American Tug 395

From 2011

The American Tug 395 is a Lynn Senour-influenced raised-pilothouse semi-displacement cruiser built for efficient coastal passagemaking. It combines a single-diesel shaft layout, protected running gear, wide working decks and couple-oriented accommodations with substantially more beam and displacement than trailerable tug-style cruisers.

Best for

  • Couples planning extended coastal or Great Loop cruising
  • Owners prioritizing pilothouse visibility, tankage and robust deck access
  • Buyers comfortable with conventional yacht-scale storage and maintenance

Trade-offs

  • Beam and displacement require conventional marina, haul-out and storage infrastructure
  • Single engine provides no second-engine propulsion redundancy
  • More complex and costly to own than trailerable pocket cruisers

Known concerns

  • No model-specific concern has been promoted to B-Atlas’s evidence threshold. This does not mean the model has no age-, condition- or hull-specific risks.

Inspection focus

  • Confirm exact 34/365 naming and model year from HIN and factory records
  • Inspect engine, cooling, exhaust, shaft, rudder and full-length keel/running gear
  • Inspect pilothouse doors, windows, deck hardware and cored structures for leakage
  • Inspect fuel, water, waste, generator and electrical systems and verify tank condition

About this record

B-Atlas preserves uncertainty: missing information remains unknown rather than being treated as a negative. Specifications and guidance describe the model record; individual boats can differ by year, equipment, refit and condition.
