We didn’t stay in business for more than 30 years by building boats just like everyone else’s. Our trawlers have had to be different, and they’ve had to be better. We didn’t stay in business for more than 30 years by shrinking from a fight, either. Conventional wisdom in boating nowadays is driven by the marketing efforts of big manufacturers. The internet has proven itself an excellent equalizer, however, letting us put forth opposing philosophies. This has been particularly true in our trawler sections because of the astounding amount of wrongheaded thinking in this growing niche market.

    We’re not trying to prove that our boats can go around the world. Those designs are usually undesirable for  the Bahamas or the ICW. We’re out to prove that we’ve got the most versatile vessels for the kind of cruising most Americans want to do, including trips to Bermuda, from Florida to San Diego and California to Hawaii.
