“The next Swan model was designed contemporarily with the smaller sister, the Swan 48 presented to the public last year. It follows the same well proven and successful canoe body design concept; powerful, well balanced and sea kindly shape that would be safe and a pleasure to sail.
On the 58, a true Blue Water yacht intended to sail in comfort anywhere in the world, the forward sections have been softened with the idea of giving her a softer ride upwind against the sea normally encountered in force 4/5 wind conditions.
The final length was settled after a thorough study of the interior volume, this new model, as required to fit three full size en suite cabins plus a possible four, a comfortable saloon, ample galley, together with the space necessary to fit all the complements and machinery required by today high standards of living, and the necessity to accommodate an eventual temporary crew member.
Thanks to the relatively long coach roof, large window areas, numerous hatches, the hull ports and full headroom throughout there is a feeling inside the 58 of being in a much larger luminous, well ventilated yacht. On the other hand, the freeboard is lower than the norm. She is elegant and sleek.
The anchor is stowed on the integral bowsprit and the windlass on a special watertight compartment below deck.
On deck there is the typical array of winches close to the cockpit and the double steering positions. The cockpit sports twin tables surrounded by more than 2 meters long L shaped settees. At the forward end of the uncluttered coach roof there is a dedicated sun-bed.
Regarding appendages, with the standard twin rudders, new model offers four keel options, standard, shallow, telescopic and racing. The racing keel comes with a performance package to match, which may include a square top mainsail, a racing bowsprit, upgrades in rigging and deck gear.
I expect this new model would become a classic that will remain young and active for many years to come”
