1992 Custom Marine Metals Charles Wittholz Aluminum Trawler

Step aboard and you’ll notice how the aluminum hull isn’t just about strength—it’s about confidence when the forecast turns murky. The Charles Wittholz lines give this trawler a purposeful stance in the water, with a generous working deck and reassuringly high rails that make line handling and anchoring feel easy and secure. Inside, the layout favors practical passagemaking: wide companionways, grab points where you expect them, and sightlines that let you keep an eye on the sea even while you’re off watch. Thoughtful tankage and systems access mean routine maintenance won’t steal your weekends, and the low, steady motion at displacement speeds turns long days underway into genuinely relaxing miles.

In these waters, conditions can shift from glassy calm to choppy and confused in a heartbeat, and that’s where this aluminum trawler really shines. The efficient hull form is built for steady, economical cruising, letting you cover distance without constantly hunting for fuel docks. Shallow to moderate draft opens up quieter anchorages and tucked‑away inlets that deeper vessels often pass by. With substantial deck space and a secure wheelhouse, you’re well set up for both foul‑weather passages and lazy afternoons on the hook. This is a boat that rewards patient cruising, giving you the range, durability, and comfort to explore this region on your own terms.
