Sargo 31 Review (2021 Edition) by Aquaholic

On Deck

Around the deck, there are high bulwarks and waist-height rails that offer great protection. The flat deck that allows easy movement is highlighted along with extra seating areas at the front. The practical placement of the anchor and anchor chain locker are noted.

The wheelhouse and saloon areas are wonderfully flexible. There is a sliding roof section and doors that allow the area to be as open or closed as desired. The seating arrangements can be adjusted to accommodate more people facing forward during a cruise, enhancing the overall experience.  

The galley has a diesel-fired hob and combination microwave with ample storage areas, including a large storage locker under the floor. The roof has adjustability for ventilation and easy access to the pontoon from the helm.

On the lower decks, there is a forward cabin with v-berths that can be converted into a double bed. The en-suite arrangement is clever, as the door can be left open to make the area feel like a connected suite. There is an additional cabin as well, with a double bed and good headroom, which is considered to be a nice, tucked-away space.

The Sargo 31 has a Volvo Penta D6-400 engine. These can achieve a top speed in the mid-30s, with a cruising speed in the high 20s and a range of about 250 miles at fast planing speeds.

Nick concludes his tour by expressing his admiration for the Sargo 31's thoughtful design. He agrees with the manufacturer's description of it as an all-season boat, perfect for anyone who wants to enjoy the water at any time of year.
