BLESSED | 2022 Beneteau Swift Trawler 35Great Loop Veteran | Proven Solo Cruiser
BLESSED is a 2022 Beneteau Swift Trawler 35 that has already accomplished one of boating's greatest adventures — America's Great Loop! Having completed the Loop with a solo operator, BLESSED offers a compelling combination of efficient cruising, manageable size, easy handling, and comfortable accommodations.
BLESSED represents an exceptional opportunity for a couple preparing to tackle the Great Loop, experienced cruisers looking to simplify, or anyone searching for a capable late-model coastal cruiser.
Powered by a single Cummins 425 HP diesel with 1,210 hours, BLESSED offers the flexibility to cruise economically at 7–8 knots, with estimated fuel consumption of approximately 2.5–3.5 gallons per hour, or increase speed when your cruising plans call for it. Her Cummins Onan generator has just 220 hours.
One of the Swift Trawler 35's greatest strengths is how thoughtfully she is designed for owner-operators. Her wider starboard side deck, convenient sliding access directly from the lower helm, starboard boarding gate, and bow and stern thrusters make docking, locking, and handling lines particularly manageable. BLESSED's history as a solo-operated Great Loop boat speaks volumes about the practicality of this design.
Inside, expansive salon windows create a bright, open atmosphere with excellent visibility. A comfortable convertible dinette, beautifully finished woodwork, and well-equipped U-shaped galley provide an inviting living space for extended cruising. The lower helm offers excellent sightlines and convenient access to the side deck.
Below, BLESSED features two private staterooms. The forward owner's cabin includes an island berth, while the guest cabin offers twin bunk berths. The salon sofa also makes into a bed with a curtain that pulls across, separating it from the galley and other sleeping accommodations on the boat. With the 2 staterooms and the pull-out couch, this 37ft boat has room for 6 adults to sleep. A shared head with a separate enclosed shower provides the comfort and functionality appreciated by liveaboard cruisers.
Outdoor spaces are equally impressive. The spacious flybridge provides an elevated helm station and comfortable seating, while the cockpit connects directly to the swim platform through Beneteau's innovative opening transom. Telescoping Hurley tender brackets provide convenient support for the included 3 person tender.
With approximately 211 gallons of fuel capacity, a shallow 3'10" draft, and comfortable accommodations, BLESSED is designed for exploring inland waterways, coastal destinations, and beautiful anchorages without the size and complexity of a larger yacht.
Her combination of modern styling, practical cruising systems, excellent maneuverability, and impressive fuel efficiency makes BLESSED a particularly attractive choice in today's trawler market.
Whether your plans include America's Great Loop, the Bahamas, seasonal cruising, or simply enjoying more time on the water, BLESSED is ready to help make those plans a reality.
She's already completed the Great Loop. Now she's ready for your next adventure.

Boarding BLESSED immediately reveals the practical design that has made the Beneteau Swift Trawler 35 such a popular choice among experienced cruisers.
The spacious swim platform provides convenient water access and connects to the cockpit through an innovative opening transom arrangement. Hurley tender support brackets offer a practical solution for carrying the included tender.
The cockpit features a protected seating area, and convenient access to the flybridge by way of a stainless steel ladder with wooden steps. A large hatch in the cockpit sole provides access to the lazarette generator compartment and mechanical equipment.
Moving forward, the Swift Trawler's asymmetric deck layout becomes apparent. The generous starboard side deck, secure handrails, and starboard boarding gate make moving around the boat and handling dock lines particularly convenient.
Sliding glass doors lead from the cockpit into the salon, where large surrounding windows fill the interior with natural light and provide excellent views of the water.
The salon features comfortable seating and a convertible dinette to starboard, with a well-equipped U-shaped galley forward to port. The lower helm is located forward to starboard, with excellent visibility and direct access to the side deck through a sliding helm door.
A companionway leads below to two private staterooms and a shared head with separate enclosed shower. The forward owner's cabin offers an island berth, while the guest cabin to port features upper and lower bunk berths.
Above, the spacious flybridge offers a second helm station, comfortable seating, and an inviting area to relax or entertain while enjoying the surrounding scenery.
