The Swan 76 was designed by Olin Stephens and built by Nautor's Swan and first launched in 1979. The boat was available in two versions, with flush deck or deckhouse. The deckhouse version was only available with the centerboard option whereas the flush deck was available with a deep keel. Five boats were built during a production run that ran from 1979-1981.
