SWAN 58, THE BLUEWATER ACCORDING TO SWAN
The latest arrival of the Swan Line, the 58, is a true Bluewater yacht, with all the typical features for this purpose, but without any compromise in terms of performance and pleasure in steering the boat. Welcome to the new Swan Bluewater Concept.
Bluewater cruising is a concept that immediately brings dreams of traveling around the world, visiting remote paradises, and meeting native welcoming people. When it’s time to realize this dream and choose the proper boat, however, only then do you start focusing on priorities: safety first, comfort second, autonomy third. Of course, all this comes at a cost-potentially the performance and pleasure of sailing. Well, that is until now… The new Swan 58 was designed around this very concept: a true Bluewater yacht, with all the typical features for this purpose, but without any compromise in terms of performance and pleasure in steering the boat. Welcome to the new Swan Bluewater Concept.
Design: architect German Frers
“The Swan 58 was designed at the same time as its younger sister, the Swan 48. It follows the same well proven and successful canoe body design concept; powerful, well balanced and sea kindly shape that would be safe and a pleasure to sail. On the 58, a true Blue Water yacht intended to sail in comfort anywhere in the world, the bow sections have been softened with the idea of allowing a smoother upwind ride than the sea normally encountered in force 4/5 wind conditions.
The final length was determined after an in-depth study of the interior volume to accommodate three “full size en suite” cabins plus a possible fourth, a comfortable salon, a large galley, along with the space needed to accommodate all the accessories and machinery required by today’s high standards of living, and the need to accommodate a possible temporary crew member. Thanks to the relatively long deckhouse, large windows, numerous hatches, hull windows, and amplitude in the cabin, inside the 58 you get the feeling of being in a much larger, brighter, and well-ventilated yacht. On the other hand, the free edge is lower than the norm.
The anchor is stowed on the integral bowsprit and the windlass on a special watertight compartment below deck. On deck is the typical set of winches near the cockpit and dual steering positions. The cockpit sports twin tables surrounded by more than 2 meters long L shaped settees. At the forward end of the streamlined, uncluttered deckhouse is a dedicated sunbed. Regarding appendages, with the standard twin rudders, the new model offers four keel options, standard, shallow, telescopic, and racing. The racing keel comes with a performance package to match, which may include a square top mainsail, a racing bowsprit, upgrades in rigging and deck equipment. I expect this new model to become a classic that will remain young and active for many years to come.”
Swan 58 – Blanket
Starting with an aft cockpit and following the evolution of the Swan 48 deck layout, the deck of the 58 features some new features never seen on a Swan of this size. The concept is easy: to give the maximum comfort and liveability at rest, together with maximum efficiency for short handed sailing, without losing the capability to race with a full crew. As always, the nerve center is the cockpit, which has been developed following Swan’s signature distribution of spaces: the aft area dedicated to sunbathing and access to the sea, via a wide platform that gives access to the large tender garage; the central part where all navigational maneuvers and helm stations are concentrated; and the bow area, dedicated to guests, protected by the integrated splash guard and easy-to-store bimini. This is a zone where the main novelties are concentrated.
The width of the hull in the cockpit allows an L-shaped bench design served by two separate cockpit tables, these feature additional folding doors to double their size to become a very large single table that can accommodate up to 10 guests in dining mode, and they also have the ability to fold down to convert the seats into a sunbathing area. With all these different positions, the cockpit can be adapted to any possible situation, making this area a fantastic platform for enjoying life aboard in any condition.
The rest of the deck is a combination of areas of comfort, such as the large sundecks at the front of the deckhouse, and practicality, such as the position of the jib trolleys, which give the best trim angle while leaving clear passage in the side passages, or the spacious forepeak, plenty of room to store sails and bulky gear. All this designed with elegant and discrete lines, in the typical Swan style.
Swan 58 – Interior
Designed for proper bluewater cruising, the 58 interiors have been conceived as a combination between luxury and comfortable living spaces, storage and volumes for systems and safety features. The standard layout offers three guest cabins and three heads, with the possibility to add a guest/crew cabin amidships and an extra crew cabin with wc and sink in the forepeak. The salon, which is more than 5 meters long, has plenty of natural light and ventilation, with an overall height of more than 2 meters and a beautiful view through the hull’s large windows. The dinette spans the entire width, providing a dining area that can seat up to 10 people and a table that can vary in size depending on use, facilitating access to the entire seating area. On the starboard side, a range of possible combinations allows the owner to customize this area to suit his or her needs. The galley is designed to be practical both at anchor and under sail, with a 360-degree design that provides support during heeling and numerous worktops accessible both inside and outside the galley. A special cabinet is dedicated to tableware, complete with a removable tray to facilitate the storage of delicate china on board.
The navigation station is offered in five different layouts, from the traditional facing forward chart table to the office-like desk complete with seat and drawers. The forward cabin provides owners with a proper suite where they can enjoy private time without compromise. The bed is oversized (205×165 m) and complete with 3 removable integrated planks that allow it to be used while sailing; it is fully accessible on three sides. Guests have available two en-suite cabins, offered with two possible layouts: two separate beds or one generous queen size. Throughout the boat, storage volumes are available in different shapes, from drawers to lockers to below-seat volumes, to allow the better organization of provisions and personal belongings and make your cruises problem-free.
