The deck layout

The silhouette view of the deck stands out for its sheer elegance and clutter free deck space.The entire area forward of the mast is totally flush deck.

The interior layout

features a large saloon above the engine room which is accessible through a full height control room. The owner’s cabin forward and four en suite guest cabins amidships offer privacy for all on board. Crew quarters include two crew cabins, two heads and a spacious galley that opens onto the crew mess.

Clean, almost spare lines

and refined detailing give the SW96’s interiors a certain exclusivity. Given that both deck and interiors are the work of the great Nauta Design, the overall impression is of pared- back elegance with everything designed to make life easy.

 

 

The light oak interiors feel cool, sober and bright. As always with SW yachts, the master stateroom, which includes a superyacht of office and bathroom, is forward. The interiors are completed by two two-berth guest cabins aft of the owner’s.”

a yachtsman who previously owned an 80′ custom carbon yacht and is a keen racer. This owner was looking for a larger performance yacht to use in both coastal and transoceanic races and for bluewater cruises.
