The Dutch-built Nimble 36.5 limited edition catamaran was designed by well-known and respected naval architect Alexander Verheus through Alexander Multihull Design. The epoxy resin building material make her resistant to osmosis and light weight. The owners sailed her across the Atlantic a few years ago and now enjoy the warm waters of the Caribbean. Circumstances change and they are have decided to sell the boat and take care of personal business rather than leave her on a mooring ball. They are active sailors and take very good care her to keep her sailing.

The cockpit area is massive for a 36.9 foot boat with great visibility from the helm. A single plexiglass entry door leads into the welcoming saloon. This entire area is settee that seat eight. The owner customized the settee to make into a full size bed – perfect for passage making. You can drive the boat in he comfort of the saloon area with 360 degree visibility. The nav station is big enough to roll out an average size chart. The sides of this area are open for ventilation and room feel.

The starboard side of the hull midships is the large galley are with privacy and comfort for the chef. The oven and fridge are at eye level – also a nice feature. Aft from there is a cabin with an elevated full size bed, forward is a twin side cabin. Port side, midships is the workshop area with tons of spare parts and tools. The only head is forward with one full size cabin aft.

This “Nimble” catamaran lives up to her brand – quick and light!

Owner’s Notes:

Swean is a 11.2 by 6.2 meters catamaran professionally built in the Netherlands. It is made of a very strong and light epoxy composite, weighs only 3.6 tonnes. This justifies here type name: Nimble.

She is a compact but still spacious catamaran and because of her size easy handling. She has three cabins two double beds 140×200 and one single. In the salon there is a possibility for another bed. In the head a toilet and shower.

It is a fixed keel cruising catamaran, draught only 0.70 m which makes it very well possible to fall dry and anchor in shallow waters. The first two owners have sailed her mainly in the Netherlands in sweet water and to the Baltic sea .The current owner recently crossed the Atlantic. (Cape Verde to Grenada in 15 days including two days of little wind and a detour to avoid bad weather).

Swaen comes with a long long list of extras: including a full-size toolkit, two Makitas, lots of spares, fully equipped kitchen, central heating, life jackets, beddings, binoculars, torches, generator, new paddle board, fishing gear, weather station, hand held vhf, outside shower, and much more.

She is ready to sail. She is designed in such a way that from the steering position all sailing functions can be reached so ideal for solo sailing and no need to leave the safe steering position. Swaen sails well and has a self tacking jib.
