1983 C&L Marine 46 Aft Cabin

Introduction

About the 1983 C&L Marine 46 Aft Cabin

When selecting a trawler for cruising the Pacific Northwest up to Alaska, or down to Mexico, you’ll want a vessel that balances seaworthiness, comfort, fuel efficiency, and reliability to handle the region’s ever-changing conditions.

C&L Marine is well known for building robust hulls that are seaworthy and comfortable with enough weight to move smoothly through feisty seas. Their interiors were built by skilled craftsmen with enduring aesthetics and high-quality materials no longer available to modern builders. With cabins both for and aft, there is plenty of space for two couples to travel with privacy while being able to enjoy the salon, back deck and command bridge together. She has all the equipment you need for safe and comfortable cruising.

For the last 9 months, the owner worked with a dedicated engineer to systematically maintain every system on board, servicing everything from the heater, refrigeration, water maker, heat exchanger, etc., to ensure the boat remains reliable for the owners. Circumstances change, and the owner needs to return to Europe and is selling their beautiful trawler.

Within the last 5 years, there have been a significant number of upgrades and investments. Here are some examples.

  • New teak decks - glued down with no concerns for water intrusion

  • New AC/DC Panels and new wiring

  • Refinished wood floors in the salon
