1982 Lien Hwa 31

The Lien Hwa 31 is a Taiwanese trawler built in 1982 with a fiberglass hull measuring 31 feet in length and 11 feet in beam. She is powered by a single Ford Lehman diesel engine rated at 120 horsepower, rebuilt in 2020 and currently running at 1,490 hours. The boat cruises at 6 knots with a maximum speed of 8 knots.

The engine room stands out for its generous proportions relative to boats of this class—offering more working space than many larger trawlers—with clean machinery spaces and freshly painted bilges. The boat features no teak decking, which eliminates typical leak and rot issues. Fuel tanks have been maintained with polishing, interior and exterior paint, and inspection ports added for future access. The single-cabin, single-head layout provides modest accommodation with straightforward layout and functionality.

From 2020 through mid-April 2026, the boat received comprehensive system overhauls including engine rebuild, updated sanitation systems, and deck equipment upgrades. Interior surfaces including varnish, paint, and cabin sole were refinished in April 2026. All major systems and onboard equipment are in working order. A complete maintenance and repair log covering the past six years of ownership documents the work completed.
