The experience of the Finnish shipyard Nautor Swan, the art of German Frers and the dynamic ambition of the actual Italian owners of the make, bring together the sum of the experience and the courage that has culminated with excellent results in this unit.

To sail on the Swan 75 RS Ana Nefeli and to go through its corners and details under the guidance of its Captain is an initiation voyage of marine culture in which Nautor heritage, perhaps the most prestigious shipyard in the world as far as fast sailboats, is transmitted and assimilated in amazing doses.
Almost 60 are the different models launched in the history of Nautor, jointly with great designers like Sparkman Stephens, Ron Holland and since 1988 German Frers; and the experience that it represents, along with the passion that their employees apply into their work, arises in each one of the aspects of the present boat, whether they should be technical or aesthetic, related to the manoeuvre or the comfort. The saga of the Raised Saloon constitutes the latest effort in adjusting to modern times that the shipyard has undertaken by the hand of Frers and its Italian management, conscious of a market that appreciates the enjoyment of the views obtained raising the saloon and to equip it with large windows. The prestige of the Swan 82 RS and the need of not being less in its performance had to be a great challenge in the creation of this 75, that with almost two meters of length less had to offer many of the performances and the spaces already seen on its larger brother but without losing for that reason its harmony, its speed under sail and its marine qualities.
The mentioned experience of the shipyard and the designer match, for that reason, when after going through the cabins to then open lockers or covers and to discover the technical sections, seeing that the ways of manufacturing that have been transmitted and improved throughout hundreds of units, it is time to steer it in light winds and feeling the subtle information that comes to the wheel. The miracle is even greater when the wind increases and the sailboat turns itself into a powerful and at the same time into a tameable machine, in which its protected cockpit and its effective steering positions remember in modern the usual Swan.

STEP LESS DECK
A single level deck means two things: one, that its structure works together and contributes in an effective way to the solidity and the rigidity of the yacht, with the only exception of the space created by the deck house and that has been conveniently reinforced. Another one, important for those onboard, is that moving from one place to the other on the yacht, or life outdoors, is completely free of obstacles.
One leaves the cockpit trough the large gap existing between the two wheels and that, thanks to the back of the seats foreseen there, there is no danger at all. One can chose either windward or leeward, because in both cases the width of the walkway and the support of the coaming, highlighted by the platform of winches and the handrails of the deck house or the stanchion itself, never leaves anyone in the lurch. The topsides rail, elegant in bringing to the deck the pearl grey colour of the hull, welcomes eyebolts for the spinnaker pulleys, fuel inlets and intelligent retractile open chocks, besides receiving the bases of the stanchions. As the mooring bitts are also recessed into the teak, the way remains free from any obstruction down to the mast par tly thanks to the inclined shape of the deck house, that when getting to the shrouds area retracts towards the inside to ease the passage. The mast area welcomes the halyards manoeuvre that, with the Park avenue type boom chosen, concentrates on the main, genoa and staysail in addition to the spinnaker or asymmetric. As the genoa does not need works - its shorten halyard is regulated by an hydraulic drum - the panoply of ropes is directed to both winches located on each side of the mast hole, the ties for the blocks and its corresponding stoppers, that are more than enough and even when taking down reefs. The genoa rails are almost unnoticeable, against the wall of the deckhouse, despite the ropes and the pulleys of its feeders.
Flush hatchways open towards the stern, according to the immovable persistence of Nautor, and teak perfectly arranged extending from there towards the bow, where neither the genoa furler nor the anchorage system, hidden under deck but perfectly accessible, obliterate the flush deck aesthetic effect.

TWO SYMETRICAL BENCHES
Not less effective is the so-called cockpit area, located astern of the deckhouse and where most of the things happen when sailing or also when at anchor. To the already mentioned ideal steering position follows the manoeuvre area protected by the coamings and consisting of four coaming winches, plus a central turret where the main sheet is controlled. This one lacks of a rail but, with the pressure of the hydraulic guy, it can be controlled quite easily.
The mentioned area welcomes perfectly the ropes, that do not need to be transferred to the walkways as it is usual in many sailboats with a large central cockpit, without hindering the passage towards the perhaps most extraordinary place onboard: the two C-shaped benches that protected by the deckhouse but still sufficiently high to enjoy views and the breeze, make the terrace of the yacht and enjoy high back rest complemented with cushions that lean on graceful stainless steel bars. Each one has its own small folding table and its auxiliary furniture that is complemented with the esplanades next to the companionway, while the benches serve as lockers for the life rafts. The passage from the stern makes the use of a bimini, whose frame does not disturb to go in or out from the cockpit, even more attractive, while the tables can be lowered to be transformed into comfortable beds or solariums when levelled with the benches. For the enthusiast of not doing anything they still have the lazarette area, an ample aft deck provided with corner benches, and where the extension of the teak itself is a superb sun lounger. This area hides a garage of considerable proportions seen the size of the yacht, as it can take in a small tender inflated or, even better, one of the required size for a yacht as the 75 deflated but without folding.
