{{wikify-date|July 2006}} Oy Nautor Ab was founded in Finland in 1966 by Pekka Koskenkylä. Koskenkylä's intention was to build the first 10m yacht capable of both cruising and racing, using a fibre glass mould. At the heart of his concept was quality, the core focus of Nautor's production process throughout its history. Series production was considered key to the success of the venture and precise, logistical organisation was paramount at an early stage. The United Kingdom and Ireland Sales and Service Offices are operated from Port Hamble Marina by John Irving and Patrick Lilley, two of the most experienced Swan Agents in the World. Tim Quinlan heads up the Brokerage Department with Verity Horner running the Nautor Swan Charter Office, and along with Rachael Ryan they back up all sales and service operations. ==External links== *swanyachts.co.uk Category:Yachting De:Nautor's_Swan
