This Channel is dedicated to showing Yachts, both video walkthough tours as well as on the water videos.
I sell new and used Yachts with South Coast Yachts who always has Beneteau Sail and Power Yachts in stock in San Diego, CA. Beneteau offers a variety of new Sailboats and Powerboats and I also list other brands for sale on the brokerage market.

I own an Antares 11 and I have some plusses and minuses to report. It is very easy to use and the joystick function makes docking a breeze. It handles very well in calm and rough seas - had it out in 6' swell and it was fine. Great speed with twin merc 300's. Great vessel for fun on Narragansett Bay environs. That said, there are some real flaws. First and most inmportantly, quality is not like the old Beneteaus. The company moved production to Poland and the quality is shaky. Leaky overhead, misaligned cabinets, A/C works great in cooler weather but completely fails to keep up with hotter temps (we're in RI which isn't exactly 'hot weather'). Even the toilet seat was dielivered in the wrong size. One design flaw is that the helm is very hot in warm weather - zero wind flow and no windows to allow wind flow. BTW - it is not exactly cheap either. Also, Beneteau completely eliminated ANY direct contact and all complaints/concerns must go through the dealer. It is impossible to complain about a bad dealer to Beneteau HQ
@@Matt-hw6so Yes, I think I would. Beneteau started up a new factory during COVID and there were quality issues. I felt many of those, but they have been worked out and it's a fun boat.
I like the boat. Way overpriced for what you get. If it was updated I could see $400, maybe. As it sits, it needs $150K just to bring it up to speed to go blue water cruising. Too bad really.
Hello! I’m happy to send you a spreadsheet if you like to email sean@scyachts.com, otherwise you can see the consumption at the end of this article www.passagemaker.com/cruiser-reviews/swift-updates-the-beneteau-swift-trawler-35
That is absolutely the nicest passport 40 I've ever seen. I'm looking at one in Seattle now that's pretty nice not as nice as this one the only problem the motor has 6 thousand hours and I'm a little bit leery of that. So I'm looking into the cost to repower the boat if I can get it cheap enough.
Really nice video tour-loved that you showed engine visibility. Lovely yacht. I think it will require more $$$$$$ than I have, but gorgeous boat for someone! Again, you did a great job of showing the important aspects of this yacht. Nice job!
