Description

Robert and Lesley Swan who have sailed together in New Zealand Waters and around the world for over 50 years.

Starting with the inspiration to build and sail a sixteen-foot Trailer Sailer then progressing on to the building and sailing yachts capable of offshore voyages.

When cautioned of the danger to their health if they continued boatbuilding with fiberglass, they took advantage of opportunities presented to them, purchasing, refurbishing, then sailing offshore several classic yachts designed by some of the world’s famous yacht designers.

On voyaging to Tasmania, they settled on Bruny Island for a while before returning home to Aotearoa. Together they have amassed over 150,000 nautical miles, escaping the loss of any vessel relying on their attention to detail, their careful planning, their own resources and a joint love of the sea and adventure.
