The Black Swan
 |
|
Originally designed by Charles Nicholson and built in 1899 at Camper and Nicholson in Gosport, England, BLACK SWAN started life as BRYNHILD with a yawl rig. Over the years, she has undergone several changes and different rig configurations. At one stage she was renamed CHANGRILLA, although she was eventually re-christened BLACK SWAN in the 1960’s. Today, after an extensive restoration project at the Beconcini yard in La Spezia, she is now carrying a gaff-rig, designed by the Faggioni Yacht Design Studio, and built by Harry Spencer. BLACK SWAN has accommodation for 8 to 10 guests. There are 4 double cabins all with en-suite facilities, and the owner’s stateroom is full-width. Forward of the saloon there is one child/nanny cabin, with upper and lower bunks. Guests have the choice of dining indoors in the saloon, or alternatively, on deck and enjoying the splendour of this beautiful traditional yacht. She is, once again, cruising the Mediterranean waters, and her multi-lingual Italian crew eagerly await your arrival, and to share with you, the magical, unforgettable experience of being onboard a true classic. |
