Swan 651
Description
The Swan 651 represents one of Germán Frers' most ambitious early designs for Nautor, created as a sophisticated blue water cruiser-racer that epitomizes 1980s luxury sailing yacht design. Built from 1982-1991 with only 19 boats completed, this exclusive model showcases the transition period when Swan evolved from racing-focused designs toward luxury cruising yachts.

Sailrite does its best to publish accurate dimensions, but we often find it worthwhile to have our customers measure their boats carefully before we produce kits for them.
