Beneteau’s Swift Trawler 37 replaces the Swift Trawler 35 and joins a lineup that has seen more than 1,800 boats launched since 2003, ranging from 37 to 63 feet across five models. The Swift Trawler 37, available in a flybridge or sedan version, presents a rising, linear sheerline that extends to a flared bow with a high freeboard. The design includes a reverse windshield, which should enhance visibility and the vessel’s trawler aesthetic. It also creates real estate forward for electric skylights or rooftop solar panels.

The trawler comes in either a sedan or a flybridge version. The flybridge model includes a single-seat helm to starboard and U-shaped seating around a table to port. An adjustable backrest converts the forward section into a companion helm seat. If bridge height is a consideration, or for those who like single-level living, there is the sedan version.

The “Adaptive Cockpit” offers increased space compared to the 35, with an optional “sliding seat upgrade.” Forward, a raised portside seat includes a smart lift-up table.

Standard power for the Swift Trawler 37 is a 400 hp Yanmar 6LY diesel. Fuel capacity is 211 gallons. Cruising at 8 knots, the reported range is 350 nautical miles, considering a 10 percent fuel reserve. For those seeking a little more horsepower, a 440 hp Yanmar is available.

Inside is a fully equipped U-shaped galley with Corian countertops to starboard, and across is U-shaped seating with a table that converts to a double bunk with a privacy curtain.

Belowdecks, the owner’s stateroom is forward with a step-up berth and private access to the single head. Abaft to port is a guest cabin with bunks.

“This latest stunning addition to the Beneteau Swift Trawler family is another bold step forward. We have been delighted to spend time to listen to our customers and create a modern passagemaker that meets their needs for life and freedom on the water,” stated Robert Chaffer, Beneteau Product Manager, in a press release.

The Beneteau Swift Trawler 37 is slated to debut at the Cannes Yachting Festival in September.
