SWAN 58
Designed by Germán Frers and built by the iconic Nautor Swan shipyard, WAVEWALKER is a highly compelling Swan 58 that demands serious consideration from buyers seeking a proven, premium performance cruiser without compromise.
Delivered in 2021 and significantly upgraded between 2023 and 2026, she is offered in outstanding condition following substantial owner investment, making this an exceptional and time-sensitive acquisition opportunity in the Swan 58 market.
With her extensive factory specification and carefully selected enhancements, WAVEWALKER stands out as a rare turnkey proposition: a yacht that combines Nautor Swan’s renowned build quality with the upgrades, systems and presentation expected by today’s most demanding owners.
Her pedigree is not theoretical. Campaigned as a successful owner-driver racing programme under the New York Yacht Club, WAVEWALKER has already delivered victories and podium results at major international events, including the Newport Bermuda Race and Antigua Sailing Week. This proven record gives buyers immediate confidence in her capability, competitiveness and pedigree.
For an owner wishing to step directly into high-level regatta sailing, bluewater passage-making or refined family cruising, WAVEWALKER offers an unusually strong combination of availability, condition and proven performance in one immediately usable package.
Accommodation for up to six guests across three well-appointed staterooms ensures she is equally attractive off the racecourse, while upgraded Harken three-speed performance winches, Expedition navigation, carbon fibre steering wheels, premium teak decking and race-prepared antifouling reinforce her readiness for immediate ownership. Opportunities of this calibre are limited, and WAVEWALKER is positioned to move quickly with the right buyer.
