In build: First Swan 98 nearing completion in Finland

With three units in its new Swan 98 range already sold and in various stages of construction, Nautor’s Swan is making good progress on the line’s first unit which is expected to be launched this upcoming summer season. Under construction at its facilities in Jakobstad, Finland, the first Swan 98 will officially be unveiled during the 2020 Monaco Yacht Show. Nautor Swan 98 under construction Photo: Nautor's Swan

The Swan 98 designed by Germán Frers has been created to be a high-performance vessel that allows for the owner’s unique style to be reflected through a variety of customisations. Owners are offered the choice of two interior layouts that feature the owner’s stateroom located either forward or aft, with the addition of a double and two twin en-suite staterooms.Swan 98 Photo: Nautor's SwanNautor Swan 98 under construction Photo: Nautor's Swan

With a comprehensive list of specifications - including custom features such as skylights across the saloon ceiling and adjustable tables for additional dining and living areas - no two Swan 98 superyachts will be the same. The first unit is being built with a comfortable aft owner layout and an interior that will be finished in a classic navy blue scheme. Dark oak furniture and floorboards with a soft-touch satin finish will add depth to the interior while lighter leather panelling breaks up the darker tones of wood.Swan 98/01 yacht interior designSwan 98/01 yacht interior design

“Nautor’s Swan is excited to introduce the new era of Maxi Swan with the Swan 98 to the world next September,” commented Giovanni Pomati, Group CEO. “She is a modern masterpiece of design and construction, the perfect blend of performance, elegance and luxury.  She is destined to become a timeless superyacht”.Nautor's Swan 98 layoutPhoto: Nautor's Swan
