VIKING, Swan 61 – Safe Harbors

VIKING

Swan 61

Build Number:

Experienced Swan owners saw the potential in the Swan 61 Viking and entrusted JBY with an ambitious transformation despite living thousands of miles away. Hauled in mid-January, she underwent an extensive refit and was relaunched by early October. Following two successful sea trials, Viking sailed to Florida before being shipped to California—and has since sailed to Hawaii twice and completed a single-handed circumnavigation.
