CHERI

CHERI is one of the last Swan 51s built. She is hull #032 of a total of 36 built. She has the desirable centerboard with less than 6' of draft with the center board in the up position making her a perfect cruising boat for the shallow waters off the east coast of the US, the Bahamas, or even the South Pacific.

CHERI has a unique interior plan with 5 sleeping cabins, including a very generous en-suite master cabin aft, thus allowing for more guests to stay overnight or to accommodate off watch crew.

CHERI benefited from a major refit between 1998 and 2001 including teak decking, new tanks, plumbing and electrical work.

More recently, and as noted below, the stainless steel rod standing rigging was replaced, together with the engine, generator, sailing instruments and sails.

More exterior and interior photos of CHERI will be made available toward the end of March 2025.
