I have searched long and hard to find a boat that all the hardcore trawler forum folks can agree upon as being the "poster boat" here at trawler forum...you know...a good solid, rugged, and salty traditional trawler that we can all mutually use as the gold standard for judging most all other designs, whether they be new or traditional in scope, age, or concept. It's been a long search and the flybridge/no flybridge debate, along with the twin vs. single debate, not to mention teak or no teak debate, well...they mutually made the task rather daunting at times but finally...finally, I believe I have discovered our new poster boat. As such, I am pleased to present her to you all for mutual respect and admiration. Her traditional lines I know are going to excite many of us here at TF. I am sure we can all see the design references to Ed Monk, Art Defever, et al.
