Nautor’s SwanThe ninth edition of the celebrated Les Voiles de St Tropez regatta has come to a close having welcomed a mixture of classic and modern yachts from all corners the world. Over 300 boats took part in the regatta, including 23 Swans, ranging from 39ft up to 80ft. The most successful performance by a Swan was, without doubt, the Club Swan 42 of Leonardo Ferragamo, Cuordileone, which won the 23 strong Class B in the modern division on its Mediterranean debut. In that class, Swans took four of the top ten places, showing the versatility of these beautiful boats.
