2026 Swan Heritage Reunion |
|
Capraia Island, 19 . 20 . 21 June 2026
this June we are organizing a truly special event, the first of its kind, dedicated to all Classic Swans. By this we mean, of course, the Sparkman & Stephens Swans, followed by the second generation designed by Ron Holland, and finally the Swans designed by Germán Frers and built through the end of the 1990s. This is not a regatta. It is simply an occasion to be together, owners and sailors united by a shared passion for the Classic Swan, regardless of the designer. Our initiative has been warmly welcomed by Nautor, who has kindly granted its support. We also enjoy the full support of Capraia and its excellent marina facilities, which will host the event. All owners are most welcome to join us. Those coming from afar, who may not have the opportunity to reach Capraia with their own Swan, are equally encouraged to attend and be part of the gathering. We will meet on June 20 in Capraia, where we will celebrate our passion with a drink kindly offered by Nautor. On that same occasion, we will decide together the sailing program for the following day. Depending on the weather, this could be a sail around the beautiful island of Capraia or, if the wind allows, a passage to Corsica and back. Alternatively, should the wind fail us, we will simply sail together to one of Capraia’s charming bays and enjoy a swim. In the evening, a special dinner will be held in front of the boats, organized by Monika, owner of the renowned restaurant Pescianel, who together with her team will prepare an unforgettable dinner with local seafood. If you are planning to join us, please do not hesitate to get in touch. This promises to be a truly memorable gathering for all those who love the most beautiful Swans ever built.
