New Great Harbour TT35: An Outboard-Powered Trawler that You Can Trailer Anywhere

The new Great Harbour TT35, which will be launched at the Annapolis powerboat show starting Oct. 12, combines two growing trends: Outboard power, and trailerability. It’s designed to pack in all the comforts of a single-stateroom, liveaboard trawler with the ease, efficiency and cost-effectiveness of an outboard-powered boat that can be launched and retrieved and then trailered to cruising grounds all around the U.S. and Canada.

The new Great Harbour has home-like amenities, including a queen island berth in the master stateroom, a full-featured galley and a large head with a separate shower. The salon can hold extra guests for overnights, while the cockpit is covered for protection from the weather; it also can be fitted with a full weather enclosure. And the drop-down “tailgate” extends the cockpit and serves as a swim platform. The boat’s shallow draft – only 15 inches – opens up gunkholing possibilities on the Great Loop or elsewhere.

The hull form provides a combination of speed and efficiency. Powered by two 60-hp Suzuki four-stroke outboards with heavy-duty lower units, the Great Harbour tops out at 25 mph; the company says that at its cruising speed of 15 mph, the TT35 burns less than 4 gph.

The boat has its own custom aluminum trailer and it can be towed by a standard, full-size pickup. And its power generation and climate control are designed to function on land as well as at sea, so the boat can function as a “boater home” during long land trips.

Specs.: LOA: 35’8”; Beam: 10’4”; Draft: 15”; Disp.: 6,500 lbs.; Fuel: 135 gals. Water: NA; Power: 2×60-hp Suzuki outboards. For more: http://greatharbourtrawlers.com
