Design edit
The Swan 82 is a recreational keelboat, built predominantly of glassfibre, with wood trim. It has a masthead sloop rig, a raked stem, a reverse transom, an internally mounted spade-type rudder controlled by dual wheels and a fixed fin keel with weighted bulb. It displaces 90,400 lb (41,005 kg) and carries 29,300 lb (13,290 kg) of lead ballast.[1][2][3]
The boat has a draft of 11.48 ft (3.50 m) with the standard keel.[1][2][3]
The boat is fitted with a Swedish Volvo D-4 diesel engine of 180 hp (134 kW) or a Yanmar 4LH-STE diesel engine for docking and manoeuvring. The fuel tank holds 487 U.S. gallons (1,840 L; 406 imp gal) and the fresh water tank has a capacity of 237 U.S. gallons (900 L; 197 imp gal).[1][2][3]
The design has sleeping accommodation for six people in three cabins, with two forward cabins each with two bunk beds, an L-shaped settee and a straight settee in the main cabin and an aft cabin with a central island double berth. The galley is located on the port side just aft of the companionway ladder. The galley is U-shaped and is equipped with a three-burner stove, an ice box and a double sink. A navigation station is opposite the galley, on the starboard side. There are three heads with showers, one for each cabin.[1][2][3]
For sailing downwind the design may be equipped with an asymmetrical spinnaker of 5,631 sq ft (523.1 m2). The design has a hull speed of 11.19 kn (20.72 km/h).[1][2][3]
