Yacht description

She is hull # 4 and is in excellent condition being maintained by a full time Captain. The Swan 42 has many functions, with being able to race under a one design format, or under IRC, or very successful under ORCi, in Europe or if so desired, take the family for a week's long jaunt.

Several new Doyle sails in 2015 to go along with the other 25 bags of sails from different years, B/G wind gear, radar, she lacks for nothing to compete either inshore or also has several specialty offshore sails.

MUTINY is an excellent option to compete at a high level under many options.

A true all around dual purpose racer/cruiser
