The ClubSwan 50 is a high-performance fractional sloop designed by Juan Kouyoumdjian and built by Nautor, with production records indicating a build year of 2015. As a specialized performance cruiser-racer, it combines racing pedigree with cruising amenities, though specific total hull counts are not definitively established in the available data.
- Best for:
- This boat is best suited for experienced sailors seeking a high-performance platform for coastal cruising and short-handed offshore racing, particularly those who prioritize speed and modern electronics over heavy bluewater displacement.
- Bluewater capability:
- With a displacement of 18188.0 lb and a capsize ratio of 2.1, the ClubSwan 50 is designed for performance rather than heavy offshore endurance, making it suitable for protected coastal passages and short offshore trips rather than extended bluewater voyaging.
- Comparables:
- Comparable boats include the Nautor's Swan 48 and 52, as well as other high-performance fractional sloops from the same era like the X-Yachts X-432 or Beneteau Figaro, due to their shared emphasis on lightweight construction, advanced rigging, and racing-oriented hull forms.
