I just love sleeping aboard our boat, even though it's an under cockpit floor mid berth, we sleep better than at home. We do stay on board regular all year round too.
Always enjoy your reviews, Nick, but as a professional mariner I feel bound to make two observations: setting the autopilot and then heading off for some breakfast, keeping a look out from time to time, does not obey the ColRegs (yes I know single handed yachts don't either); and standing on the bathing platform without wearing a lifejacket with the boat underway and making way is highly ill-advised.
Late arrival but having someone hold the camera for you makes your videos that much more enjoyable. You really do shine as a presenter and reviewer. I hope you are able to do more reviews like these sans pandemic bs. Cheers!
Its still a sailboat interior........built light which might be great for someone coming from a sailboat into the trawler market at a somewhat affordable price point.....
God review Nick. Looking at a lightly used 44 at the moment. Been looking at a lot of the same manufacturers fayre. Yes some twiddly bits and trim etc are a bit naff and seem a bit 'cheap' but heck compared to the price of some others of the same ilk there is a lot to be said about the Swift Trawler range
Hi Nick nice to see you a great review, and your niggles about the boat need looking at and easy to deal with. Like the comment " sit in it, not on it" seats are comfortable. Breakfast with coffee and your fav breakfast food as the coast drifts by with the boat on auto sounds good to me. She is very versatile whether she is going at 8 knots to 20 knots like the dance that goes - slow slow quick quick slow. She planned to maximize the space whether at sea or your throwing a party. An ambling boat. 😀
Hi Nick. Nice boat, im a trawler fan. Expected better quality possibly a seakeeper to help with the roll, good layout. Good tour and honest review, also like the fact they let you on for 24 hrs. Great video
If B&Q made boats this would be it , BUT take away the little niggles of cheap locks and cheap products I love this trawler , for what you pay you get so much , so for someone like me who would boat on a small budget with my family this would be perfect , Nick your boat presentation s and honesty makes you stand out .. Great review 👏 👍
In the article that was listed with this video, it said that at 6 knot speed, you were getting 2 miles per liter consumed. Is this correct? That means with a full tank of 1930 liters, the range is almost 4000 mile range! If that's the case, that's some amazing fuel economy for a relatively big boat, isn't it?
I was a virgin to boating videos until my cousin introduced me to you're excellent displays but now that I've watched numerous others I find myself comparing the way you have such a fluid display and walkthroughs compared to the broken but we'll editted "showboating" style that other people sell,keep up the good work,I'm sure wealthy people think the same thing......ps. if you need a cameraman/person I'm available free of charge,I love the lifestyle just can't afford it but I'll work for passage 😆
great video as usual, wonder what is the range if the speed was between 18-20 knots!? it would be great if you can get the answer for me as I'm really considering this one! appreciate the help in advance and would love to see a new video if possible for this new model of this one. keep them coming please so so so nice to watch your way of videoing and commenting . take care
Naughty person, you were not wearing a life jacket, a man with your knowledge and experience should know better, brilliant walk around keep it up my man 👍👍👍
Thanks Nick lovely boat and show round. Was there a 2nd bathroom? Day heads? Did I miss that bit. Very nice though with some good ideas. Where are the engines situated? Just as well no one pranking you when you were right at the back there!😂😂😂😂
Cheap materials used such as the opening/locking mechanisms for the doors plus the weirdest position of the helm seat ( right on the galley’s countertop), really put me off in considering this one. I guess the rule of you get what you pay for, couldn’t apply more here . What a shame , I mean this is a 47 foot boat and IMO they could come up with better solutions for the layout.
@@bophoto This isn't a Nordhavn or a Selene, and it's not meant to cross oceans; it's meant to be a nice coastwise cruiser and island hopper, or, of course -- being made in France -- a Med boat.
This was the last time Nick Burnham was ever seen, authorities suspecting fowl play say the only trace left of Mr. Burnham was a single left Birkenstock sandal and a used chapstick .
UPDATE: Nick Burnham has been found , local authorities report He was found in line at a nearby Starbucks where He had been since Saturday. Police site the massive popular Carmel Macchiato as the culprit " People just love that shit", Lt. Richard Nibbler stated , "My wife doesn't come home for days and she says she was out getting some of that dark roast".
Two wide side decks loses cabin width. Two narrow side decks and forward access isn't good. Asymmetric side decks allow one really good forward access while minimising loss of cabin width.
I want to like these boats. It should be my go to. Something about those interiors, fit and finish, the colours/layout and those squeaky floors. I’m in a 93 ‘fast trawler’ that is superior and that is not a good thing!!!!!!
Beneteau build quality is absolute crap.... which is a real shame because their boats are well thought out for the most part and especially for the price point.. such a shame

