The Fisher 31 MS represents a refined evolution in the British motor sailer tradition, bridging the gap between the legendary Fisher 30 and the more expansive Fisher 34. Introduced in the early 1980s and designed by the esteemed naval architecture firm Wyatt & Freeman, the 31 was a departure from the earlier "fishing drifter" aesthetic of its predecessors. Built by Northshore Yachts in Itchenor, Sussex, the Fisher 31 was engineered to address the criticisms of the original Fisher 30—primarily its limited windward performance and heavy handling. By introducing a more modern underwater profile and increasing the waterline length, Northshore created a vessel that maintained the iconic "trawler" silhouette and high-volume pilothouse while offering significantly improved manners under sail.
