Is this a 1975 Swan 36 by S&S?
Good day
i m looking to buy a SWAN 36 and found one for sale but the information published by the seller dont seem exact
it says: made buy Nautor Oy Pietarssari Finland year 1975, designers: Sparkman&Stephens

when i looks at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nautor's_Swan

it says that between 1967–1970 were designed by Sparkman & Stephens and 1988–1996 by Germán Frers
wonder if the information in this site is correct wich designer made the boat? have been production of swan 36 between 1970-1988?

Dear Skaspo

is this boat the one ashore in Venezuela?

She should be S&S Swan 36 hull No. 059. I just think the broker gave you a wrong bulding year, as she should be 1968.

Fair winds!

Very interesting way of keeping the boat upright!!! In a little harbour in Portugal called Nazaré a nice old carpenter did the same thing for Luna Menguante. At the beginning I was quite doubtful but it turned out to be very reliable and cheap. It withstood the strong winter North Atlantic winds with no problem.
Moreover: very adjustable in size, totally recyclable and not polluting...
