Canadian Yachting October 2016 - 76
Especially with the innovative transom and glass bulkhead
doors all open, the salon and cockpit seem like a much
larger boat.
service points are easily accessed through this one large floor
hatch. Delphine Andre made a point of noting that the boat
is equipped with tanks on port and starboard to ensure balance and that the salon couch can slide to reveal another
hatch for the less frequently needed service points. Long-distance cruisers will care that the boat carries 720 L (190
Gallons) of fuel and can make approximately 250 nautical
miles while traveling at 14 to 15 knots.
LOWER HELM
The helm side cabin door is surprisingly large and offers
excellent access as well as ventilation when running. There
is a doublewide helm seat and tremendous glass areas for
great outward visibility. A cruising couple can make a long
passage together in the air-conditioned salon at the lower
helm. It has a large ship's wheel, footrest, controls on the
dashboard, a centre mounted compass and an optional 16inch Raymarine multifunction display.
Other important points about the lower helm are that the
boat can be equipped with thrusters for easy docking, autopilot makes long passages effortless and there is easy access to
all of the dashboard electrical systems.
The upper helm station includes a complete set of controls
with multifunction display for full navigation from the upper
station. To reduce the bridge clearance significantly, they
have designed the table to be removable, the helm seat to
fold down and the entire dashboard and wheel assembly to
also fold down.
FLYING BRIDGE
Next, we went up the ladder to the flying bridge and
Delphine emphasized the feeling of safety you get on this
very generously sized flying bridge. Side rails are high and
designed so that children can't fall through. On the port side
is a U- shaped seat around a small table with drink holders
and the helm seat has a clever flip-flop removable backrest.
SEA TRIAL
John Armstrong had the pleasure of sea trialing this new Swift
model with Justin Joyner, Manager, Beneteau America Power
Boats and renowned marine photographer, Billy Black.
The sea trial took place in Sarasota Bay where the winds
were light to moderate, the tide was running and the temperature was in the low eighties. Getting off the dock was a

For best fuel economy, cruise slowly and make good use of
the fully equipped lower helm in the air conditioned comfort
of the salon.
