Camano 31 Trawler

The Camano 31 provides a tightly-sealing large aft opening door. Moving into the main cabin there is an L-shaped convertible dinette to port with a custom wood cabinet at the forward end separating the dinette from the galley.

The lower helm station is located forward starboard. Traditionally the helm seat on these boats has been a free-standing over-sized director's chair. This boat has a new custom adjustable helm seat. When a fixed helm seat has been installed by owners of other Camanos in the past it made access to the electrical panel very difficult. This new chair moves fore and aft on a stainless steel hinge that allows easy access to the panel and still allows the engine hatch to be opened. Another strength of the new seat is its ability to store all the way forward on the starboard side leaving space for more chairs around the dinette.

Moving forward into the galley you'll find a Force 10 propane range with the tuck-under oven door. The Nova Kool refrigerator is in the usual place and the storage space in the galley has been increased to the full depth of the console. A microwave is installed on the port forward side.

Both the galley and head faucets are up grade models. The head is a Vacuflush system. The head has a large access panel to the back of the helm station.

Moving into the forward stateroom you'll see built-in shelves on both sides of the berth.

Cabin heat is from a Wallas diesel-fired forced air heat system and also from a Dickson Bus Heater running from engine hot water.

The Seaward hot water tank is 110 Volt and is connected to the engine cooling system.

3 burner gas cooker/stove

Electric Lofrans 1000 - 12V windlass (with remote control)
1 anchors
(Bruce -- 33 lb)
76.20m of chain
Starting at the bow, there is the anchor windlass with foredeck controls and remote from both the lower helm and the flybridge. The in-deck saltwater wash down is to port and the bow rail makes anchoring easy. The over-sized Lewmar hatch makes it easy to access the foredeck from the forward cabin. There are two Lewmar opening portlights in the forward stateroom, plus two more in the head and galley.

Moving aft on either side is easy with the grab rails on both sides of the flybridge.

Stepping into the cockpit is also easy with the molded in steps on both sides. There is another saltwater wash down located on the port side of the cockpit plus the cockpit shower.

Inset into the cockpit coaming are two fender storage areas plus an additional inset on the starboard side for miscellaneous storage. There are two 12 volt outlets in the cockpit for future installation of down riggers or a pot puller.

The large centerline transom cut out with door makes for easy access to the swim platform. On the port side of the swim platform is a SS Weaver foot-operated hydraulic dinghy hoist with quick-release brackets. There is no dinghy included but the equipment is ready for its addition. The swim platform has been strengthened to accommodate a heavy dinghy.

Moving from the cockpit to the bridge is made easier by the addition of a step attached to the propane locker. Just to starboard at the top of the ladder is a a custom PYI mast system for radar, VHF, GPS, satellite radio and cell phone booster antennas .The mast also has a deck flood light.

As you step on the bridge you will notice that there is no accumulated water at the low spot in outboard edge of the bridgedeck -- a common issue with other Camanos. An additional drain has been added to the flybridge cowling to solve this water problem.

The bridgedeck has three standard helm chairs and a bimini top.

Electronics are great but a good compass is still the best navigation tool! This boat has two over-sized Ritchie models.
