Beneteau will summon an impressive fleet of 20 models at this year's Cannes Yachting Festival, covering all of its boating sectors. The Festival is an important platform for the brand to showcase how it continues its legacy and brings innovation into its new-generation models.
Two World Premieres and one European Premiere will be launched at Cannes, aligning with Beneteau's global strategy of presenting new boating projects at the most important boat shows around the world.
Beneteau inboard motorboat: the Swift Trawler 47 World Premiere
Beneteau will reveal the Swift Trawler 47—a spacious and social long-distance cruiser—at the show for her world premiere. Featuring a greater cruising range and stronger power as well as an incredible feeling of space, the Swift Trawler 47 is designed to be even more sociable, making her ideal for boating with family and friends. Designed with three cabins and a sofa bed, the 47 can provide up to eight berths. Her sister models, the 44 and the 35, will also be on display.
Two models from Monte Carlo cruisers—the Monte Carlo 6 and the Monte Carlo 5—will join the exhibiting fleet, combining style, power, and luxury.
As for Beneteau's sport cruisers, the Gran Turismo 50, 46, and 40 will make appearances at the show, featuring state-of-the-art technologies and elegant design for a top cruising experience.

Beneteau has upgraded the standards of its Flyer range this year, and will present the brand-new Flyer 8 Sundeck and Spacedeck at Cannes. Spacious and practical, the two new-generation Flyers have a certified capacity of 10 people and can be easily transported. Equipped with Air Step2, the two new vessels offer quick lift-off, comfort, and great stability at sea for daily boating needs.
Meanwhile, the Antares 9— the latest model from Beneteau's time-honored Antares range—will be exhibited, as well as the highly-dynamic fishing boat, the Barracuda 9.
