BÉNÉTEAU Swift Trawler 42

Trawler built in 2008

The French yard BÉNÉTEAU broke new ground when introducing the Swift Trawler 42 in 2004. They created a new semi-planing series alongside the existing “Pêche Promenade” boats. These new models had the good rough weather performance of a classic trawler, but were are also able to plane thanks to their flat aft sections and stronger engines. The first of these was the BÉNÉTEAU Swift Trawler 42, which immediately became a bestseller for the shipyard. Like any real trawler, the yacht sits firmly in the water, offers safe movement thanks to wide running decks and high coaming and has a spacious cockpit that is completely covered by the flybridge. In her bright deckhouse and two cabins, she offers plenty of comfort and living space for a crew of four.

This Swift Trawler 42 is a well-maintained private yacht offered by her second owner (first launch: 2009). The yacht has been in indoor winter storage every year and is continuously maintained and serviced by professionals. Extensive specification with bow and stern thruster incl. radio remote control, teak decks, diesel generator 3.5 KW, 2 x TV with satellite antenna, diesel heating and complete RAYMARINE navigation incl. radar, AIS and plotters at both helm stations. The hull was painted dark blue in 2022 and the bottom paint was completely renewed. The yacht is moored in northern Germany and can be viewed anytime by appointment.
