Yeah, but........ Trawlers are called trawlers because they use trawl gear for fishing. Applying the name "trawler" to a recreational boat started as a marketing gimmick to fool potential cabin cruiser buyers into thinking the boats were as rugged, seaworthy, reliable, etc. as a commercial fishing boat. Of course, for the most part, they aren't.
The term "trawler" is no more applicable to recreational boats like ours than the term "purse seiner" or "battleship." There are fewer battlships on the planet today than trawlers, so should that term start to be applied to something else? Like your Willard?
When people ask me what kind of boat we have I never tell them it's a trawler. I did on a few occasions when we were new to this kind of boating and the response was always "What's that?" So I'd describe it and more often than not they's say, "Oh, its a pleasure boat."
But when I tell people we have a diesel cruising boat or a power cruiser or a diesel cruiser, or just a "cruiser" they know exactly what kind of boat it is. Most of the time now I tell people who ask that we have a "thirty six foot diesel cruiser." And everyone seems to know what type of boat I mean.
As I've mentioned before, American Marine's own description of their Grand Banks line of boats was "Dependable Diesel Cruisers" and they used that line on all their advertising and marketing materials. Which was smart, because that's exactly what they are.
So to me the kind of boats most of us have on this forum will never be trawlers. Unless, of course, somebody whacks together a set of otter doors, hangs a big-ass net from their boom, and starts dragging it around the bottom on their cruises.
