About Us
Hi! We're Pat and Joan, thanks so much for taking the time to check out our boat!
We're experienced sailors and cruisers who have extensive experience boating across the Gulf and East Coast! We've recently settled in the inner banks of North Carolina and are looking to downsize to a smaller vessel.
Lodestar has been a labor of love for us, and we're thrilled you're interested in learning more. A lot of work has gone into this boat and we'd be happy to tell you more about it.
Please see additional details about Lodestar below!

CHARTED HISTORY
Legacy & Build
There's a reason Ed Monk-designed trawlers have earned a devoted following among serious cruisers — timeless lines, a seakindly semi-displacement hull, and the kind of solid bluewater pedigree that inspires confidence mile after mile.
Why Lodestar Stands Out
This isn't a trawler that needs a refit list, it's one where the big-ticket items are already done:
-
New fuel tanks — twin 230-gallon diesel tanks, brand new
-
Decks rebuilt right — teak removed, replaced with marine ply and West System epoxy for a modern, low-maintenance, leak-resistant deck
-
New Phasor generator — only 17 hours on it
-
New washer/dryer, water heater, and Blue Seas breaker panels
-
All lighting converted to LED, interior and exterior
-
New bottom paint and anodes
Add in the highly desirable twin Ford Lehman 120 diesels, running great, backed by dual Racor filters per engine and a fuel polishing system, and you've got a trawler that's ready to cast off.
Built for Living Aboard, Built for Cruising
Lodestar's raised pilothouse layout gives you two comfortable cabins, two heads with electric toilets, a dedicated shower, and even a pilothouse berth for standing watches or easy singlehanding. The galley is set up for real cooking underway with a 3-burner propane stove, microwave convection oven, 12-volt fridge, and a pass-through window and screen to the side deck for effortless grilling and entertaining.
With 250 gallons of fresh water and 460 gallons of diesel between her two new tanks, Lodestar is ready for extended trips away from the dock — and her 50' shore power cord with Smart Plugs, isolation transformer, and Magnum inverter/charger mean she's just as comfortable plugged in at the marina.
