Beneteau's NEW Swift Trawler 54 Yacht will show at Cannes Yachting Festival 2024

Beneteau marks 140 years with the new Swift Trawler 54 yacht

The new 54ft motor yacht (16m) fits perfectly into the renowned Swift Trawler lineup, which has launched over 1,800 boats since 2003. The range includes models from 35ft to 62ft (10.6m to 19m) across five variations. The Swift Trawler 54 is for sale at the Cannes Yachting Festival 2024. 

The Swift Trawler 54 boasts exterior features, including the impressive "Terrace to the Sea" cockpit concept and a spacious flybridge with comfortable seating and luxurious details. Its design emphasizes safe and easy movement between the helm, galley side doors, and panoramic wheelhouse windows.

On the foredeck, the U-shaped seating area with an inset table quickly converts into a large sun pad, complete with dedicated fender stowage underneath for added convenience and comfort.
