Description
"The 41 is a big, beamy, muscular vessel—that was my first impression upon getting close to her. Her faux-carvel-planked bow seemed enormous and lofty, mostly due to a one-piece deck molding that adds to both gunwale height and stem-to-stern stature. Wide chine flats swept back from a straight, slightly raked stem, promising the sort of transverse stability that typfies the coastal-cruising hulls of Lynn Senour." ~ Power and Motoryacht Review of the American Tug 41

Vessel Details
American Tug 41
Scaliwag is a semi-displacement trawler with single Cummins QSC 8.3 liter 540 hp power plant. This motor yacht is marketed as a trawler but, with its hull form and a higher horsepower diesel it steps up beyond trawler speeds to achieve v-hull performance.
"The American Tug 41 shares many of the hull characteristics of the very successful 34-foot design. The 41 is a semi-displacement boat, with hard chines, a deep keel, full skeg, and larger rudder. The stem is just slightly raked, and a gracefully progressive sheer unites a high, flared bow with a relatively blunt transom. It's a chop-busting concept that works particularly well in the Pacific NW, and also performed well when a fleet of 34-footers voyaged down the west coast and up the east coast of the United States. The same hull could be rigged for commercial fishing, and it would look perfectly natural in
such an application. The prominent trunk cabin, tall and reverse-raked pilothouse, square but attractive aft cabin, and extended boat deck suggest the American Tug 41 is destined for coastal cruising duties. The false stack styling element turns this pilothouse trawler into a "tug".
American Tugs appeal to seasoned and experienced boaters with an appreciation for traditional standards as well as a desire to own a boat that takes full advantage of the latest advances in technology. American Tugs are all single engine designs, with a standard 8HP bow thruster and optional stern thrusters to improve close quarter maneuverability. American Tugs still feature exquisitely crafted, hand selected teak interiors but there isn't a square inch of high maintenance exterior brightwork to be found. Decks are non-skid FRP, deck and side rails are solidly affixed 316 stainless-steel, and all
door and window frames are powder coated aluminum. A periodic washdown and a minimum amount of waxing and polishing should keep an American Tug in bristol condition. Boat shoppers hoping to spend more time maintaining a boat than enjoying it will need to select something else." ~ https://rec.boats.narkive.com/Y6tSxbnd/american-tug-41
Construction
Hull:
The American Tug 41 is constructed with hand-laid, hand-rolled rove and resin laminate hulls. The bottoms are solid fiberglass reinforced plastic (FRP), with coring used above the waterline for additional strength, insulation, and sound attenuation. The molded frames and stringers are constructed as a single, unified matrix and then glassed into the hull to ensure maximum strength, structural integrity, and a perfect fit.
