A trawler is a power boat designed for long-range cruising with fuel efficiency, seaworthiness, and live-aboard comfort in mind. To achieve these goals, your typical trawler will often have a full displacement or semi-displacement hull that achieves 7-10 knot cruising speed using minimal fuel. Trawlers are popular among boaters cruising worldwide, especially in the Gulf of Mexico, Bahamas, and Great Loop, where a capable, steady vessel is required.
