Description The Powerboat Guide touts the well-respected Monk 36 as a graceful aft-cabin trawler offering a mix of simplicity, comfort and seaworthiness. The Ed Monk designed semi displacement hull is powered by a single Perkins diesel rated at 135HP and giving her an 8 knot cruise with a fuel burn of roughly 3 gal an hour and a range of about 800 NM. The bow is tall, and there’s plenty of freeboard from stem to stern. There’s a flybridge helm station in addition to the lower helm in salon that gives good sightlines around the boat. Wide side decks and rails all around are a plus for safety, and there’s room for dingy storage on the aft cabin top. The aft cabin is the master stateroom, with it’s queen-size berth offset to starboard. That leaves room for a large hanging locker to port and drawers and storage lockers on the starboard side with adjacent head compartment. The second stateroom is forward with a large V-berth and enclosed head compartment. The main salon has a port settee and high-low table that converts to a double berth. Just aft is the L-shaped galley. Equipment includes a refrigerator/freezer, a four burner range/oven and a double stainless sink, as well as a microwave oven. The lower helm station is forward to starboard.
The vessel is well suited for long-distance cruising, offering a comfortable layout with two cabins, spacious salon, and fully equipped galley. The flybridge provides excellent visibility for navigation, while the aft deck offers ample space for relaxation and entertainment. With it’s efficient fuel consumption and sturdy build, the Monk 36 Trawler is a popular choice for long range cruising and a great fit for a Great Loop Adventure. Ed Monk is well known for his yacht designs, and his 36-foot trawler helped popularize the genre. More than 250 Monk 36s were built over a 25 year production run.
. It’s also good to know that there is a Monk 36 Owners Association where members share knowledge and information, as well as getting together for rendezvous...
