- 2005 Great Harbour N37
We attended the Great Harbour Trawler Association (GHTA) annual meeting in New Bern, NC this past week. There were eight boats in attendance this year, six of them N37 models. I photographed the departure of MAGGIE this morning and realized afterwards that not only did I capture three different N37 versions, but also a bit of production history for the most popular Great Harbour Trawler model produced.
MAGGIE is Hull #1 in the N37 series. She is the original Semper Fi showcased in the June 2002 PassageMaker magazine article. She has cruised to Cuba and Bermuda while a demo boat for Mirage Mfg.
Our boat Semper Fi was Semper Fi II in the Mirage lineup. She is Hull #6 in the series and was used as a dealer demo and company charter boat. She is also the second Great Harbor Trawler to have a factory fly bridge installed. Our fly bridge is the final configuration for the fly bridges installed on all subsequent N37, N47 and GH47 models. Hull #4 of the N37 series was the first Great Harbour Trawler to have the optional fly bridge installed and it was configured a bit differently than follow-on versions.
JADIP (Just Another Day In Paradise) was the second to last N37 built, Hull #21. She was ordered without a fly bridge and her original owner had an aftermarket fly bridge installed after the boat was delivered.
