The Beneteau Swift Trawler 37 is one of those family cruisers that keeps finding ways to maximise its footprint.
Asymmetric side decks shift the living space to give you an exceptionally wide saloon, a high flared bow deflects the chop, and the modular cockpit seating slides completely out of the way. But beyond all the clever space-saving tricks and Beneteau's signature functionality, does this midsize trawler actually deliver on its promise of efficient, long-range passagemaking for the hands-on owner-operator?
In this detailed YachtBuyer sea trial, walkthrough and review, we take a closer look at the NEW Beneteau Swift Trawler 37 to find out whether this refined semi-planing cruiser genuinely improves the onboard experience — or whether the compromises of its 37-foot frame start to limit its offshore ambitions.
