Originally ordered with shallower than standard draft to allow access to more cruising grounds around the world and an extended transom to provide even more storage space in the lazarette, GRILLO PARLANTE was launched in the summer of 2003 as the last of 10 Swan 77’s built by the Nautor yard in Finland. A perfect combination of build quality, performance and cruising comfort, the Swan 77 semi-custom series has earned a formidable reputation amongst discerning yachtsmen as a fast and sea kindly performance cruiser.
