Description
Beautifully maintained Ron Holland-designed Swan 441 with extensive modernisation and exceptional cruising specification. Benefiting from a Beta Marine engine, Berthon topside repaint, Victron electrical upgrade, watermaker, solar charging and comprehensive Raymarine navigation suite, she offers classic Swan pedigree with the practicality expected by today's offshore sailor. Ready for immediate bluewater cruising. Built by Nautor in 1979 to a Ron Holland design, this Swan 441 is a true classic with proven offshore capability. She features a GRP hull, teak decks, skeg-hung rudder, and wheel steering. Her topsides were professionally repainted by Berthon in 2010. Mechanically, she benefits from a Beta Marine 50 HE engine (new in 2010, overhauled in 2021), a ZF gearbox (2021), and a Featherstream folding prop. A comprehensive service history and spare parts inventory underline her excellent care. Upgrades in 2021 included new Rolls AGM house batteries, solar panels, a Victron inverter/charger, a watermaker, and navigation equipment. She's fitted with rod rigging, in-mast furling, and new Dyneema halyards, making her manageable for short-handed sailing. Her electronics package is extensive, featuring a Raymarine chartplotter and radar, AIS, SSB radio, an Iridium GO! (2021) device, and a B&G autopilot and instruments. On deck, she boasts electric winches, a new Vulcan anchor with Mantus swivel (2023), and a well-equipped sail handling setup. Below deck, she sleeps up to eight with a spacious saloon, practical galley, large aft cabin, and warm teak joinery throughout. Safety equipment is comprehensive, featuring a recently serviced liferaft (2024), EPIRB, fire protection, and additional safety features.