Throughout BLESSED, thoughtful design choices emphasize visibility, accessibility, efficient use of space, and ease of operation. These qualities are especially appreciated during extended cruising and transiting America's Great Loop.
BLESSED features a comfortable two-stateroom, one-head layout designed to accommodate a cruising couple while providing additional sleeping space for family or guests.
Owner's Stateroom — Forward
Guest Stateroom — Port
Head and Shower
The salon sofa also converts to provide additional sleeping accommodations when needed.
This practical arrangement makes BLESSED especially well suited for a couple planning extended cruising while retaining the ability to accommodate occasional guests.
The salon aboard BLESSED is bright, welcoming, and thoughtfully designed to maximize comfort and visibility.
Large surrounding windows provide excellent natural light and panoramic views, while opening windows and doors encourage refreshing airflow during pleasant cruising weather.
The comfortable convertible dinette is positioned to starboard, providing a convenient area for dining, relaxing, or entertaining. The table can be lowered to create additional sleeping accommodations when needed.
Additional salon features include:
The salon's connection to the cockpit creates an inviting indoor-outdoor living arrangement that makes the boat feel considerably larger than her overall dimensions suggest.
The U-shaped galley is located forward to port in the salon, providing a practical and well-organized workspace for preparing meals underway, at anchor, or in the marina.
Its placement allows the cook to remain connected to the salon and enjoy the surrounding views.
Galley features include:
The combination of generous counter space, practical storage, and efficient appliances makes this galley well-suited for extended cruising.
BLESSED is powered by a single Cummins QSB6.7 425 HP diesel engine paired with a ZF Marine transmission. This proven propulsion arrangement provides an appealing balance of efficiency, performance, accessibility, and simplicity.
At an economical cruising speed of 7–8 knots, estimated fuel consumption is approximately 2.5–3.5 gallons per hour, making BLESSED particularly attractive for long-distance cruising.
For owners who occasionally need additional speed, the Swift Trawler 35's semi-planing hull offers the ability to operate at higher cruising speeds when conditions permit.
Mechanical equipment and specifications include:
The single-engine arrangement, combined with bow and stern thrusters, offers manageable docking characteristics without the additional maintenance requirements of twin main engines.
BLESSED features an electrical system designed to support comfortable cruising, marina stays, and time at anchor.
Her Cummins Onan generator provides onboard AC power when shore power is unavailable, while the inverter supports selected electrical loads without requiring the generator to operate continuously.
Electrical equipment includes:
The combination of shore power, generator power, and inverter capability provides flexibility for extended cruising.
BLESSED is equipped with Raymarine navigation electronics at both the lower helm and flybridge, providing navigation information and convenient vessel control from either steering station.
The lower helm offers excellent visibility, with controls positioned for comfortable operation and quick access to the starboard side deck.
This boat also includes Dock Mate remote control offering control of the engine, thrusters and windlass for a remote all around the boat. An absolute game changer for docking and locking when short handed.

The dual-helm arrangement provides additional flexibility for navigating in changing weather conditions and selecting the most comfortable steering position.
The Swift Trawler 35 features a practical exterior layout that makes moving around the vessel safe and convenient, whether cruising as a couple or operating single-handed.
One of the design's most distinctive features is its asymmetric side-deck arrangement, providing a wider starboard side deck for easier access between the cockpit, helm, and foredeck.
Deck and exterior equipment includes:
Foredeck and Side Decks
Cockpit and Swim Platform
Flybridge
The opening transom and innovative tender arrangement are particularly useful features for owners who regularly launch a dinghy or enjoy watersports.
The elevated flybridge also offers an excellent vantage point for navigating, relaxing at anchor, or entertaining guests.
BLESSED's design incorporates several practical features that support safe operation and movement throughout the vessel.
Safety-related equipment and features include:
BLESSED comes equipped with a Hurley davit system and an included tender powered by an ePropulsion electric outboard motor.
Both the tender and electric motor have never been used, offering the next owner an excellent setup for exploring anchorages, visiting waterfront destinations, and heading ashore while cruising.
The Hurley davit system provides a convenient way to store and deploy the tender from the swim platform. Combined with the quiet, clean operation of the ePropulsion electric motor, this is an especially desirable feature for Great Loop and coastal cruising.
