DECK LAYOUT

The ClubSwan 36 features a modern deck layout, the design comes from the evolution of a concept, tested with various scale models, the shape is clean with well-defined ergonomics. The design is based on how the deck will be used: all that is superfluous has been removed, adding back only what is needed for efficient crew placement and how the crew moves together. There has been a deep investigation in order to optimize the arrangement of control lines with correct leads and placement occasionally crossing the hull but also with neat solutions where conduits double up as a foot step. The deck is equipped with seven Harken winches, two for the runners, two for the mainsail and two for the jibs or kite, the seventh is positioned centrally and is used to control the C-board, halyards and other lines. Functionality is key when positioning the winches in the right place with the correct angle, in order to achieve the best efficiency and performance. Similar to a dinghy, all the cleats for the deflector, cunningham and vang are placed on both sides of the yacht to be easily accessed by the mainsail trimmer. The line systems are covered by two removable panels, light and durable thanks to some unidirectional reinforcements. The panel on the foredeck covers the retractable bowsprit and the retriever circuit, while the second carter aft of the mast covers all the other circuits and restrictors that replace the stoppers. The main idea behind the removable panels comes from the desire to have a clean deck and keeping most of the controls outside the boat, leaving a dryer interior; guaranteeing Nautor’s Swan traditional safety philosophy whilst also having easy access for maintenance.
