M/Y Margaritaville is a meticulously maintained 2018 Great Harbour TT35 that has spent its life exclusively in freshwater. Designed specifically for America’s Great Loop, this highly sought-after trailer able trawler combines the comfort of a luxury floating condo with exceptional fuel economy, shallow-water capability, and remarkably low operating costs.

Powered by twin 60 HP Suzuki Lean Burn high-thrust outboards with only 201 engine hours, Margaritaville is a truly turnkey vessel that has benefited from extensive upgrades and preventative maintenance between 2023 and 2026. The current owner has invested over $30,000 in equipment, upgrades, spare parts, and accessories, making this one of the most comprehensively equipped TT35s available. This sale is cash or financing only. No trades will be considered.

Margaritaville offers a rare combination of features seldom found together in a vessel under $300,000. Highlights include approximately 201 engine hours, freshwater ownership since new, professional maintenance and spring reconditioning, readiness for extended cruising or America’s Great Loop, and delivery within the continental United States with a full-price offer.

The Great Harbour TT35 was engineered specifically for long-distance cruising while minimizing ownership costs. Unlike traditional trawlers, the TT35 delivers exceptional fuel efficiency, an extremely shallow draft for exploring remote waterways, easy docking and close-quarters maneuvering, a trailer able design for overland transport, reduced maintenance costs, lower insurance costs compared to many larger cruisers, easy beaching capability, and comfortable liveaboard accommodations. Its lightweight composite construction and wave-piercing hull create an ideal balance of stability, efficiency, and cruising comfort.

Margaritaville comfortably sleeps six people inside the vessel, including a private queen master stateroom and a convertible salon dining table for additional sleeping accommodations. During cooler weather, the covered cockpit can comfortably accommodate two additional overnight guests, allowing accommodations for up to eight. The interior is designed with true residential comfort rather than the confined layout commonly found on many pocket cruisers. Whether used for weekends or months-long adventures, the TT35 provides the comfort of a waterfront condominium with the freedom to cruise wherever the journey leads.

Margaritaville is powered by twin 60 HP Suzuki High-Thrust Lean Burn four-stroke outboards, delivering exceptional reliability, low operating costs, and outstanding fuel efficiency. With approximately 201 engine hours, the propulsion system has seen very light use and has been consistently maintained. The vessel has undergone routine maintenance every spring, with documented servicing and system inspections from 2023 through 2026.

The vessel is equipped with a premium Garmin navigation package designed for extended coastal and inland cruising. The joystick docking system provides exceptional close-quarters maneuverability, allowing precise handling in marinas, locks, and tight docking situations.

The Great Harbour TT35 is known for its practical deck layout and durable composite construction. The vessel’s shallow 18-inch draft allows access to anchorages and cruising destinations that are inaccessible to many traditional trawlers. The galley offers the conveniences of home while remaining efficient for extended cruising. The galley is thoughtfully designed for long-distance cruising and comfortable liveaboard use.

Margaritaville has been upgraded with numerous amenities that make life aboard exceptionally comfortable. Whether cruising for a weekend or living aboard for months, the vessel is equipped to provide true residential comfort. One of Margaritaville’s greatest strengths is its ability to cruise comfortably away from marinas. These systems allow for extended anchoring with minimal dependence on shore power.

The current owner has invested more than $30,000 in upgrades, equipment, maintenance, and spare parts. The vessel has also received annual detailing, compounding, polishing, and complete system inspections each year from 2023 through 2026, helping preserve its excellent cosmetic and mechanical condition.

Margaritaville is more than a yacht—it is a turnkey cruising lifestyle. Whether your goal is completing the Great American Loop, exploring coastal waters, enjoying weekends at the lake, or living aboard full-time, this TT35 offers an unmatched combination of comfort, efficiency, and versatility. Unlike many vessels in its class, Margaritaville is fully equipped and ready for immediate adventure.

Margaritaville has been operated exclusively in freshwater, spending time on Lake Conroe, Texas and Lake Ouachita, Arkansas. Freshwater ownership offers several long-term advantages, including reduced corrosion and marine growth, lower maintenance costs, less wear on engines and mechanical systems, excellent cosmetic preservation, and strong resale appeal. The vessel has also been professionally maintained, detailed, compounded, and polished annually, with documented maintenance records available.

