Scorpio's Nautor 43 Sisters

SISTERSHIPS line

Here are the 14 other Nautor 43 Swans we are aware of (plus one Big Sister). Note that ownership and location details may have changed since Scorpiosail was last informed. Updates and corrections are appreciated.

For specifications of the model, check the FACTSHEET. How do they sail? Check SHOULD I BY A NAUTOR 43?

We would like to find more of the sisters. 24 Nautor 43s have been launched, so there are still 9 unaccounted for.

If you find one, please let us know.

	Hull # 16 SWANeMEER Gert and Janneke sail Swanemeer According to the photo she is now a sloop, but originally she was built and launched as a ketch.
	Hull # 17 SCORPIO Scorpio is sailed by Henrik and Malla, and she is the host of this web site. Her home port is Helsinki, Finland, but she hasn't been there since 1997.
	Hull # 18 CIMBRA Flavio and Paola Nagy sail Cimbra. Her location is Liguria in Italy.
	Hull # 19 KRITSANA (ex Barcarolle) Kritsana is owned by Mikael and Moo (Kritsana) Sjöberg in Timrå (a town near Sundsvall in the Gulf of Bothnia of the Baltic Sea), Sweden.
	Hull # 21 FLOODTIDE II David sails FLOODTIDE II on the east coast of England. On this photo she is at the Orford Ness and she is normally moored at the port of Ipswich.
	Hull # 24 BALTIC GIRL Baltic Girl was the last one built, and one of the four deck house versions. She is owned by Werner and Barbara in Ireland.
	We found CHAMPAGNE on the hard in Chestertown, MD, USA, in the fall of 2001, but didn't get a chance to look for her owner. Six years later we met him, Jim Huber, by coincidence, on the docks in Whangarei, New Zealand, where he visited by air (see report #38) - it is a small world, among the Nautor 43's!
	Harvey and Dawn cruise aboard SOVEREIGN SWAN. Here she is dressed up for Christmas at Cocoa Beach Marina, Port Canavaral, Florida. We have heard on the grape wine that this yacht may be for sale.
	Recent discovery We found this sister on the web. She was for sale in southern Italy. At the time she was flying the Italian colours. She is one of the four deck house versions, so she must be hull # 13, 22 or 23. If anyone knows about her, please send us a note.
	SOLWAY MIST is actually a Big Sister - a Nautor 50 (hull #3). She is owned by Mary and Wayne. Her home port is Galveston Texas.
