Originally called ‘Fish Eagle of Brook’ and built for short handed cruising by the owner and his wife. The normal season included weekend Solent sailing and an annual cruise to Brittany. The first owner kept his Swan in a good, seamanlike condition and had a program of winter maintenance out of the water at Hamble Yacht Services. The rig, sails and running rigging were also checked and serviced regularly.

The second owner purchased the boat in 2009 and did a great job of bringing the Swan up to date. The following is from an extensive list of works carried out during his ownership:
