Beneteau Grand Trawler Boats For Sale

The Beneteau Grand Trawler 62 is the flagship of Beneteau's trawler range, developed with the Naada Design Studio and built in Italy after the builder consulted existing Swift Trawler owners about what they wanted in a larger liveaboard yacht. The answer was space, storage and serious passage-making capability, and the boat delivers all three on a full-displacement hull optimized for a 9-knot cruise. It suits an owner planning extended cruising who may run the boat themselves or carry a couple of crew, since the layout sits right on the cusp between owner operation and crewed operation. The closely related Grand Trawler 63 is the same flagship presented as the largest model in the series, with the same design language and engineering.

Power comes from twin MAN inline-six 730-horsepower diesels carrying a five-year manufacturer's warranty. At 9 knots the Grand Trawler 62 has a range of more than 1,000 nautical miles, quoted as high as 1,444 nautical miles while holding a 10% fuel reserve, which puts crossings such as Chesapeake to Bermuda or the full Bahamas from Florida within reach. Top speed is 20 knots if you need to outrun weather or keep a schedule. Fuel is carried in dual tanks totaling around 4,000 liters (roughly 1,122 US gallons), with site gauges and standard MAN filters between the tanks, alongside a quick gyro stabilizer and an onboard generator with capacity for a 25-kilowatt unit.

The lower helm sits behind an 8-foot-3-inch single-piece forward-slanted Portuguese windshield and houses three 16-inch multifunction screens that interface with the vessel systems. A joystick integrates the bow and stern thrusters, and a ship control system manages the generator, air conditioning, lighting, battery monitoring and bilge pumps from one panel. A single helm seat is standard with the second seat optional, and a port-side sofa long enough to serve as a daybed lets a navigator or off-watch crew stay close to the captain. A side door beside the helm gives direct access to the starboard side deck for docking.

The main deck offers around 340 square feet of floor space split into distinct social zones, with satin oak joinery, dark walnut window trim and optional white oak decking. The galley can be fully enclosed in crew style, with a side deck door, full-height refrigerator-freezer, induction cooktop with overhead vent, and dishwasher. Outside, a submersible hydraulic swim platform handles a tender up to around 400 kilograms, glass transom and balustrades create an open "Terrace to the sea," and the flybridge runs almost two-thirds of the boat's length with U-shaped seating for eight, a wet bar with grill, sink, refrigeration and ice maker, plus an optional hardtop offered within a comfort package costing around 90,000 euros.

Belowdecks the standard configuration is three staterooms and three heads, with a full-beam midship master, a forward VIP with an offset berth and a convertible twin guest cabin; a four-stateroom, three-head layout is also available. Headroom approaches seven feet throughout, and stern crew quarters provide two berths, a separate head and shower, a washer-dryer and direct access to a well-ventilated engine room. Starting price for the Beneteau Grand Trawler 62 is around 1.7 million euros. For anyone looking at a Beneteau Grand Trawler for sale, weigh the optional second helm seat, hardtop and stabilization, which several specifications treat as near-essential to the boat's intended cruising role.
