47' Custom Raised Pilothouse Trawler - “Mischief” - Designed and Constructed in 2009 by Hugh Huff – Midland, Ontario. Mischief is a rare, purpose-built 47' custom raised pilothouse trawler designed and conceived as a Northern Alaska-style displacement cruiser; she reflects a philosophy of integrity, efficiency, and serious passage-making capability. Built with a focus on strength, safety, and serviceability. She is not a production vessel — she is a thoughtfully executed custom built for an experienced cruising owner who valued reliability, comfort, and long-range autonomy.

Mischief embodies traditional displacement trawler principles:

True displacement hull for efficient, economical cruising, Raised pilothouse configuration with excellent sight-lines, Wide, protected side decks for safe line handling. Solid, conservative engineering throughout. Engineered specifically for the demanding waters of the Great Lakes, the Great Loop, and extended coastal cruising, “Mischief” combines robust construction with refined craftsmanship and intelligent systems design. For Cruising Capability the burn rate is 3 gal per hour at about 8-10 Knots. The owner has experienced 14 Knots with the same burn rate on an outgoing tide and wind. Also, the boat recently received NMSI accreditation that allows it to be tracked anywhere in the world.

Interior Accommodations

Spacious salon with abundant natural light comfortable seating and table and chairs

Thoughtfully arranged galley for live-aboard functionality and clever storage areas

Owner-operators seeking independence and reliability. Her displacement design provides exceptional fuel economy at cruising speeds, predictable handling, and steady offshore manners. Mischief originally from Ontario Canada, has traveled through the Great Lakes, including Lake Huron, the St. Clair River, Lake Erie, through the Welland Canal, Lake Ontario, the Thousand Islands and up the St Lawrence River. She then traveled down the Richelieu River to Lake Champlain and then the Hudson River and around Cape May. Her Southern trip travels the Delaware River through Chesapeake Bay to Norfolk, then travels the ICW and Pamlico Sound to her current location in a fresh water basin South of Wilmington, NC.
