2003 Cape Horn Trawler

The 2003 Cape Horn 65 Trawler is a steel-hulled motor yacht built for serious ocean cruising. Powered by a single 440-horsepower Cummins diesel engine, the boat cruises at 7 knots and reaches a maximum speed of 10 knots. The hull measures 65 feet in length with a 19.5-foot beam, providing substantial volume and stability.

The design incorporates multiple systems for seakeeping and safety: an azimuthing Z-drive, active fin stabilizers, and a bow thruster. The accommodations include two heads, and the interior layout was developed by megayacht designer Jane Plachter-Vogel. A flybridge, full side decks, and walk-around engine room provide operational flexibility and access throughout the vessel. The boat is equipped with comprehensive systems and redundancies typical of expedition-class trawlers.

The steel construction and design philosophy reflect Cape Horn's reputation for building sturdy, offshore-capable yachts. This particular example has cruised extensively across North American waters, including New England, the Canadian Maritimes, and the Pacific Northwest.
