"The Swift Trawler 34 is initially designed to cruise at a variety of speeds appropriately, gracefully, and relatively economically. Just like all boats in the trawler category, the Beneteau Swift Trawler 34 will slip easily through the water at hull speed, or just above, and use very little fuel to do so. The notable difference between the Beneteau Swift Trawler 34 and other speedy trawlers is the manner in which the vessel behaves at 12-knots and above. The Swift Trawler 34 hull design allows it to remain graceful and efficient at higher speeds-something that can-not be claimed by all of Beneteau's competitors. [...] When Beneteau re-imagined the trawler, they managed to engineer a surprising amount of content upper and lower berths in guest Stateroom into the vessel while carefully avoiding any feeling of cramped quarters." -Pacific Nor'West Boating
Sea Trial Report:
"The 425 HP Cummins diesel produced loads of power at wide-open throttle, simulating a dash of safety when the weather changed. Fuel consumption was 16. GPH in that instance, and the range was 206 Nautical miles, with a 10 percent fuel reserve. Pulling the throttle back to a fast cruise of 14 knots dropped consumption to 11.7 GPH and boosted the range to 227 nautical miles. At a leisurely 9 knots, consumption plummeted to 5.2 gph and the range jumped to 329 nautical miles." - Passage Maker

Beneteau Swift Trawler 34: BoatTEST Review
Overview
The Beneteau Swift 34 is presented as a hands-on cruising boat, designed with practical features that cater to ease of maintenance and comfort. The focus of this review is on the engine compartment design, noise levels, and overall accessibility, highlighting the boat's thoughtful engineering.
Engine Compartment Design and Layout
The engine compartment is accessed via a centrally located hatch in the salon sole, constructed from three-quarter inch marine-grade plywood with an additional inch and a half of sound insulation beneath. This design aims to reduce noise transmission into the living areas. The compartment houses a Cummins QSB 5.9 engine, delivering 425 horsepower, which fits comfortably within the space, allowing sufficient room for general maintenance tasks. Key components such as the fuel filter, electrical panel, coolant tank, and raw water strainer are conveniently located on the port side bulkhead. The presence of a clear, wire-reinforced hose with double clamps and an easily visible through-hull fitting facilitates quick inspections. The engine is mounted on anti-vibration, noise-suppressing mounts, and the exhaust system features a six-inch double-clamped hose connected to an underwater exhaust outlet. The propulsion system includes a stainless steel shaft with a dripless shaft seal, eliminating the need for a stuffing box. Additionally, the starboard side contains a clearly visible through-hull fitting for the transducer. While the oil filter is somewhat difficult to access, suggesting a remote oil change system would be beneficial, the compartment is well-equipped with two fire suppression systems, enhancing safety.
Noise Levels and Sound Suppression
Sound testing was conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of the engine compartment's noise insulation. Ambient noise levels in the salon measured between 69 and 71 decibels during conversation. With the engine idling and the hatch open, noise levels rose slightly to an average of 74 decibels. However, closing the hatch reduced the sound level significantly to an average of 62 to 63 decibels, which is below conversational noise levels. This demonstrates the efficacy of the soundproofing measures integrated into the engine compartment design.
Conclusion
The Beneteau Swift 34's engine compartment reflects an intuitive and practical approach to boat design, prioritizing accessibility, safety, and noise reduction. The thoughtful layout and quality of components, combined with effective sound suppression, contribute to a comfortable and manageable cruising experience. Overall, the Swift 34 stands out as a well-engineered vessel suitable for hands-on boaters.
