BUY, SELL AND TRADE TRAWLERS AND TRAWLERING GEAR
View all threadsDo you love the salty lines of a classic trawler but don't want to deal with "old boat issues"? Look no further. Our plans to move up to a larger vessel have placed this lovingly restored 1983 Monk 36 trawler on the market and she is looking for a loving home. No expense has been spared on her comprehensive refit over the last year and a half. 3 page summary of all completed projects and all work professionally done and documented. 2 stateroom/2head layout (electric head forward, new Raritan Marine Elegance freshwater flush vacuum electric head aft). Large flybridge with teak table seats 4-5 as well as built in seating. Upper and lower helms. New bimini. Foredeck and aft bridge deck professionally recored with synthetic coring (will never absorb water), all topsides and transom painted, GRANITE COUNTERTOPS and new appliances in galley, reconfigured forward stateroom from a single double berth to a bunk bed/v berth configuration, upgraded electrical, fuel tanks pressure tested to assure no leaks, 2 newer HVAC units, dripless shaft seals, the list goes on.... Just under 1,900 hours on her single Perkins 6.354 135hp diesel and only 325 on her 8KW Northern Lights generator (newer and not original to boat) that comes equipped with a soundshield. Mechanically she has run flawlessly. Cosmetically...well, she gets compliments on her anywhere she goes and people stop on the docks all the time asking about her and wanting to tour her. No leaks at windows or doors and none of the stereotypical damaged interior woodwork resulting from lack of care. She started her life in San Diego and moved to freshwater on Lake Lanier circa 1997/1998 and now on the Tennessee River in Chattanooga and has never been in salt water since. She shows as a freshwater vessel not as saltwater. 9.5' Avon RIB dinghy included (1993) and older but seemingly indestructible 6hp Evinrude included. She is a charming and capable trawler that has had a lot of love and money poured into her. Perfect for doing the great loop, cruising your local waters, or just enjoying a sunset cruise with a sense of class and happiness not to be found on a cookie cutter boat. Excellent condition. If you are looking for a great trawler with solid following and market appeal that is in great shape you will appreciate this Monk 36. You will not be disappointed by this exemplary example of the classic Monk 36. No teak decks!!! Over 100 pictures online here:

I am a broker but again, this is our personal vessel. We are only selling as we are getting a larger (pilothouse) boat. She is ready to do the loop as all the loopers are here now on the TN River so come join the fun! All details of the refit available and all documented.
