Yacht Description
A real classic. BLACK SWAN is a 40.2m (about 132ft) Camper & Nicholsons sailing yacht from 1898, last refit noted as 2018. You are not chartering a “classic-style” boat here; you are chartering the actual heritage piece.
Easy group setup. She sleeps up to 10 guests across 4 suites, with en-suite bathroom facilities listed for each cabin. Practical, and rare on a yacht with this kind of pedigree.
Proper deck living. Dining works both in the saloon and on the foredeck. Different mood, same plan.
Water time included. For off-the-boat days, you have wakeboard, towable tube, adult and child water skis, kneeboard, kayaks, plus snorkelling equipment (with underwater still camera and underwater video). There is also an outdoor shower for the post-swim reset, along with Wi‑Fi and air conditioning when you want to come back inside.
