The 2017 Beneteau Swift Trawler 50 “Amber Roots” represents one of the finest examples of Beneteau’s flagship cruising platform currently available on the market. This Swift Trawler 50 has been thoughtfully outfitted for comfortable long-range cruising throughout the Pacific Northwest, Alaska, and beyond.
Powered by twin Volvo Penta IPS600 diesels with joystick docking and drives that are still under warranty, “Amber Roots” delivers exceptional efficiency, maneuverability, and confidence underway.
