Projects: Mainship 35 Trawler, Mainship 35 Pilot

Mainship will introduce two brand new 35 footer in both Trawler and Pilot models in replacement to the 34 feet series. The US builder declares that customer feedback has been the idea about the complete redesign of there medium size offer. Thanks to this the new 35 Trawler will have a second stateroom, and a galley up design. Entering the 35 Trawler salon, many enhancements will be very evident. First, the fully-outfitted galley is located in the aft port corner of the salon. This location results from the new raised dinette area just forward, which provides stand-up headroom in the guest stateroom below. The galley, which features a 2 burner electric stove, microwave, refrigerator freezer and Corian counter tops, features an expansive window view as well. Forward, the raised dinette has a wonderful view. A sofa with optional sleeper or lounge chairs completes the salon aft to starboard, and the lower helm lies just forward of this area. The companionway leads below to the new portside guest stateroom. This cabin features walk-in headroom at the foot of the berth and hanging locker area. In addition, the pillow end of the bed sports two and a half feet of headroom. This layout will work well for couples, families or charter boat companies as the second stateroom provides not only extra accommodations, but excellent additional storage area. Cruising range from Mainship has not been communicated, altough Mainship says that as all its Trawler line will be outstanding also for the new 35. Power options include a vee drive single Yanmar 380hp diesel or a single gas engine.
Building on the success of its tried and test 34 Pilot design, Mainship enhances the livability and functionality of the design with key improvements and introduces the new 35 Pilot. Again both customer and dealer feedback played a big part in the development of the new model, so the 35 Pilot draws from the popular earlier model by utilizing the same 34 hull, but with a new deck and interior layout. The salon area will feature UltraLeather seating with two opposing settees, and the cherry plank flooring provides a durable, beautiful sole. The forward berth area has now been transformed to a full stateroom with sliding pocket doors for privacy. The owner cabin has been upgraded to a queen as opposed to the prior smaller V-berth, and there is generous storage space in two cedar-lined hanging lockers and center line berth drawers. Both areas are well-lit and ventilated by the opening screened port lights. The new 35 Pilot will also have a second cabin with an athwart ships double berth. Most notably, this guest stateroom features full walk-in headroom at the entry and a hanging locker area. As with all Mainship yachts, storage is plentiful in this cabin and the hanging locker is cedar-lined. To starboard, the new 35 Pilot features a larger head. In this area, the space has been increased to incorporate a shower compartment enclosed by hinged plexiglass walls. Mainship’s sundeck galley became a hallmark of the Pilot line with last year’s introduction of the 31 Pilot, and the new 35 makes use of this alfresco layout as well. Located on the starboard side of the helm deck, the sundeck galley is fully equipped, sporting a two burner electric stove, microwave oven, refrigerator freezer, stainless steel sink, and extra storage under the Corian countertop. Portside helm deck seating options include a dinette or an L-shaped lounge. Power options will include a vee drive single Yanmar 380hp diesel or a single gas engine.
