Classic Cruisers Club: Elliot Schoenfeld and Jennifer Johnson

After traveling to South America for a year, and then a five-month lockdown in India during Covid, high school sweethearts Jennifer Johnson and Elliot Schoenfeld managing busy careers returned to the United States, bought a boat, and began an adventure on America’s Great Loop.

Eye of the Beholder

What exactly defines a trawler? For many, the definition begins and ends with a full-displacement hull, a sizable fuel capacity and something that grants stability and the range to go well beyond the bar.

Sound & Color

The Beneteau Swift Trawler 48 is a refined coastal cruiser, and more.

The Year in Photos

Peruse this exclusive photo diary as we celebrate another year spent documenting the great life afloat.

A side three-quarter view of a large, rugged expedition trawler named "PAUL JOHANSEN" cruising through calm open water. The vessel features a dark blue hull creating a white wake at the bow, paired with a cream-colored superstructure and a high pilothouse. A tall central mast holds multiple radar domes and communication antennas, while the upper deck carries a white tender and a bright yellow kayak. An American flag flies from the stern under a grey, overcast sky.

Straight Life

Once a rescue craft, this Norway-built steel trawler is the ticket to ride for a venturesome crew.
