1996 Nautor Swan 44 MKII

TOMBOY is a shining example of a two-owner MKII beloved by the same owner since 1998. As one of the first MKII’s ever produced it was befitting she was featured as the cover model for Swan’s fleet brochure. She has spent her entire life cruising San Francisco Bay, never chartered or raced. And it shows. Under the watchful eye of Swan dealer and service provider at KKMI, no expense has been spared in the meticulous maintenance of this pedigree yacht.

Most notably this past year a new Volvo D-2 50hp engine & saildrive were installed by KKMI. While at the yard she also benefitted from new upper and lower rudder bearings. A labor-intensive job her next owner won’t have to consider for years to come. Her exhaust hoses were replaced when the owner dropped in fresh batteries. She also sports fresh bottom paint with PropSpeed. Invoices for this work alone total over $85,000.

Her offshore cruising capabilities are top notch. Large genoa tracks add versatility for trimming and sail selection. A slick Navtec tuning station allows the helmsman to equalize the ship’s hydraulics while running back stays add assurance in heavy offshore air. Cleverly positioned chain plates set the shrouds in board for safe passage up to the foredeck. An optional removable bowsprit sets the asymmetrical spinnaker. To round it all out there is a delivery dodger for foul weather.

Her vacuum-bagged decks are in serviceable condition and do not show their age. As a testament to her professional stewardship, this vessel is in stellar shape cosmetically. Her gelcoat topsides and stainless show to a high luster. Her windows and hatches are craze-free and their aluminum framing show no signs of pitting. Her signature double boot striping, navy canvas and the ship’s interior all show like-new. North Sails main & jib have been updated in 2016. There’s even a tender w/outboard included.

You will be hard pressed to find a tidier MKII anywhere in the world.
