Why I might trade my Steel Boat for THIS (Beneteau €299k Swift Trawler 35)

I usually preach the gospel of "Heavy Steel & Displacement Hulls." But when a 2019 trawler that can hit 19 knots appeared for €299k, I had to investigate. Is this the boat that finally makes me switch to fiberglass?

IN THIS VIDEO: We are onboard a 2019 Beneteau Swift Trawler 35. Unlike my usual project boats, this thing smells like a new car. It features a semi-planning hull, a massive 425HP Cummins engine, and zero rust. I’m testing if the "Soul" of an old steel boat is really worth the maintenance headache when you could be cruising at 15 knots in this.
