€1.2 Million Explorer Yacht Tour : Beneteau Swift Trawler 54

[@ChaosTheoryArchitecture]

a HYPER underrated part of your channel is that every video has a price on the boats. We take it for granted but that little detail allows people to judge the type of product you are presenting easily in a way many youtubers seek to hide

[@jjaus]

Granite?

[@BomptonBillions999]

heh i take it for diamond really

[@kyleb4327]

Progressive comments are hyper

[@LucasFerreira-cq8qz]

Man i would take it for the boat itself, I don’t care about the granite

[@sdrawkcabevad]

I agree with the sentiment of the original post, but I wonder if the price given is for this heavily optioned boat, or if it is the starting point for this model.

[@SimonJeffery-g9b]

That's my kind of MY in a nutshell. Range over speed, small enough to be able to handle single handed on occasion, great level of comfort and loads of clever innovation. Great presentation Nick as ever.

Nick.... One of your "colleagues" who actually also makes pretty good reviews, had this boat featured a week or so ago, and that video had me intrigued about this boat... I am a huge fan of the Grand Trawler, but this is so cleverly made, and it is your walk through - with all the little clever details and explanations of various options - that really does it. Never stop this channel! I really understand why you have 500K + subs, and you present the - for some - small details, for others the very important, and actually decision making details.... And this boat.... is an evolution in small trawler style boats - the best boats there is....Thank you so much for all your hard work

[@AQUAHOLIC]

You're very kind 🙂

[@darrylgardner2680]

Hi, I've caught your reviews once or twice before but have tuned in deliberately for the last few. I really love the way you make us feel like we've just shown up to look at a boat or experience some aspect of boating with you, it's remarkably personal. You have an extremely engaging way of really including your followers in the video. Thanks so much, it's very refreshing, I shall be tuning in regularly now. Cheers from a mate in Australia..

The sheer amount of bare timber below deck on these is just so crappy and cheap. These are not well built boats

[@tonybazz53]

@@mz22waBeneteau uses Alpi which is an Italian made engineered hardwood that is extremely stable and durable. The highly esteemed Marriott Hotel in Lima Peru was recently updated using this product. Like Nick mentioned in this video Beneteau has upped its game by integrating the espresso colored foam backed panels on both sides of each door and cream colored panels on the walls as well which breaks up the wood and helps deaden sound. Even though the wood is engineered the cost is in line with solid oak or even teak. It’s far from cheap. The light satin finish gives the interior an open spacious feel and the high density of the engineered Alpi keeps sound from traveling from one room to the other. I can easily understand your opinion of the choices of color and the satin finish, but cheap and crappy it is not.

@@AQUAHOLIC I was having a glass of wine and musing about this - above my pay grade- vessel, which you explicated adroitly. I was noticing all these English aphorism's you use, how efficiently it allows you to convey info. Sort of reminded be of the many great English novels I've read by the likes of Thomas Hardy. You're a master at your craft; and, what a boat! It almost seems like it might be reliable and wouldn't cost a fortune to maintain. Must be the wine.

[@Broadcastvehicles]

There are Superyachts and there are Superbyachts. I think Benetau shows here that it doesn't have to cost a lot of money to go on an adventure in comfort, efficiency, class and practicality. Well thought out, nice appearance and "feeling at home"-feeling. Sorry, but I have a soft spot for these types of boats. It always makes me very happy to see them. Thanks as always, Nick! Always so cool, your eye for details.

This boat is absolutely amazing. It’s almost like a “Swiss Army knife” of yachts! Definitely one of the best ones you’ve filmed and one of the more thoughtfully built boats IMO.

[@AQUAHOLIC]

I'm glad you liked it 🙂

[@davel9130]

Count me among those that prefer the galley forward layout. Galley aft might be great for entertaining, but putting the seating area aft maximizes the enjoyment space and links that to the outside. I think the designers of this boat nailed it.

[@jamesmclellan6301]

One of the best designed long haul boats of this size I’ve seen even a long term live aboard. As a skipper both helms are good but hats off for the lower with great visibility. Option for bigger tanks for longer range and even a water maker. Best I start saving or sell one of my motorbikes. Great video Nick.

