Beneteau Swift Trawler ST44

With all the attributes that made the Swift Trawler range the benchmark for couples or families who are passionate about boating, the new Swift Trawler 44 turns comfort into a way of life.

 

As a symbol of escapism this latest model concedes nothing of the range’s proven performance, but adds a new concept of space: with greater space and more light the Swift Trawler 44 extends a wonderful open invitation to go cruising.

 

Designed for life on board, the Swift Trawler 44 offers a spacious and functional interior. The new asymmetric deck is more than 16 inches wider than that of the Swift Trawler 42. The wheelhouse area has been entirely redesigned and is 3 feet longer, made possible by modifying the angle of the forward windows.

 

The forward cabin is impressive with its combination of comfort and light provided through two large portholes. The guest cabin, to port, is now provided with a large double berth. To starboard are the 2 head compartments, larger and updated to fit the on-board living lifestyle.

 

The saloon is convertible into a double cabin, equipped with a dividing curtain. The U-shaped galley has plenty of space for storage. Additionally, the wheelhouse has been upgraded for optimum navigation with a new design and new surface finish, which cuts out windscreen reflections.

HULL DEVELOPMENTS
Uninterrupted views and maximum light – the addition of large fixed ports in the hull gives a sense of harmony while generous portholes help ventilate and brighten the interior.

On deck, the bathing platform aft has been lengthened and benefits from the same bathing ladder as the Swift Trawler 52, which is particularly ergonomic.

A semi-recessed staircase leads from the spacious cockpit to the flybridge. There is room in the cockpit for an L-shaped bench seat to provide shelter for mealtime.
Now three feet longer, the flybridge can comfortably accommodate two pilot seats at the helm station and a large instrument panel.

Priority has been given to the enlarged saloon, which has a built-in sofa to starboard with multiple storage compartments.

Finally, the loading mast and boom system includes an electric winch for hoisting the tender effortlessly.

It is scheduled to make its North-American debut at the Miami International Boat Show, February 17th through 21st.
