For those who dream of crossing oceans and exploring distant shores, the Swan 54 sailboat stands as a paragon of excellence—a vessel that artfully blends tradition, innovation, and pure sailing pleasure. Crafted by Nautor’s Swan, the legendary Finnish builder renowned for producing some of the world’s finest yachts, the Swan 54 embodies the grace, robustness, and versatility demanded by true bluewater adventurers.
The Swan 54 is the second generation of mid-50’s design for Swan by German Frers. It epitomizes the concept of performance cruiser. Her deck layout ensures easily controlled handling with limited crew while also offering space and comfort for life aboard. Below decks, understated luxury abounds in her 2 head, 3 +1 cabin layout.
Nehalennia's performance enhancements move her from simply a performance cruiser to true racer. She incorporates a custom Hall spar for increased J1 sail area, dual position main sheet allowing end boom sheeting, and upgraded hardware and control systems. Comfort upgrades include dual voltage wiring, genset, water maker and W/D.
Rare is a vessel capable of circumnavigation, nimble enough for island-hopping and regatta sprints, and comfortable enough life aboard. Make your dreams come true.

Descending the companionway, one is greeted by an interior that rivals luxury homes—an oasis of warmth, sophistication, and practicality. Scandinavian artisanship is on full display: satin-finished oak, brushed stainless, and soft fabrics merge to create a welcoming ambiance. The Swan 54’s interior is centered on luminous natural light, excellent ventilation, and intelligent use of space.
The saloon is expansive, with a U-shaped dining area to port and nav station to starboard. The nav station, an office for the skipper, is complete with a chart table, instrumentation, and communication systems. Adjacent is a drop-down TV. Four large hull windows, four fixed cabin ports, and overhead hatches allow the light in and breeze to circulate. LED lighting is subtle and adjustable.
The galley is designed for true voyagers: a deep double sink, gimballed stove and oven, refrigerator and freezer, and abundant lockers for provisions. Upgrades include SS fridge and freezer. The counters are durable and easy to clean, with fiddles to secure items underway.
Accommodations are comprised of three cabins—a spacious owner’s suite forward, a guest cabin midships with pullman, and an aft cabin port. Aft of the galley is a fourth cabin which doubles as a storage area. Each cabin features ample headroom, reading lights, and thoughtfully designed storage. The owner's suite includes an en-suite head and shower, complete with fine fixtures and elegant surfaces. Additional head serve the guest cabins, with teak grating and ventilation.
