A €1,050,000 price drop has been announced on the 35.1-metre Swan sailing yacht Shamanna, listed for sale with Sean McCarter of Northrop & Johnson.
Shamanna was built in GRP by Finnish yard Nautor Swan and delivered in 2016 as the second hull in the yard’s then-flagship 115 series. She was designed by German Frers as a performance cruiser and has a number of regatta wins under her keel including a recent win in Supermaxi Class at the 2022 Maxi Rolex Regatta in Porto Cervo. She will be racing in the Rolex Maxi Cup again from 2 to 9 September 2023.
This sailing yacht for sale is built in a lightweight carbon composite for a competitive edge and features a flush deck. Sailing operations are confined to the aft deck, with push-button sail controls within arm's reach, which allows for a central cockpit clear of lines. The space features two extendable tables and U-shaped sofas on either side of the companionway, with an awning that can be hung over the boom providing shade at anchor.
A twin helm is an ideal configuration for racing while below the waterline lies a hydraulic lifting keel that works threefold to maximise comfort, enhance performance and allow owners to access shallower anchorages and ports. Fully extended, she has a draft of 5.75 metres that retracts to 3.55 metres.
Other sailing credentials include a four-spreader black high modulus carbon fibre mast for offshore cruising with removable inner forestay and running backstay. The yacht is also equipped with a full suite of racing sails, including a 356-square-metre main sail and 630-square-metre asymmetric spinnaker. A carbon fibre Park Avenue boom and Harken winches complete the set-up.
Below deck, Shamanna ’s layout has a large, open living area with saloon to port and dining starboard. The keel box, housing the lifting keel, is covered in leather and acts as a divider between the saloon and dining area. Forward, the mast is a design element, finished in carbon fibre with a cross-strand mesh fibre for aesthetic purposes.
Accommodation is for 10 guests in four cabins comprising a master suite, VIP suite and two twins, all with en suite bathroom facilities.
Shamanna has undergone refit work, which included a full paint re-spray, sanding of the decks, a new spray hood, complete reupholstery of her cockpit, antifouling, full service and refurbishment of her machinery and engineering systems on board and the upgrading of her onboard entertainment system.
Under power, a 450hp Scania diesel engine allows a cruising speed of 10 knots topping out at 12.8 knots.
Shamanna is now asking €11,450,000 and is lying in Italy (Sicily in August then Sardinia in September).
