2015 American Tug 435

This 2015 American Tug 435 is a coastal trawler defined by its distinctive tugboat styling and raised pilothouse. Built from solid fiberglass below the waterline with cored hull sides above for strength and insulation, it measures 43 feet 7 inches in length with a 15-foot 10-inch beam. The boat is powered by a single Cummins diesel engine producing 500 horsepower, with 450 hours on the engine. It cruises at 8 to 10 knots and reaches speeds up to 16 to 17 knots, with an approximate range of 1,500 to 1,800 nautical miles at economical speeds. A 640-gallon fuel capacity supports extended passages. The hull carries Class A ocean certification and is equipped with electric bow and stern thrusters for enhanced maneuverability.

The layout comprises two staterooms and two heads. The master stateroom amidships spans the full beam and features a walkaround queen berth with an ensuite head and separate shower. The forward guest stateroom was custom ordered with a single berth and ensuite day head. The raised pilothouse offers commanding sight lines with a centerline helm seat and a large port settee that doubles as a watch berth; port and starboard doors provide access, with stairs leading to the flybridge and boat deck. The saloon sits aft of the pilothouse with an L-shaped settee, while the galley to port includes a stovetop, refrigerator-freezer, convection microwave, and substantial counter and storage space.

Additional equipment includes a Northern Lights 9-kilowatt generator with 469 hours, an inverter-charger system, an upper deck with an 800-pound davit and chocks for a tender, and extensive storage throughout. The boat is suitable for extended coastal cruising and long-distance passages.