The Great Harbour TT35 was engineered to reduce the overall cost of ownership while maximizing cruising enjoyment. It offers exceptional fuel economy, lightweight composite construction, an unsinkable hull design, an extremely shallow 18-inch draft, trailer able design for overland transport, easy beaching capability, and lower insurance, transportation, docking, and maintenance costs than many traditional cruisers. Twin outboards positioned wide apart provide outstanding low-speed handling, and the joystick docking system makes docking remarkably easy.

While Margaritaville has been privately owned, its layout and condition make it an attractive candidate for future charter use were permitted by applicable laws, regulations, insurance requirements, and local operating rules. Prospective buyers interested in generating supplemental income are encouraged to evaluate charter opportunities independently.

The Great Harbour TT35 has earned a reputation for comfortable liveaboard accommodations, innovative composite construction, outstanding fuel efficiency, shallow-water capability, easy transportability, simple maintenance, and exceptional owner support. Designed specifically for extended cruising, the TT35 offers spacious living areas rarely found in trailer able cruisers while remaining easy to own and operate.

Opportunities to purchase a freshwater Great Harbour TT35 in this level of condition are exceptionally rare. With approximately 201 engine hours, more than $30,000 invested in recent upgrades and equipment, premium electronics, off-grid capability, extensive spare parts, and true turnkey readiness, Margaritaville represents an outstanding value for buyers seeking a vessel capable of comfortable weekend cruising, full-time liveaboard life, or completing the Great American Loop. If you are looking for a yacht that combines residential comfort, exceptional efficiency, shallow-water capability, and remarkably low operating costs, Margaritaville is ready for her next adventure.

Freshwater yachts generally command a 5% to 15% higher market value than identical models used exclusively in saltwater. Official valuation guides like J.D. Power (formerly NADA) baseline values presume average wear, meaning an explicit 10% downward adjustment is commonly applied by marine surveyors for saltwater-exposed vessels due to accelerated corrosion risks.

Saltwater yacht ownership costs are generally 20% to 30% higher than freshwater yachts due to harsh salt-induced corrosion and marine growth. While freshwater yachts maintain higher resale values, saltwater vessels require more frequent maintenance, specialized engine cooling systems, and higher insurance premiums. Best in class for cost of maintenance, transportation, mooring, and insurance when compared to traditional power cruisers of similar size, the TT35 also excels in docking and maneuvers in tight spaces. Powered by twin outboards placed far apart, it offers incredibly close-quarters control, allowing the boat to rotate within its own length.

The TT35 expands cruising horizons without cramping style. Leading-edge composite materials make it light and strong while an easily driven hull form provides an excellent combination of speed and efficiency. Inside, you will find adult-sized living spaces and home-like amenities rather than the tight quarters common to many pocket cruisers. Couples can enjoy a true queen island berth in a private stateroom, a full-featured galley, and a spacious head.

The salon provides additional guest accommodations, and the covered cockpit can be fitted with a full weather enclosure if desired. Incredibly shallow draft enables access to cruising destinations not possible in other boats, and the TT35 can be ramp-launched, land-stored, and transported. This boat has been kept in a freshwater, covered slip for the past three years and has fewer than 200 hours on the engines.

