News from the Swan house! There is a new concept in circulation and it points the way to a new open walkaround of a good 75 feet, elegant and also suitable for cruising. It is, in fact, the new 23.2-meter presented by the Finnish brand, the Swan Arrow, a sporty and classy design that will make luxury and comfort some of its strong points. Designed by Jarkko Jamsén, the new Swan will be a showpiece, strong with a 50-square-meter beach area, lounge areas and remarkable top speeds: up to 40 knots with triple 1000-horsepower engines.
Sundeck, a convivial area in the bow, and a giant stern overlooking the water. These are just three of the elements that will characterize the new Swan Arrow. Sleek and clean, this new yacht enters the “heavyweight” walkaround race. It will be a direct competitor to the
Pardo P75
presented at the last
Cannes Yachting Festival
and future flagship of a hugely successful range?
In the meantime,let’s take a closer look at what we know about this Swan preview.
The eye also wants its share, you know, and the Swan Arrow in this respect shows sophistication. The newly inverted bow and clean lines underscore a light-impact hull, sleeked by the salon and decorated by the broadside windows as well as the classic stripes, the brand’s emblem.
Set as a walkaround, the design comes to life on the deck, with a classic layout developed around the “al fresco” lounge area, which is fully glazed and openable.
In the bow we have a second lounge, where the sundeck and double sofas, served by coffee tables, are central. A convivial area overlooking the sea usable both in roadstead and cruise navigation.
Surprisingly, there is another sundeck area. Where. On the roof of the central hall, reached by a recessed retractable ladder.
Highlight of the project, however, probably turns out to be the aft area. Numbers in hand we are facing, also opening the masonry to a platform on the 50-meter water. Imagine yourself in the crystal clear waters of the French Riviera or in Sardinia, on this beautiful private beach (served with every amenity) and all to yourself.
Let’s go inside. On the deck is a large salon. This one, facing the sea 360° and fully glazed, can open wide to the outside while remaining shaded by the top above, resulting in a veranda on the sea, facing aft to a true beach area. Here, protected by glass windows in case of need, is a convivial area complete with facing sofas and small tables, followed by a bar cabinet. Beyond, of course, is the dashboard, served by dual ergonomic seating.
Moving to the lower deck, Swan offers two distinct layout options. In a first case, accommodating up to 6 guests (plus crew), there are 3 different double cabins. In the bow, a full-beam double cabin complete with en-suite toilet serves as the guest stateroom, mirrored by a larger aft double, the master stateroom, also served by en-suite facilities, but larger and complete with sofa and walk-in closet.
A third cabin, positioned amidships and served by twin single beds, completes the sleeping area. Overlooking this is the galley, complete with every accessory needed for life on board.
In the second layout, however, essentially Swan looks at meeting different needs, offering lounge areas below deck for those who also appreciate spending time in areas other than the convivial outdoor areas. To this end, the single-bed cabin disappears, thus overlooking a sitting room on the galley in front.
Since this is a concept, not all data have been released yet. As of now, in fact, information regarding the performance of the new Swan Arrow is well limited, but two distinct engine options are certainly planned. In a first case, in fact, pushing the Arrow up to 30 knots will be two engines of 1,000 horsepower each. For those who want more power, a third 1,000-horsepower engine can be added: total? 40 knots.
