1980 SAINT AUGUSTINE Commercial Trawler Vergleichen

Built by Saint Augustine in 1980, this 78-foot Commercial Trawler — measuring 23.77 metres LOA — is a robust and capable motor vessel with a practical layout designed for extended time on the water. Her wide beam of 26'5" and deep draft of 7'5" give her a solid, stable platform, while her 3412 Caterpillar diesel engine provides reliable propulsion at a cruising speed of 10 knots. With a total fuel capacity of 7,500 gallons onboard plus an additional 3,000 gallons on deck, this vessel is built for long-range autonomy.

The vessel accommodates up to 20 berths and includes two heads, a washer/dryer and a fully equipped galley with freezers, coolers and appliances. A John Deere 65kw generator powers the boat's systems, backed by a 40kw generator on deck, and central air conditioning is fitted throughout. The large freezer capacity — rated at 65,000 pounds — reflects the vessel's commercial-grade infrastructure. Hydraulic steering and a comprehensive electronics suite round out the package, including Robertson autopilot, Raritan rudder angle indicator, and Raymarine depth sounder, radar and GPS.

This trawler is well suited to a buyer looking for a high-capacity, long-range motor vessel with proven commercial-grade equipment. Her generous fuel reserves, large crew or guest accommodation and robust mechanical specification make her a practical choice for buyers considering extended offshore operations, commercial use, or a conversion project requiring a solid structural foundation.
