About Us

Nautor's Swan were first represented in the UK by Hurrell and Johnson back inthe early nineteen seventies. The Swan 36 was the first racing yacht to win every day at Cowes week - a feat that has yet to be beaten.

John Irving and Pat Lilley took over the Agency in 1984 and Irving and Lilley was set to become the foremost Swan Agent in the world.

They were both instrumental in coming up with the idea of the Swan Regatta, first the Europeans based in Cowes and Guernsey and then of course helped the Finns establish the now world famous Swan Cup in Porto Cervo.

With an unrivalled knowledge base and an expert team, which now includes Tim Quinlan, a Swan owner himself, heading up the brokerage division and Rachael Ryan looking after our Swan Charter business, you can expect help and information on every aspect of Swan ownership.

Whether you are considering a New Build project, the purchase of a pre-owned yacht or disposal of your current Swan, whatever her size or age, please do call us.

We are passionate about our Swans!
