This 2016 Marlow Pilot 31 is a hard-top express cruiser built on a fiberglass hull with a single 250-horsepower Yanmar diesel engine. The boat underwent a complete engine repower in February 2026 with a new Yanmar 4LV250, paired with a new ZF transmission and Yanmar digital controls. The repowered engine includes the remaining balance of Yanmar's two-year factory warranty. A full hull bottom stripping was completed with new barrier coat and bottom paint applied. The boat performs efficiently, burning 10 gallons per hour at 16 knots and 1.5 gallons at 7 knots, with a cruising speed of approximately 15.6 knots.
The pilothouse design features a semi-enclosed layout with large side windows and opening vents for airflow. The cabin includes one stateroom and one head. The cockpit offers comfortable seating, storage, a refrigerator, and a dining table, with a Sea Deck swim platform extending the overall length to 35 feet 6 inches. Bow and stern thrusters are fitted for maneuvering. The boat is equipped with an upgraded lithium battery bank and a 1500-watt inverter, providing 120-volt service while underway or at anchor.
A Continental trailer is included with the sale.
