What is Trawler?
the trawler is a fishing vessel that uses a trawl, a conical net that snares fish by being dragged through the water or along the bottom.
Trawlers vary according to the method of towing the net. On side trawlers, the trawl is set and hauled over the side with power winches or manually by a large crew.

Can you cross the ocean in a trawler?
Absolutely yes. And not just the mission-specific trawler yachts like Nordhavn and Selene.
What is the range of a trawler?
Usually, trawlers have a single engine, though twin-engine installations are also available from some builders.
They have a large fuel capacity. Fuel range is normally 1,500–3,000 miles on smaller vessels, even greater for those over 45 ft (14 m) in length.
How much fuel does a trawler use?
So the “true trawler” is a full displacement, single small engine driven boat that goes slow. One typically burns 1-3 gph.