Many thanks! 🙂

[@keithjohnstone3446]

Fascinating boat Nick. I'm a retired truck mechanic of 50 years. I was an apprentice in the late 60s / early 70s and most British trucks were powered by some form of marine engine, Gardner and Perkins come to mind. These old plodders were soon outdated along with British engineering of the day. What followed was the glorious Cummins, Volvo, Scania, Caterpillar, MAN etc. These manufacturers still powering trucks and boats to this day. Having said all of this one of my favourite engines to work on was the Rolls Royce Eagle diesel a partnership with Perkins. At night the turbo glowed red in the dark... wonderful stuff. Keep up the good work.

[@AQUAHOLIC]

[@peterjordan-turner8789]

Just superb. I've been waiting for this tour, and it didn't disappoint. The design is excellent, and carries on where the ST50 left off. They only need to put a dumb waiter between the galley and the flybridge and it's ready to go.

First time ever I’ve seen a place for the rubbish, I have been asking for ages. Well done Beneteau 😊😊😊

Too true. Trash becomes a major concern once you spend any time out. Provisions for that seem far too rare, even on the marina queens.

[@Jagcycle]

What a fantastic layout! Super practical. I love it!

[@remkosinck2268]

Exellent video. But one more thing should probably be mentioned, something users of these kind of boats really love: the stabilizers. Beneteau fitted the Sleipner fins that are also functional at zero speed and when at anchor. They are all electric so no noise at night when you opt for the solar/battery package that you showed. “ The latest Sleipner Vector Gen 3 fins provide excellent stability with 360-degree control”

[@tomvancil8213]

Excellent mention!

[@kokomo9764]

While not a red wine freak, reds need to be chilled to between 55-65F, depending on the type of red and personal taste. So, some minimal cooling capacity is required. Room temperature is not really room temperature. Ok, to the boat. I am very impressed. I did not think I would be, but this is a very well thought out boat. I could easily live on this in South Florida. Thanks, Nick! 😊

[@nicbennett6554]

Brilliant tour as usual Nick, thank you. Thorough and enjoyable. I’m around two decades from retirement, but I could certainly see myself spending a few months a year on board one of these pottering around the UK and beyond. Really liked this one, perfect for the intended use.

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Totally agree, perfect boat for it.

[@tonybazz53]

As a 71 year old active grandfather this thoughtfully designed vessel hits the mark on absolutely everything. I think the layout is fabulous. That side door off the galley just rocks. Curious about both draft and air draft so the Bimini option might work better for me. I suppose multiple days at anchor would make the solar option most useful. I wonder how many hours of run time you could get just sitting in the sun all day. I would opt for the gas cooker in order to possibly not run the generator as often. Love the heating and ventilating system. The quick access lazarette is pure genius especially with the clever davit system . The 1.2 million seems very reasonable for a boat with such high spec with tons of real estate and very livable accommodations not to mention the performance. I didn’t see any stabilization which is a pricey option or a water maker. I could tell by Nick’s enthusiasm that he is quite taken with everything this pocket explorer yacht has to offer. Thank you Nick for exhibiting the same passion while touring this gem as a super yacht.

[@aardvarkmindshank]

Definitely needs a water maker if you have women onboard, in my experience 😂

[@AQUAHOLIC]

You're very welcome!

[@gregwhittington3844]

Beneteau shows a fin system for stabilization on their ST54 homepage that works at rest or is underway!

[@RH-xm5uk]

Mind you that the 1.2 million is the base price (ex VAT) as per the Beneteau website. So all the specs shown here comes as extra.

Bunks are brilliant!!! As a former architect student so appreciate use of space plus it's a square which feels good. BRAVO

[@r.a.monigold9789]

While the term "idyllic" refers to a time or place of pleasing perfection - the name Beneteau Swift Trawler 54 should be added. With a central galley and four dinning areas there is a separate longe that needs no "converting" for dinning. Three generous staterooms each with heads access. The inside route to the fly brige / outdoor cooking and dining areas is very clever. Aft facing rear seating is wonderful. Nothing but "idyllic" stem to stern, Thanks, Nick.

[@godlyobject6509]

This is the biggest 54' boat I've ever seen. Great job, once again, Nick!

[@kennethmacleod111]

The best of the Swift Trawlers! Smartest trawler layout by far! Thanks Nick.

[@bryduhbikeguy]

What a wonderful 'floating home'. You said there are 2 more 'roof' options for the flybridge, and I can't help thinking a hardtop that dropped back and down for low bridges, and covering most things when not in use would really set a high mark in most peoples check list, as it could still be totally covered with solar panels.Maybe hull 3. :) Cheers Nick, and friends.

