Introducing Valkyrie, a 2018 Swan 54 built for Serious ocean adventures.
We are pleased to present Valkyrie, a superbly maintained Nautor's Swan 54 delivered new in 2018 and cared for since by her current owners, who sailed her from the Swan factory in Finland all the way to New Zealand an extraordinary voyage that speaks to the very capability this yacht was built for. Designed by German Frers, the Swan 54 is widely regarded as one of the finest blue water cruising yachts in her size range, built on Nautor's unwavering focus on reliability, safety, and outstanding sailing performance.
This particular example stands out for her comprehensive specification, offering a rare opportunity to acquire a proven, ocean-capable Swan.
Valkyrie represents everything the Swan philosophy stands for: uncompromising build quality paired with genuine offshore performance. Her carbon mast and boom deliver a lighter, more responsive rig, while her thoughtfully equipped systems ensure comfort and confidence whether coastal cruising or crossing oceans.
Onboard comfort is well catered for, with air conditioning and a generator ensuring livability at anchor, complemented by a full suite of B&G navigation electronics and complete communications equipment for serious passage-making. Additional highlights include full ocean-safety gear to the highest standard, making Valkryie genuinely ready for offshore adventure from day one.
Valkryie offers accommodation designed for comfortable long-range cruising, combining Swan's renowned build integrity with a layout suited to both family cruising and shorthanded ocean passages.
Valkryie is a yacht that must be experienced firsthand to be fully appreciated. Full specification, service history, and survey documentation are available for review. The Swan 54 is a must-inspect for anyone looking to embark on their own ocean adventure aboard one of the best bluewater yachts available today.
