Swan 61
6 / 17 - score 53%
The Swan 61 is a 60.5ft masthead sloop designed by German Frers and built in fiberglass by Nautor (Swan sailboats) between 1985 and 1990.
14 units have been built.
The Swan 61 is a moderate weight sailboat which is a reasonably good performer. It is reasonably stable / stiff and has an excellent righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a heavy bluewater cruising boat.
This boat has an average score but ranks in the top half. It might be a good tradeoff.
