Nautor's Swan has been committed to formulating a set of effective sustainable development policies and solutions throughout the entire life cycle and experience of Swan's sailboat. This is a method called "green and blue".
The first step of the green method is the navigation itself, which is one of the most sustainable modes of transportation. More than 2000 Swans are still sailing, and their legendary durability is beyond dispute. From the elasticity of the materials used to produce them, to their fast and efficient hull, to minimize energy consumption, Nautor has been a green champion from the beginning.
The second step of the "green and blue" method is that the propulsion system is the key part to make the sailboat more environmentally friendly, but it is not the only one. It also needs to recover green energy from the environment, use less water, reduce the impact of plastic use and waste, and increase the overall sustainability of life on board.
To this end, the manufacturer has developed a series of "green and friendly" options, which shipowners can choose when configuring more environmentally friendly sailboats.
Solar panels, hydroelectric power generation systems (independent or integrated with variable pitch propellers) and wind turbines can be integrated with the most advanced lithium-ion special battery systems.
The efficient water generator and Quooker water system encourage the elimination of plastic bottles and packaging, while providing impregnators and compactors to minimize the impact of waste. Cork deck can even replace teak upon request.
A good example of the company's renewed commitment to sustainability is its new Swan 88. The first sailboat will be equipped with a special jointly developed version of Torqeedo's proven Deep Blue series hybrid power system.
The Dark Blue system includes a power management system for the whole sailboat with variable pitch propeller, which allows users to generate electricity during navigation. The system automatically optimizes the hydroelectric power generation performance according to the navigation speed, and then stores the generated power in the 4x40 kWh LILEAD battery.
This allows the sailboat to use the hotel load quietly within 10 hours, and can carry out 7.5 kn all-electric cruise. For standby power supply and offshore charging, 2x50 kW high power density diesel generator is also installed.
The cooperation with Torqeedo will provide two dedicated deep-blue series hybrid propulsion platforms: one for large sailboats, which has been used on Swan 88 and Swan 78; The other is used for small sailboats, namely Swan 48, 55 and 58, which has a special electric shaft propulsion module package with power ranging from 50 kW to 100 kW. ZF and Torqeedo jointly participated in this development.
In order to complete the high-end application range including maxis larger than 100 feet, high-end market participants such as Siemens and RTN Australia are carrying out specific and confidential new development.
Nautor's Swan was founded in Pietarsaari, Finland, in 1966. The company entered the super yacht market in 1999. Since then, the shipyard has continued to build three different series of high-performance sailboats; ClubSwan, Swan Yachts and Maxi Swan Yachts.