8. Why Yachting beats Sailing Experience!! "Yachting (specifically motor yachting) beats traditional sailing when you prioritize predictable speed, expansive luxury, and zero physical effort. While a sailboat relies on the unpredictable wind and requires hands-on physical work, a yacht uses powerful engines to deliver fast, comfortable, and effortless travel on the water. Comfort and Space More room: Yachts have wide hulls that create massive indoor lounges, large cabins, and multi-level decks. High-end amenities: You get air conditioning, full-size bathrooms, and gourmet kitchens instead of cramped, spartan quarters. Stability: Larger hulls and mechanical stabilization mean less rocking and a smoother ride for guests prone to seasickness.
9. Speed and Convenience Fast travel: Yachts cruise at high speeds, meaning you can visit multiple destinations in a single day rather than spending hours crawling at 5 or 6 knots. Reliable schedules: Twin diesel engines provide exact arrival times that do not depend on changing weather or dying winds. Easy docking: Tight harbors and marina spaces are simple to navigate with mechanical thrusters and predictable engine power. Relaxation vs. Work Total ease: Yachting lets you act as a relaxed passenger while a professional crew handles navigation, cooking, and anchoring. No heavy labor: You avoid pulling heavy ropes, adjusting sails, or balancing on a tilted deck during sudden wind shifts."
10. "Google AI Report: July 17, 2026 - 9:31 AM - A 2018 Great Harbour TT35 is actively listed in Conroe, Texas. It has 190 to 200 engine hours, twin Suzuki outboards, and joystick control. Pricing ranges from approximately $275,000 to $425,000 depending on the listing."
11. Freshwater yachts generally command a 5% to 15% higher market value than identical models used exclusively in saltwater. Official valuation guides like J.D. Power (Formerly NADA) baseline values presume average wear, meaning an explicit 10% downward adjustment is commonly applied by Marine Surveyors for saltwater-exposed vessels due to accelerated corrosion!
12. Twin outboard motors provide built-in safety redundancy if one fails, superior low-speed handling and close-quarters maneuverability via counterrotation and independent thrust, faster acceleration out of the hole for heavy loads, and better bite in rough offshore sea conditions compared to single outboard or inboard setups. Twin outboard engines offer superior safety redundancy, exceptional low-speed maneuverability via differential thrust, and a quicker hole shot (acceleration) compared to a single inboard engine.
13. Safety and Redundancy. Get home safe: If one engine quits miles offshore, the second motor lets you limp back to port instead of calling for an expensive tow. Peace of mind: Most offshore anglers consider twin setups essential when venturing far beyond sight of land.
14. Maneuverability and Control Tight space handling: Independent forward and reverse gears let you spin the boat on its axis. Easy docking: Counter-rotating props cancel out the paddle-wheel effect, making tight slips and windy docks far less stressful. Joystick compatibility: Dual outboards easily integrate with advanced joystick piloting systems for effortless maneuvering.
15. Performance and PowerBetter hole shot: Two smaller props provide more initial blade surface area to get heavy boats onto a plane quicker. Rough water grip: Dual lower units spaced apart track straighter and maintain a better bite when crossing choppy wakes or rough waves.
16. Compared to Inboards Transom space: Outboards free up the entire interior hull where an inboard engine box would normally sit. Service access: Tilting an outboard out of the water makes checking lower units, props, and anodes far simpler than crawling into a tight inboard bilge. Watch this detailed breakdown to see how twin outboards compare directly against single engine performance on the water:

18. Unsinkable Design Mechanics Composite Cored Topsides: The superstructure and topsides use buoyant core materials (like Nida-Core) above the rub rail. Solid Fiberglass Bottom: Heavy laminate below the rub rail provides impact resistance and structural protection during a grounding. Twin Outboard Setup: Powered by twin outboards for mechanical redundancy and shallow-water operation.

The TT 35 will expand your cruising horizons without cramping your style. Leading-edge composite materials make it light and strong while an easily driven hull form provides an unprecedented combination of speed and efficiency. Inside, you will find adult-sized living spaces and home-like amenities rather than RV accessories and tight quarters common to “pocket cruisers.” Couples can enjoy a true queen island berth in a private stateroom, a full-featured galley and a spacious head. The salon provides additional guest accommodations, and the covered cockpit can be fitted with a full weather enclosure if desired. Incredibly shallow draft enables access to cruising destinations not possible in other boats and the TT35 can be ramp-launched, land-stored and transported. Perhaps most notable is her extreme efficiency: nearly 6 MPG at displacement speeds, 3 MPG at low planning speeds. This boat has been kept in a fresh water, covered slip for the past 3 years and has less than 200 hours on the engines.
The Great Harbour TT35 packs all the amenities of a comfortable live aboard trawler into a highly versatile, trailer able boat with endless possibilities. The TT35 features a center queen berth, head with separate shower and a fully equipped galley. Powered by ultra-efficient twin Suzuki outboards, she can take you wherever you want to go.
The TT 35 is custom built for the "The Great American Loop" with SUPERIOR Economics and LOWEST maintenance cost in the industry!! Period!! A Luxury Floating Condo that you can move with the seasons!! Priced under 300K with Style that last all day and night!! The indoor lighting and outdoor lighting that keeps the vibes going!
Off-Grid Power. It features an RV-style air conditioner, a folding half transom for easy swimming, and large roof space for solar panels and toys. This means you do not need complex plumbing or a heavy generator for comfortable cruising.
