Remarks :
The Tyler 31 is a classic offshore cruiser designed by E.G. van de Stadt and built by the respected Tyler Boat Co. Known for its solid fibreglass hull, fin keel, and masthead sloop rig, the Tyler 31 offers excellent stability and performance for coastal and bluewater sailing. With traditional lines and a reputation for seaworthiness, it’s a favourite among sailors seeking a dependable and characterful yacht, well-suited for sailing on the West Coast of Scotland.
Braveheart is available for sale with Euroyachts. This 1981 Tyler 31 is powered by a Volvo Penta diesel engine and features a practical interior with a convertible V-berth, galley, and updated headlining. Well-maintained and ready for adventure, she’s ideal for weekend cruising or longer passages. Visit us in Largs to step aboard and see her for yourself.
Accommodation :
Forward cabin with wood slats on sides of the hull, a V berth with infill converting it to a double berth, shelving, under-bunk storage and opening overhead hatch. A door leads through to passageway with the heads compartment to port and shelved and hanging storage opposite to starboard. Door leading through to the saloon with bench settees to port and starboard with storage behind and a removable dining table with drop leaves. This table can be stored along the starboard settee front. The port settee front can be slid up and hinges out to give larger berth space. Two pilot berths above and outboard of the settees. The galley is to starboard. The full size sliding chart table is over the quarter-berth to port with instrument readouts to hand. Engine access is under the companionway steps.
