I know I like the Fairline Targa 40, but this one has really caught my eye, a perfect boat for all seasons, nice one Nick and thanks for inviting me on board.

[@michaelscott4766]

'It's a single-engine control because it's a single-engine boat', it's this sort of granular detail you miss from other reviewers. Ha Ha great video as always.

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Important to mention these things 😄

[@4406bbldb]

For a boat this size? That comment makes me crazy but lots of reviews have it. I’m not sure if I ever hear “ for a boat this size it’s so tiny.” But I’ll keep watching cause I actually love these reviews.

The emergency tiller you can tell Beneteau brought that over from their yachting heritage "Brilliant"

[@JackBahh]

I imagine it's there as she's single screw as well, at least with no helm but twin engines you could get your self alongside. With a single engine you have little chance especially with any wind or tide.

[@Richarrow]

Amazing design for a 35.

[@eyesofisabelofficial]

When horse drawn trams where introduced ladies needed some basic privacy on the upper deck so boards where attached to the handrails, like on this Swift Trawler 35. Later on adverts where painted on and that's why we still have ads along the sides of double decker busses to this day .

[@Ulbre]

Yet another gr8 tour. Given the market over recent times, I bet that boat would get more than it's money back and if you want a 2023 model than you can expect add at least another 100K on. Crazy times.

[@matthewrawlings884]

My best friend is French. They tend to buy English boats. I have to say this one is a 9.9 as a favoured critic. If only there were a laundry washer/dryer. I would happily purchase this as a get up and go. The French know how to boat soft or hard weather.

[@tal0ndarktalon637]

This would be a great boat to travel up and down the British Columbia coast. Exploring all the islands and inlets. Not too big, so she can get into the tighter spots. Lovely. Another great Aquaholic Tour!

This boat strikes the balance between dream and practical reality - still aspirational, but not wildly so. I could imagine our family of 4 using this, while occasionally taking grandparents for an overnighter. Wonderfully presented, as always, Nick!

I do love the beneteau boats , they always look so practical ! Big and spacious for a 35 aswell ! Great tour nick 10/10 👌

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Thanks! 👍

[@adamfieldhouse311]

This is my favorite boat that you have toured so far. I love the styling of it, the ergonomics are fantastic, but it is the performance figures that intrigue me most. To be able to plod along at 6-7 knots getting 700 miles from the tank is a real incentive for me, still knowing that if things get dicey, I can open the throttle and get home at 20 knots. Brilliant. In a few years time when this particular model is more affordable, it will be the boat that I purchase for the family. Thanks Nick. Keep up the great work.

[@paulnorman8274]

"plod along at 6-7 knots" is key to keep things affordable on all such heavy semi-displacement boats. Once you're over 12 knots, you're burning diesel faster than a planing hull, despite going half the speed.... Making them expensive to run if you have any sort of time constraints. For retirees, or "boat people" who intend to spend lots of time, not just days/weekends, on board, the increased space, and much softer motion at sea than planning hull, makes them great choices. But you have to have the restraint to lay off that throttle.....

[@AQUAHOLIC]

[@connorbegley8464]

1:55 I laughed way harder than I should have at the “before, after” thing 😂. I really like this one, only 35 feet, but with the trawler style it’s got tons of space inside and a fairly cheap price for the amount of boat as you might expect from Beneteau. And even as a trawler it can get up some speed which I think make this swift trawler series very appealing. My favorite thing about the trawler boats is the big tall wind screens. On the sports cruisers the wind screens always seem too narrow vertically. Great video Nick! Thanks for the tour!

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Thanks for watching!

[@georgestamper8451]

Space utilisation galore! So much activities to be had in such a small vessel. Sweet! Cheers!

[@kevinbanham2429]

As always a fine yacht tour from a fine gentlemen top marks Nick

[@thebazgaz]

Not sure on the beach club bit, I think fixed seating is probably more comfortable, but a lovely little ship. You could sail this single handed.

[@freduk5342]

Agree, the only main negative from this boat. I don't get why there not an option of a fixed and more substantial cockpit bench on offer

[@lajucb]

Great boat and review, they have packed a lot into 35 feet.

[@Big.Ron1]

I have been curious about these little beasts. Thank you. Be safe.

[@kd_drumss]

[@chrish2996]

Hi Nick. Love it. A trawler with loads of space everywhere for a 35ft. Great walkthrough video tour thanks 😊

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@pitbullxv750]

A smashing little boat and great tour, thanks Nick. I've found a couple of reasons why the toilets on boats are called heads, which one is true, I don't know but they're both feasible. The first one is on old sail boats there was normal a figure head at the front of the boat, being a sail boat, the wind would normally come from the stern so when sailors needed to go they used to go to the "head". The second one came from the anchor chain tube which was known as the "head" tube, allegedly when sailors needed a number two they used to use the "head" tube to do the business.

[@AQUAHOLIC]

The first is the most common one and, I believe, correct.

[@theresnobodyhere5778]

love its bigger sister the swift 50 great design and value ,the 62 is weird looking reminds me of an azimut hull and bow shape

[@barryoconnor431]

Finger clicking magic tricks???? Have you been watching Ruebin of Marine sales Scotland?? His boat tours do that all the time when showing different layouts etc. To use my favourite phrase, a really nice piece of kit. I really like those 'trawler style' boats like this and Grand Banks, Fleming etc. They really ooze that relaxing way of slow paced offshore cruising.

[@CryMeARiver63]

This one is really nice . I can see this out on our Lake Murray .

This is the boat that I need to give a thumbs up more than once. Great boat and video. Thanks.

[@midas1929]

The use of space on this 35 footer and the clever details are amazing. It gives you all that is needed and sleeps a family. Of course, some are never happy and compare it to more expensive brands, not realizing that the price difference is sometimes an additional apartment in some countries. I want a 58 footer, but my wife and banker say no.

[@AlexPittendreigh]

Gotta say that is a very impressive package. Had to have a bit of a chuckle to myself at the end though when YT suggested in have another look at your walkthough of the Beneteau Swift Trawler 40 which was listed at 300K. An extra 5 feet for 10K.... bargain.

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Bear in mind that the other boat is 6 years old - this is brand new

[@AlexPittendreigh]

@@AQUAHOLIC Yeah I gathered that. It was actually meant to be a bit of a tongue in cheek comment. My bad that it didn't come across that way. Sorry.

[@AQUAHOLIC]

@@AlexPittendreigh Ha, no worries! 🙂

[@nickwebb9290]

This is a seriously good boat. In fact I think the whole Beneteau Swift Trawler range is fantastic. I really like trawler style boats, they’re usually so practical, workman like and unpretentious. As usual, a superb tour Nick. Love the seat trick, seat open, seat closed, very Tommy Cooper 😆 in fact should you lose your deck shoes over the side you can do another trick by just clicking your fingers and getting them back on deck again........just like that 🤣

It's amazing you can sleep 6 or even 7 on a 35 footer, while having all the comfort and outdoor areas you can ask for. And the price is reasonable, too

[@ashleypierce8500]

10:45 MAGIC SHOES!!!! I really like this one. Good job Beneteau. On the smaller port side walkway, do you know what the space is under the hatch? I’m guessing fender storage? Also, I’ve found myself rating boats these days by "spaces", for example this one has 5 (cabins, salon, cockpit, fly bridge, and fore deck). How many spaces is really an important feature for me because in limited environment like this having spaces to go makes a huge difference in comfort.
