With a well-established Swan One Design Circuit and a high participation of ClubSwan Yachts in the established regattas, Nautor Swan gives a new boost to the range by introducing the ClubSwan 41.
Design by Juan Kouyoumdjian, the ClubSwan 41 project was announced at the 2022 Cannes Yachting Festival and at the 21st edition of the Rolex Swan Cup organised by Nautor with YCCS and Rolex.
The new ClubSwan 41 is at the cutting edge of contemporary yacht design; a full racer capable of competing in the most captivating races with the possibility to offer a sport-cruising experience.
The yacht was conceived as a One Design package, as per Nautor’s expertise in this segment, which includes a professionally managed class.

She will also be able to take part in dedicated Swan One Design circuits, such as The Nations League and the Swan One Design Worlds.
Importantly, the ClubSwan 41 is also being conceived to be competitive under ORC Category B, so will relish participating in regattas all over the world, providing an exciting range of racing opportunities for owners.
For this innovative project, Nautor Swan’s in-house experts and Kouyoumdjian are combining forces with a leading team of professionals in the field.
Pure Design & Engineering has been entrusted with the engineering, while interiors come from the drawing tables of Lucio Micheletti of Micheletti & Partners. Both companies have delivered high-end results on previous Nautor projects in both racing and cruising.
The ClubSwan 41 will be constructed, as every yacht with Nautor Swan’s signature, without compromise and to the highest standards possible.
Both hull and deck will be built using E-glass in epoxy resin with carbon reinforcements, complemented with carbon mast and boom.
“The ClubSwan 41 is the exciting outcome of our close collaboration with Nautor – a fifth ClubSwan model offering performance and style in both the exclusive ClubSwan One Design race circuit and the established worldwide rating racing events,” said Kouyoumdjian.
“During the last two years, we spent considerable time developing this hull shape for VMG up and down racing, with the required displacement that comes with a stylish and practical interior.
“The sail plan offers a few options to help teams adapt to their preferred racing events, as well as an easily managed cruising mode for short-handed crew.”
The interior design has been envisioned by studying the needs of owners considering this model and combines practicality and comfort for both racing and cruising modes.
“In presenting the interior design of the ClubSwan 41, I tried to focus on the fundamental buoys of our regatta course,” said Micheletti.
“I reduced and simplified the basic concepts and I organised the spaces thinking about all the activities that are onboard. My manta was simplification.”
