1983 Chris-Craft West Indian Trawler Sold Boat in Pasadena, MD US

Chris Craft built only eight of these beautiful and durable trawlers. There were 4 with single Perkins engines and only 4 with Twin Perkins engines. This is one of only 4 with the Twin Perkins Engines.

They were designed by noted naval architect Charley Morgan. Originally, these trawlers were called West Indian 36 and built by Heritage Yachts, Morgan's company. Chris Craft bought the tooling and upgraded the design and called the trawler a Chris Craft 362 West Indian Trawler. The sheer has that characteristic graceful downeast upward sweep.
