South Freeport, Maine

Long Time sailors appreciate the quality of construction by Nautor Swan, and the superb sailing characteristics of a S&S design. PETREL has been in the same Maine family since 1993. Some of her recent improvements include a new mainsail and 110% jib, and new batteries; a Yanmar 27 hp diesel was installed in 1999. She is essentially original and is now due for some new electronics. Please call us for your inspection and thank you for your interest.
