Beneteau Swift Trawler 50: BoatTEST Review
Overview
The Swift 50 trawler by Beneteau is designed as a distance cruiser tailored for cruising couples who prefer short-handed or even single-handed operation. Equipped with Volvo Penta IPS pod drives, this vessel emphasizes ease of handling, excellent visibility from both helm stations, and a comfortable cruising environment. Its dimensions include a length overall of 49 feet 2 inches, a beam of 15 feet 3 inches, and a draft of 3 feet 5 inches, with an empty weight of approximately 35,264 pounds.
Helm and Operational Stations
The Swift 50 features two primary helm stations: a flying bridge and a lower helm. The flying bridge helm is center-mounted on an elevated platform, providing excellent visibility. It includes a Raymarine display, autopilot control, electrical switches, trim tabs, remote spotlight controls, tachometers, steering indicators, an IPS joystick, bow thruster controls, and digital engine controls. The lower helm station boasts a four-foot-wide helm seat with a 28-inch destroyer wheel designed with dark tones to reduce glare. It is equipped with two Raymarine touchscreen displays, tachometers, a steering indicator, autopilot controls, wind speed anemometer with apparent wind angle and speed, lighted rocker switches, Volvo Penta ignition and start-stop buttons, and an electronic display control (EDC). Notably, the lower helm offers exceptional visibility through narrow window buoyance and wraparound windows, complemented by an opening side window and door that facilitate easy access to the side deck and midship cleats. This design greatly enhances single-handed operation. Storage provisions near the helm include compartments for ancillary items and chart books. The positioning of controls allows simultaneous manipulation of the joystick and bow thruster with one hand, enhancing operational efficiency. Additional features include a main electrical panel with a Shiber touchscreen and rocker switches, as well as a cockpit control station with joystick and bow thruster controls.
Power and Performance
Powered by twin 435 horsepower Volvo Penta IPS 600 pod drive engines, the Swift 50 achieved a top speed of 21.3 knots at 3,500 RPM during testing. Fuel capacity stands at 714 gallons, with test conditions including 40% fuel and four people on board, resulting in an estimated test weight of 38,870 pounds. At a cruising speed of 10 knots, the vessel consumes 13.5 gallons per hour combined, allowing a range of approximately 476 nautical miles. Reducing speed to 7 knots decreases fuel consumption to 3.3 gallons per hour, extending range to 1,372 nautical miles while maintaining a 10% fuel reserve. Handling characteristics were tested in 1 to 2-foot seas on a breezy day, revealing minimal bow rise during acceleration, a dry and comfortable ride through head seas with low spray, and stable, flat turns with a maximum roll of about 5 degrees. The vessel maintains a roughly 5-degree bow-high cruise attitude, which manages spray effectively by directing it near helm level. Slowing down adjusts spray forward, which can be managed by the captain to optimize comfort.
Docking and Maneuverability
Docking the Swift 50 is facilitated by the thoughtfully positioned joystick and bow thruster controls, particularly from the lower helm station with its side door access. The joystick allows precise maneuvering adjacent to slips, while the cockpit station provides additional control for final tie-up adjustments. The combination of joystick and thruster controls positioned for simultaneous use significantly simplifies docking operations, making the vessel highly manageable for single operators or cruising couples.
Deck and Mechanical Access
The Swift 50’s deck features large 16-inch cleats with heavy-duty chafing gear on both sides of the cockpit, as well as on the foredeck, which is elevated 16 inches above the main deck. The foredeck includes two hatches providing access to the all-chain rode and remote control for the Lumar windlass. Engine room access is via a hatch in the cockpit deck, revealing well-spaced twin D6 diesel engines with accessible outboard sides. Fuel tanks are located forward with filters mounted directly to them, and storage for service items is provided nearby. The master battery switches are positioned on the aft bulkhead. The air-chiller system circulates cold water past vent fans throughout the interior. A 13.5 kW generator is mounted on an elevated platform between the engines, with the genset start battery below. Adjacent cockpit deck hatches provide access to the lazarette for servicing pods, jack shafts, the gray water tank and pump, and the hydraulic system. The lazarette also offers ample storage and can be accessed from the swim platform, which doubles as an optional crew quarter. These design elements support owner-operator maintenance by ensuring easy access to electrical and mechanical components.
Conclusion
The Beneteau Swift 50 Trawler stands out as an exceptionally well-designed vessel for cruising couples seeking a manageable, comfortable, and efficient trawler. Its dual helm stations with outstanding visibility, thoughtfully arranged controls, and advanced propulsion system contribute to ease of operation, especially for short-handed or single-handed cruising. The vessel’s performance delivers a smooth, stable, and dry ride with excellent fuel economy and range. Coupled with practical deck layouts and accessible mechanical spaces, the Swift 50 offers a compelling package for owner-operators prioritizing comfort, control, and reliability on extended voyages.
