2024 Beneteau Swift Trawler 48

The new Swift Trawler 48 advances the BENETEAU Range of practical and seaworthy passagemakers. The Andreani design focuses on easy living and circulation that builds on the wealth of Beneteau Trawler DNA and customer feedback. The Swift Trawler 48 is 48’4” long overall with a beam of 14’9” and is now positioned as the largest Swift Trawler in the Range only surpassed by the Grand Trawler as the flagship of the BENETEAU trawler range. The new Swift Trawler 48 has the size, space and capability to continue the journey of seasoned cruisers and aspiring cruisers alike.

BLUEWATER CRUISING
To enjoy the sea with confidence the Swift Trawler 48 is rated for 12 persons in CE Category B. The hull has been designed
to optimize sea kindly behaviour and performance. The slender flared bow of the Swift Trawler 48 cuts through the sea
wonderfully resulting in efficient fuel consumption and safe handling.

RANGE & PERFORMANCE
MICAD naval architects have designed a semi-planing hull that optimises fuel efficiency across the speed range. With 1930 litres of fuel on board you can expect a range of +600nm at 9 knots displacement speed or 280nm at 18 knots efficient planing speed whilst retaining a fuel reserve of 10%. This in combination with 640 litres of fresh water allows for considerable autonomy away from the dock. While Swift Trawler DNA is focused on comfortable & economic cruising - the standard pair of Cummins QSB 6.7 litre 380hp engines allows a top speed of 21 knots with the upgrade 425hp engines giving a top speed of 25 knots. So there is always plentiful “reserve power” available to take the boat beyond 20 knots should the need arise.

THE EXTERIOR SPACES – YOUR CONNECTION TO THE WATER
The aft cockpit can fit a folding table and two directors chairs which together with the large bench seat maximise the indoor/outdoor living space. Intelligent design features such as the foot pedal operated sliding flybridge stairs and starboard side deck acrylic “wind stopper” door and overhead handrail further enhance the functionality and comfort found in this area. The transom double gate opens onto a large swim platform with an optional hydraulic lifting system able to carry a 350 kg dinghy. Simple well-designed features such as the bathing ladder with swimming pool handrails ensure there is no easier way to enjoy the delights of the sea. The generous 20 sqm flybridge floor area gives the space to create a comfortable layout so you can enjoy the panorama of the sea every minute of the day. The transform backrests either side of the pilot seat allow plentiful forward facing seating during passage making. While the transverse vis-à-vis seating and table area create a great area to eat & relax. This can be further complimented by the optional flybridge T-top with inset sliding soft-top. Aft there is a transverse wet bar facing forward allowing good communication with everyone seated forward while preparing drinks or food. The aft flybridge space allows for sun loungers or paddle boards etc. On the foredeck there is the option of a sun pad with lift up sections creating forward seating – perfect for relaxing with a drink and a good book. Note the asymmetrical deck layout allows for a wide and well-protected starboard side deck with high bulwarks giving safe and easy access to this area.

THE MAIN SALOON – SPACE TO RELAX AND ENTERTAIN
Entering through the patio doors there is a large L-shaped galley on portside aft with a full height 255-litre fridge freezer and large overhead lockers outboard. The standard galley has a gas oven or optional multi-function electric oven, a clever “magic corner” pull-out storage unit, cupboards & drawers that ensure plentiful capacity for extended cruising while still allowing space for an optional dishwasher. The raised edge Corian worktop features a gas or induction cooktop and large sink, opposite the galley is a spacious sideboard with cupboards and an internal bottle rack. The sideboard can be configured with an icemaker, Villeroy & Boch croc
