GENERAL

Swan 48

Tassi Vento is an excellent example of one of Nautor’s Swan most successful models. With 50 hulls launched between 1986 and 1994, the Swan 53 is big enough to handle any ocean yet small enough to be sailed by two. She is a very powerful and solid boat, all the while maintaining a high degree of performance. She is a pleasure to sail and inspires confidence in any conditions.

ACCOMMODATIONS

Tassi Vento has the standard Swan 53 three stateroom layout. The owner’s cabin aft is full width with a centerline queen berth. There are two staterooms forward of the main salon. The port stateroom is the larger of the two. Both staterooms have over and under berths.


The main salon is truly spectacular, and feels like the salon on a much larger yacht. The beautiful hand-rubbed teak is of the highest quality available and has a deep rich luster, unlike the inferior grades found in most modern yachts. To port is a large “L” shaped couch surrounding a drop leaf teak dining table. Across from the couch is a fixed settee that hinges forward to reveal a generator underneath. To starboard is a full navigation station with more than ample room for all navigational equipment. Forward of the nav station is an entertainment area with TV and stereo. The overall feeling is one of warmth, luxury, quality, and spaciousness.

GALLEY

The galley on Tassi Vento is sensibly located aft of the main salon on the port side and is an excellent “sea galley”. The double stainless steel sinks are inboard and near centerline for good drainage on both tacks. Above the sinks is a dish drying cabinet. Aft of the stove is a large freezer and forward is a front loading refrigerator. The freezer and refrigerator are temperature controlled independently with monitors above the stove. The stove is the much preferred Alps, with three burners plus a hob.

 

ELECTRONICS

Tassi Vento has a full, dedicated navigation station. Outboard of the nav seat is the main electrical panel with amp and volt meters for both AC and DC, indicator lights and alarms for various systems including refer compressor, bilge, holding tank, water pressure pump, water in fuel, and heater. Behind the nav seat is a LED panel with indicators for both DC and AC systems
