2012 Beneteau 44 Swift Trawler For Sale - Request Price!

The Bénéteau Swift Trawler 44 from 2012 is known as a fast, seaworthy, and economical long-distance cruiser. It combines the features of a trawler with the performance of a planing boat. Designed by Joubert/Nivelt and Pierre Frutschi, it offers a modern and spacious layout suitable for comfortable cruising with up to six guests.

MY Bombus shares the same hull design as the earlier Swift Trawler 42, which is praised for excellent rough-sea handling and responsive driving. It is powered by twin Volvo Penta D4 300 HP engines, reaching a top speed of about 25.6 knots and cruising comfortably at 20 to 22 knots. Fuel consumption is around 70 litres per hour at 20 knots, which is efficient for a boat this size and speed. The boat handles tight turns well with minimal lean and provides a stable, comfortable ride in choppy conditions. It accelerates quickly, reaching planing speed in about 6.3 seconds with a small bow rise. Docking is easy thanks to good visibility and the ability to steer with individual engines.

MY Bombus features a spacious cockpit with teak decking, wide teak side decks for safe movement, and a large flybridge offering ample seating. Inside, it has two cabins, including a master cabin with an en suite bathroom and a VIP cabin with a shared bathroom. It can sleep up to six people comfortably. The boat features large windows, a wider deckhouse, and a deeper swim platform compared to earlier models. It strikes a balance between outdoor enjoyment and interior comfort, making it suitable for day trips, coastal cruising, or longer journeys.

Overall, the 2012 Bénéteau Swift Trawler 44 is a quick, capable, and economical cruiser. It combines the seaworthiness of a trawler with the speed and agility of a planing boat. It is praised for smooth and quiet engines, excellent handling, and comfortable accommodations, making it a versatile choice for coastal and offshore cruising.

All maintenance, including the engines, generator and antifouling paint work, was completed in July 2025 at Ören Marina, and the boat was relaunched into the water following these services. The EU VAT for the boat was paid in Croatia. The owner is open to reasonable offers.

Boat viewings can be arranged at Orhaniye Marina. Appointments are mandatory, and it is required to schedule a viewing at least three days in advance of the intended visit date.
