The Swan 120, the new flagship from Nautor's Swan, debuted at the 2021 Monaco Yacht Show as a concept. A year later, the shipyard showed a photo of the first hull on the go!
The origins of the Swan 120 style
Designer Herman Frers is at the origin of the style and design of most Nautor's Swan yachts. From his office in Buenos Aires, many models of yachts “went out to sea”. In the case of the Swan 120 Audrey the First, the interiors are completely custom made by designer Mark Whiteley.

The hull and deck of the Swan 120 were built entirely from carbon fiber structures. They are also constructed using SPRINT carbon fiber epoxy prepreg and the inner and outer skins are made of M grade EPS.

Now we translate from technical to human. The prepreg system helps provide maximum rigidity and structural strength at the lowest possible weight. At the same time, this design guarantees absolute structural integrity.
About transom and interior
The transom of this model can be tilted hydraulically. This results in a fairly roomy bathing platform, which has a teak floor. What's more, by flipping the transom open, you can open up a spacious garage for a tender. Estimated tender length is 4.5 meters.

Of course, in addition to the tender, a wide variety of water toys should also fit in there. By the way, when the tender is launched, an additional free space appears, which can also be used for sunbathing, dining, etc.

The salon can be easily accessed from the deck through a wide door. Curved glass became the main door. The salon is spacious and roomy. The Swan 120 can accommodate up to eight guests. There are four cabins on the boat - a master cabin, one double and two doubles.
Power Swan 120
Sailing yacht Swan 120 was designed with the possibility of circumnavigating the world. She also has advanced sail control systems. There is a lot of rigging on the deck, but it is very neatly located and does not take away control options from those who like to “sail”.

The yacht also has capacious tanks for water and fuel. Under the salon, raised relative to the rest of the structure, is the engine room in the entire width of the yacht.
Thanks to this, there is excellent access to the 450 hp main engine. In addition, the engine room houses two generators and other electrical and hydraulic systems.

Nautor's Swan was founded in 1966 in Pietarsaari, Finland. The shipyard entered the superyacht market in 1999. Since then, the yard has continued to build high performance sailing yachts in three different lines: ClubSwan, Swan Yachts and Maxi Swan Yachts.
