The Beneteau Swift Trawler 42 is characterized by its sleek design, comfortable and practical solutions combined with good sailing characteristics, which is a result of Beneteau's long tradition since 1886 of building high-quality boats - Here in an extremely well-maintained, well-equipped and upgraded version from 2006 with two strong Yanmar 6LYA-STP diesel engines (each 370 HP, fixed propeller shaft and c. 1,210 hours).
This particular model was designed by Joubert Michel and Nivelt Bernard, with interior designed by Frutschi Pierre, who has succeeded with a design and layout that elegantly balances two conditions; several sections with their own function and associated cozy hiding places with the possibility of quite places on longer trips, while maintaining the feeling of a cohesive, well-integrated and extremely spacious ship, where moving around is experienced easily and comfortably on the 42 well-arranged feet ship.
The heart of the ship is the elevated and, thanks to the panoramic windows, bright saloon, which, with its integrated pantry and cockpit, includes everyone in the room, whether relaxing on the sofa, steering the ship or cooking. Moving down and forward in the ship, you will find a cozy double cabin on the starboard side, two elegant toilets on the port side and a large, exclusive masters cabin in the bow. If you go aft through the sliding doors, you'll find a covered outdoor area with dining facilities and access to a large bathing platform with both hot and cold showers. The large flybridge is distinguished by the fact that, in addition to being able to fully maneuver the ship and thrusters, it also has a refrigerator, a sink and a kitchen table for preparing food on the mounted stainless steel grill. Enjoy summer days with meals or drinks under the bimini around the L-shaped sofa. Finally, the flybridge also offers the option of either standing sun loungers or a rib, which can also be launched with a fixed crane. On the front deck, there is another cozy sunbathing spot where you can enjoy the warm rays of the sun on the mattresses.
Over the past 3 years, the ship has undergone extensive cosmetic and especially electronic updates. The following are just a few examples:
- Extensive electrical works
- thruster fore and aft that can also be remotely controlled
- Refurbished propellors
- Garmin navigation network in the cockpit and on the flybridge with computer-cut instrument panel in flybridge
