Had to take the admiral over to the Gainesville Airport today and after dropping her off, I made a short detour to drive by the Mirage/Great Harbour shop. Last time I drove by (maybe 18-24 months ago), all 4 stalls had TT35's in various stages of manufacturing. Today, I saw one N37, one TT35...

Welcome to Trawler Forum! Which hull number will be yours and which options did you select? About a month or so ago I saw my first TT35 planing by our house on the St Johns. Others may have cruised by and I missed them. She looked rather sweet on river. Looking forward to hearing your experiences.

Finding trashy trawlers is real easy. Just go to Craigslist and select boats for sale by owner and then search or trawler and/or trawlers. You will find plenty of them. Here is one of my favorites (disclaimer - it may or may be wood)...

Suspect KVH is working on a marine antenna solution but have no specific knowledge of such.

Aluminum American Tug Not really an American Tug but looks one in gray of course. If I lived in the PNW, I could really like this boat. https://www.yachtworld.co.uk/boats/2006/waterline-rutherford-40-3726647/

Matsumoto built one-off 1953 Monk This is a beautiful boat if the bright work doesn't kill you. It was repowered in 2009 with new Perkins M 135s and over 80% replanked last year. She should last a long time. https://www.yachtworld.co.uk/boats/1953/monk-sedan-3725794/

Found a Facebook page for HRH Lola and it appears it is/was used for charters. https://www.facebook.com/charteryachtlola/ Nice looking gal in a few of the pics. She might be the owner or the admiral. Hey Old Dan, just dream of the chicks you could pick up with that boat.

New owner could rename her "Brothel of the Seas"!

It would take a small fortune just to paint it white again! I was led to believe the Hats had built in FRP tanks. If it is 2 tanks at 330 gallons each, that is not too bad. I doubt if the tanks were changed from original. :lol::lol::lol::thumb:

Interesting Hatteras Kind of hard to find an interesting Hat, but this one seems over the top. I need to be careful to not show this to the admiral or my bank account will take a big hit. Maybe the owner should put it on Pinterest...

Wait for Starlink and then you can go anywhere.

Aluminum Burger LRC 1981 Burger with stabilization, canoe stern and Portuguese bridge just popped up on YW. Really nice looking boat and on the east coast too. https://www.yachtworld.co.uk/boats/1981/burger-long-range-cruiser-3717031/

Saw that boat yesterday on YW and I was thoroughly intimidated by the 29' beam.

I am impressed the Camano can be racked and launched with a fork lift. That should save a lot of bucks on haulouts.

The Great Orca is on the market! (Builder Unknown) Another nice aluminum PNW pilothouse trawler on the market. I seem to be a real sucker for these ole gals. https://www.yachtworld.co.uk/boats/1974/custom-pilothouse-trawler-3707827/
