Beneteau Swift Trawler 41 Fly Key Facts

On Deck

Nick highlights the yacht's wide bathing platform, which is ideal for storing a tender, and the innovative sliding transom that increases cockpit space when not using a tender.

There is plenty of thoughtfulness in the boat's design, such as removable flybridge steps, in-built rails for safety, and the sliding doors that connect the interior and exterior spaces.

The Beneteau ST41 has a large foredeck and a cleverly designed walk-around with one narrow and one wider side to avoid compromising the interior space. The flybridge version has a large social area with plenty of seating and a great view.

Interior

The yacht's light, contemporary oak woodwork makes the interior feel spacious, and a more traditional darker teak interior is also available. The yacht has been designed with comfort in mind, with a hob, oven, and big seats for long-term living on board. It also features large windows and a drop-down table that can convert into a double bed. He also points out the clever storage solutions, like the slot for a freestanding table and the space for an optional dishwasher.

Downstairs, the yacht has a flexible cabin that can be used for storage or fitted with a washing machine. A second cabin is laid out as a double but can be converted into two singles with a cleverly hidden infill. The owner's cabin is spacious with plenty of storage, windows, and a separate shower and toilet. Nick is particularly impressed with the magnetic doors, which prevent them from latching and causing injury.

Performance

The yacht is powered by two Volvo Penta D4-270 engines, which give it a top speed in the low 20s and a cruising speed of 14 to 16 knots. The yacht can also be run at displacement speeds of 6 or 7 knots to greatly increase its range.

In Summary

Nick concludes the tour by praising the practical design of the yacht, which includes easily accessible engines and the absence of carpets. Overall, he is impressed with the Beneteau Swift Trawler 41 Fly and its suitability for long-term, relaxed cruising.