[@seanogden927]

That is a fantastic boat, definitely a lot of thought gone into this, great finishes and a great flow and layout. I think this would be a great first boat to get into sailing. I wish my pension was big enough to buy one. Great tour Nick thank you.

[@markshutt1476]

I was liking this boat, interior fly bridge ladder and galley/forward dining, until you opened that lazerette. I absolutely love that, genius. And @ 2,000 miles at @ 5 knots, oh yeah. Talk about a tucked in with a good book, your loved ones and a bottle of wine. Heaven.

[@kiken2941]

I could very much see this as an alternative early retirement option to that cottage in the country. (For those that could afford it) Plenty big enough for a couple to live aboard but not too big to handle. Room for family to come stay for a while. Wake up to a different view each morning if you felt like it.

[@BoatingMarketPlace]

Been waiting for this video! Have delivered and instructed on various ST42, ST44, ST52 and the most recent ST48 - the ST Range are some of my favourite consumer-level-market passage makers because of the ability to cruise at displacement and go fast, with a really flatish fuel burn. Brilliant boats all round, great predictability to handle in close quarters marina environments, and comfy on multi-day and overnight displacement speed passage-making. 👍

[@BoatingMarketPlace]

@@sharonbraselton3135 Hi! Yes i think the hull forms have been described as a semi-displacement type, you're absolutely right; what I was referring to as written was travelling at 'displacement speed' and cruising 'at displacement'. These are just terms used to convey that the through-water log speeds being travelled at are not 'planing speeds' or 'on the plane'. The terms 'i'm at displacement' or 'MCD' 'Max Continuous Displacement' are, somewhat colloquial contractions but, are nevertheless, widely understood - in my experience and sector - to denote that 'we are' travelling at a through water log speed slower than that which is required for a particular hull form to be 'on the plane', were it capable. It's also used as a quick way to say 'i'm just slowly cruising st this time' e.g. "hi, yes, we will be there in a few hours, we're just sitting 'at displacement' for a while...". Anyway, in terms of the hull-forms you're right that that's how they are described by the manufacturer! Anyway, i'm just off to correct the grammar in the graffiti in the loos with long explanations written in highlighter pen explaining their mistakes, and why i'm so much fun to talk to at dinner parties...Just kidding...That's only semi-true.

[@wowsituations]

probably the best owner operator boat ive seen yet! take me with you, i can be jack or jill depending on your preference.

[@BeingAliveLifeCoaching1]

as always you're a genius and most appreciated ! My first boating experience as a youth was a Burger 72, and then a Grand Banks 50. Needless to say, trawlers have always interested me. Mind you, Sunseeker and others are amazing - but Beneteu has always been true to the Swift brand. I think this new 54 is their best statement ever of that. Everything about it is thoughtful to the level of boats up to twice the price. But the details. You can see in the hatch fittings, wire wraps and many other things that go unseen, how they have matured so much over earlier models. For me, while I love fancy stuff, Swift is grounded and down to earth. I feel comfortable in my shorts and classic T from an 80's concert. Thanks again!!!

[@AQUAHOLIC]

I think the Swift Trawlers are very intriguing and offer an innovative approach. Comparatively, they appear to fall into the ‘coastal cruiser’ end of the trawler genre. They definitely don’t appear to be the equivalent of a Fleming, Marlow, Selene, etc. At least I haven’t seen one documented as an explorer type yacht. But, I assume that they are substantial enough to accomplish the easier passages, avoiding open oceans and seas. It would be great to see an example of one in darker woods. Their lighter woods and tones are just overbearing and cheap looking, the equivalent of being stuck in an IKEA for a few months at a time. The interior looks like the VW Camper van of trawlers.

[@bobjuniel8683]

I think an explorer yacht requires a range of 5000nm at 10.knots. This is a wonderful passage maker for the Mediterranean, Uk and West Coast of Europe, where shorter passages are made between ports. Ideal for the Caribbean, Coastal Cruising and exploring major rivers. A 3.5m Williams tender and some electric bikes for shore exploration and shopping would make this one of the best boats I have seen. I would see it as a boat for a bachelor, a couple, a family with children, and a boat to go fishing with the mates. This boat is a winner all round. Once again you have found an absolute gem. €1.5 million and 56 feet LOA. Well done Nick Burnham AKA Aquaholic.
