The Swan 53-2, also called the Swan 53 Mk II, is a Finnish sailboat that was designed by Germán Frers as a blue water cruiser and first built in 2005.[1][2][3]
The design was originally marketed by the manufacturer as the Swan 53, but is now usually referred to as the Swan 53-2 or Mk II, to differentiate it from Frers' unrelated 1987 Swan 53 Mk I design.[1][2][3][4][5][6]
The boat is a developed into the Swan 54, using the same hull design.[7]
