Swan Jubileum Regatta 2016

Nautor Oy:n ensimmäinen vene rakennettiin mahongista. Sen perusteella valmistettiin muotit lasikuituveneiden sarjatuotantoa varten. Mahongista veistetty ensimmäinen Swan purjehtii edelleen Catharina II-nimisenä kotipaikkanaan Helsinki. Ensimmäinen lasikuituinen vene sai nimekseen Tarantella. Sen purjenumero on nykyisin FIN-36001 ja veneen omistaa Nautor Oy.

In 1966, which was the first year for Nautor Oy, the very first Swan boat was built of mahogany. This yacht was benefited, when the serial production of 36 feet GRP Swans started. The only wooden Swan, which carries the name Catharina II, is still sailing and is in good condition. The first GRP Swan was named as Tarantella. She carries the sail number FIN-36001, and is owned by the Nautor Oy.
