Barry Ashmore, Nautor Swan CCO, has announced the appointment of Kevin H. O'Conor to manage the key US East market, working in collaboration with Ken Keefe, with a long experience in Nautor Swan since 1994 and responsible for US West.

Kevin and Ken, the authorized agents for US, together bring exceptional experience and valuable contacts across cruising and racing yacht segments and will be a clear point of reference for US clients for Nautor Swan new yacht sales, brokerage and charter.

The Nautor Swan US team will be present at the Annapolis Yacht Show from October 10 to 14 presenting the Swan 58 and will look forward to welcoming visitors onboard where we will be able to discuss the whole Nautor Swan range from 28 feet to 128 feet.

"Nautor Swan has long enjoyed a special place in the hearts of US cruising and racing sailors" said Barry Ashmore, Nautor Swan CCO. "With Kevin's appointment, we now have a qualified team with specific experience across key marine sectors to enable Nautor to present its latest models to US yachtsmen. Of particular note, the new Swan 51 performance cruiser currently in build for 2025 launch and the new ClubSwan 28 and ClubSwan 43 racers".
