1980 CHB Trawler

This 42-foot CHB trawler is powered by twin Lehman diesel engines producing 240 horsepower, delivering a cruising speed of 8 knots. Built from fiberglass, she has a beam of just under 14 feet and draws minimal draft typical of the trawler design. The yacht carries a Northern Lights generator and is equipped with a full Garmin navigation suite including chart plotter, sounder, radar, and autopilot, all integrated and user-friendly. A 3000-watt inverter supports onboard systems, and a rebuilt Webasto diesel heater with full fly bridge enclosure provides comfortable year-round cruising.

The interior layout centers on a spacious salon with a large dining table and surrounding dinette, well-positioned for entertaining. The galley is compact and efficient, leaving the main living area open and airy. Two heads serve the accommodation spaces. The aft master cabin features a centerline queen berth with overhead sun hatch, generous counter space, and storage throughout. A 103-gallon holding tank supports extended cruising. Recent upholstery, drapes, and fabrics refresh the interior aesthetic.

Recent investments include a new dinghy with 20-horsepower outboard and Seawise davits for convenient launch and retrieval. A complete teak deck restoration was completed in 2024, along with refinished brightwork. House batteries and inverter/charger systems were replaced in 2024. Topsides received fresh bottom paint during a 2024 haul-out. Entertainment systems include 28-inch and 24-inch LCD TV/DVD units in the salon and aft stateroom, with iPod and Bluetooth integration. Additional equipment encompasses new kayaks, paddleboard, fenders, and dock lines.
