Swan 68 – Explotadot
In 2000 this yacht was sold to its second owner and transferred to the Baltic Sea under the name “Cygnus Montanus,” in 2004, her third owner moved her to southern Italy under the name “Cardillo Forever” and performed the first major refit in 2006/2007 where many systems were upgraded and a new maneuvering propeller was installed. In 2013 the boat was sold to its current owner and spent most of 2014 undergoing a complete refit in Genoa, and in 2019 it underwent a new refit to be ready to cross the Atlantic and Pacific. Today Explotadot is located in Palma de Mallorca, Spain.
Built in 24 examples between the 1991 and the 2004, the Swan 68 designed by Germán Frers is among the most successful yachts produced by the Finnish Nautor’s Swan shipyard. Solleone, this is the original name of Explotadot, was built in 1993 for the shipyard’s president and was the first Swan 68 to have four guest cabins with a galley layout forward.

INTERIOR
All visible parts of the interior are teak with a satin finish, and the floors are made of laid teak veneer, allowing quick access to the bilge. Lighting is LED throughout the yacht, with red night lights and reading lamp for each berth.
