensuring it remains as competitive today as when it first arrived on the racing circuit. The boat features a high-performance carbon fiber rig by Hall Spars, including the mast, boom, and carbon spinnaker poles. Its technical capability is supported by an extensive, regularly updated sail inventory from North Sails, OneSails, and Eurosail. A significant 2018 refit refreshed the teak deck, interior finishes, and core electronics, while a comprehensive maintenance program in 2025–2026 addressed the mast and keel systems, rudder, and hydraulic installations for maximum reliability. Beneath the deck, the 13.83-meter hull accommodates three cabins and one head finished in satin teak. This interior configuration balances the weight and layout requirements of a serious racer with the comfort expected for longer cruises. The 2017 replacement of the keel further enhances the yacht's handling characteristics for owners seeking both speed and control. Currently lying in Liguria, Italy, this used boat is available with VAT paid. Its ongoing service record—including recent hull and systems maintenance—reflects a yacht that has been treated with consistent professional care. Whether for one-design regatta racing or performance-oriented coastal cruising, the vessel remains a highly refined example of Nautor Swan craftsmanship.