You can tell just how "cheap" and plasticy the boat is. Caravan that floats comes to mind. His other video of a brand new one at a boat show was so creaky straight out the factory. Great video, not so great boat.

wonderful review . and great boat . all boat reviews which allow life on board, should be done in this very manner . BRAVO .
Absolutely the best boat reviews on the net.
A perfect review and tour of an almost perfect boat.

Just had to do a double take there! Put the subtitles on and it starts with "We've been invited to test the brand-new banana Taylor Swift trawler" :-)

That's a really great boat review, well done Nick.
Great review, balance and objective, unlike others who are trying to sell you the boat.

Great review providing point of view of someone who just purchased on. Little things noted can actually be huge issues on the daily.
Been waiting for some critical comments in your estates and here they are, brilliant.
Love that style of review. Need more videos that way. Keep up the good work......
Coolest music bed I've heard in a long time on TH-cam - what was it?

Wowww...just perfect boat indeed
You can dimm the light by hold down the light switch.
the dimmers work,just need to keep your finger on the button.sheiber is a fragile system though
Squeeky floors !! I hope people expect more quality than that !

Pss. I'm from the emerald Isle
all in all,a good replacement for the trawler 44.your weak points have been noted
great video as usual,
wonder what is the range if the speed was between 18-20 knots!? it would be great if you can get the answer for me as I'm really considering this one!
appreciate the help in advance
and would love to see a new video if possible for this new model of this one.
keep them coming please
so so so nice to watch your way of videoing and commenting .
take care
Our sea trial suggested a 325nm range at 20 knots. You can read the full article here: www.mby.com/reviews/trawler-yachts/beneteau-swift-trawler-47
Naughty person, you were not wearing a life jacket, a man with your knowledge and experience should know better, brilliant walk around keep it up my man 👍👍👍

I do enjoy Nick's videos.

The helm seat folds forward onto the ships wheel when not under way giving you plenty of counter space
Room partition curtain runs close left of the hob. Window curtain runs close back of the hob. Risky?
1200l fuel tank at 6l per hour, interesting range!
1930 Liter
Still a fair bit short of SanDiego to Hawaii
1930 indeed

Great review, but imo seemed small for a 47 footer.
Funny socks 👍🏻
I'd take a relaxing 6 lph over 100 lph any day. Relax and enjoy the ride.

Doesn't have a motor room BRILLIANT. and 3litres per hour. WHAAAAT
Best wideos👍 thanks
My girlfriend not looking at my screen: "Does Nigel Thornberry do boat walkthroughs now?"
Great video.
What's the point of the asymmetrical design? I think that would bother me.
Two wide side decks loses cabin width. Two narrow side decks and forward access isn't good. Asymmetric side decks allow one really good forward access while minimising loss of cabin width.
AQUAHOLIC Ok thanks.
no engine room?
Great video !

Great 😀👍🏼
47 ft is not a cabin cruiser, it should be better made than that
Put me off it a bit i prefer the magellano 53
2018 and no gimbal on camera, cmon...
Right down to the seating position in the lower helm cockpit. Horrible ergonomics. I’m gutted. Wish it wasn’t so.
We have a Beneteau Swift Trawler 42 2016 model.
No Image how do u like it. Thinking or getting one or a 35
Beneteau build quality is absolute crap.... which is a real shame because their boats are well thought out for the most part and especially for the price point.. such a shame
Audio quality is bad
Not exactly my idea of a Yacht. Do 24 hours on a Fleming please to contrast the difference between a real Yacht and this...thing..
The difference between "this thing" and a Fleming is how many millions of dollars?
@ The SUV would be just fine as a Great Loop boat though.

Typical Pom, starts with the whinging, rather than the good bits followed by a few caveats.
