50 Long Range Expedition Trawler 1982

Introducing the Custom 50' Long Range Expedition Trawler, a beautifully engineered vessel built for adventure. This 1982 model spans 50 feet and showcases a robust GRP construction with a full-displacement underwater profile, perfect for long voyages. Accommodating up to six sleeping berths, this vessel is powered by a reliable 165hp diesel engine from John Deere, expertly converted by Lugger Marine in 1985. Currently located in Seattle, WA, this boat is available for viewings by appointment only and comes with an extensive gallery of 216 photos, 1 video, and 16 virtual tours, alongside full specifications and broker comments on our Boats For Sale page. Originally designed as a commercial offshore tuna fishing vessel, its sturdy hull has been expertly transformed into a capable long-range cruising yacht. The exterior may have a commercial look, but step inside to find a tastefully decorated interior featuring varnished trim, quality finishes, and modern appliances. The owner, a professional engineer, meticulously crafted the refit with practicality and comfort in mind. The spacious stand-up engine room, secured by watertight doors, houses a keel-cooled Lugger Marine/John Deere engine with a dry stack exhaust. Maneuvering is made easy with a Side-Power 24-volt bow thruster. The electrical systems are robust, including an Onan 7.5 KW generator and a powerful 12-volt house battery bank with large Trojan cells, complemented by an Outback Inverter/Charger. For comfort, the heating system features three zones powered by a Hurricane diesel hydronic boiler, an electric boiler, and an engine heat exchanger. Accommodations include a full-beam master stateroom with an ensuite marine head, complete with a tiled tub and shower, plus a forward guest cabin with an adjacent office and marine head. The main deck offers a bright, inviting space with a commercial-grade Viking range, Isotherm refrigeration, a spacious galley prep area, and a stacking washer and dryer. The aft salon features raised cork flooring to minimize noise from the master suite below, showcasing thoughtful engineering throughout. This vessel is not just ideal for living aboard; it is designed for safe and comfortable long-distance cruising. Equipped with 1,200 feet of heavy cable and chain for anchoring, and a commercial-grade crane structure for easy transport of supplies, this US-built hull is exempt from Jones Act limitations, allowing for commercial charter operations. Finding a comparable vessel with these features at this price is nearly impossible. This boat is turn-key and ready for your next adventure.
