Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Beneteau Antares 11 OB 2021 vs Beneteau Swift Trawler 34 2010 — Same Brand, Different Boat
The Beneteau Antares 11 OB 2021 vs Beneteau Swift Trawler 34 2010 comparison sits squarely in the category of decisions where specs alone won't tell the whole story — intended use, storage, and long-term ownership costs all factor in.
The power gap is worth calling out. Rated to 425 hp, the Beneteau Swift Trawler 34 2010 has a 125-hp advantage over the Beneteau Antares 11 OB 2021's 300-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load. Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Beneteau Swift Trawler 34 2010 carries 211 gallons versus 106 gallons in the Beneteau Antares 11 OB 2021. On a lake day that's negligible, but for coastal cruising or long reservoir runs the extra range matters.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Beneteau Swift Trawler 34 2010 is rated for 11 passengers, while the Beneteau Antares 11 OB 2021 caps at 9. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Beneteau Swift Trawler 34 2010 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Beneteau Swift Trawler 34 2010 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 11 passengers and at 36,6 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Beneteau Antares 11 OB 2021 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 9 that costs less to run day-to-day.
