Last Dance

Trawlers Last Dance

Last Dance is a classic Monk 36 trawler, hull number 164, and was previously named Eight Bells and Refuge. The Monk 36 is one of the most respected and popular semi-displacement trawlers ever built, known for its solid construction, practical layout, and excellent performance on the water. Designed with long-range cruising in mind, it’s a favorite among Great Loop cruisers and coastal voyagers alike.

Last Dance is a veteran of the Bahamas and has served her current owners well for the past five years, proving herself to be a comfortable, capable, and trustworthy cruising vessel. She is powered by a single Cummins turbo diesel engine, offering dependable and fuel-efficient performance, and is equipped with a Phasor generator driven by a Kubota engine for reliable onboard power. The semi-displacement hull delivers a comfortable, stable ride and efficient handling at moderate speeds.

Accommodations include two private cabins—one forward with a V-berth and one aft with an island double berth—along with two heads, each with a shower. Inside and outside steering stations make her suitable for all-weather navigation, while the open salon and galley provide a bright and functional living space.

With her proven design, strong mechanical foundation, and cruising history, Last Dance is an excellent opportunity for anyone looking for a dependable liveaboard or Great Loop-ready trawler.
