Trawler Spotlight

Live the good life in luxury and comfort aboard a trawler. Designed for year-round, long-term cruising, trawlers remain the perfect waterborne cottage. Large galleys (often with full-size appliances), spacious cabins (plenty of headroom), central heating and air-conditioning (plus hot-and-cold running water), make these boats feel like home, whether you're tied up at a resort marina or anchored in some quiet cove. Want to stay in the fast lane? Innovative hull designs and powerful engines get these vessels up and moving-no lagging behind the rest of the fleet anymore-unless you want to take it slow.
