Drawn by the renowned firm of Joubert/Nivelt in cooperation with the Beneteau engineering office, the Swift Trawler 42 launches a niche of passagemakers with the ability to travel at a rapid pace in sublime comfort. Cruising at 18 knots, the ST 42 has a cruising range of over 300 miles. Her safe, seaworthy hull will carry your crew safely and quickly to the next port.

On top of her design emphasis of sea-kindly passages at quick paces, the Swift Trawler 42 offers upper and lower steering stations, a generous salon with an adjoining galley in a panoramic deck salon, a large master state room with a queen sized island berth, en suite head with separate shower, and a great guest cabin. The interior is finished out in the beautiful joinery work that is a hallmark of Beneteau, and her system offerings are "haute-couture". A true yacht-like flavor is evident throughout, from her sizeable flybridge/entertainment platform to her spacious, well-engineered engine/generator spaces.
