A dual-purpose ClubSwan 50
Offshore optimized and one-design capable. Hull 008 has been upgraded with the latest race gear and, following a major 2025/26 refit, is configured for offshore racing with a triple-headed reaching sail plan. She currently sails under ORR and ORC and can return to the ClubSwan 50 one-design start line after a few small changes.
Pimu combines the proven inshore performance of the ClubSwan 50 with extensive offshore upgrades: fast reaching, robust deck hardware, modern electronics and race-ready systems, while keeping her cruising accommodations and gear.
