• Trawler Forum Classified Posting Guidelines
    • We expect ads placed to be related to the topic of this forum.
    • Ads that are inactive for 180 days or longer may be moved to the Classified Archive and locked. Ads may be relisted if the item is still current. Alternatively, owners may contact a Moderator to reinstate an archived ad.
    • The Classified section is for advertising, members are asked to refrain from posting discussions to a Classified Ad. Please start a discussion thread or PM the owner for discussions.
    • Do not hijack another member's ad by posting unsolicited commentary. Example: if a member has posted an ad offering an anchor for sale, don't add a post to his thread stating that you have an anchor you'd like to get rid of also. Posts deemed as unsolicited commentary may be removed.
    • For your own security, do NOT include your e-mail or phone number in your ad. Instead request that interested parties contact you via PM (private message) to provide owners contact info.
    • Brokers, Dealers, or those with a commercial interest in a sale are prohibited from posting in Classifieds.
    • Only Trawler Forum Commercial Members may post ads in the Commercial section. You must be a designated Commercial Member to start threads in this section of the forum. (Contact a moderator if you have questions about this)
    • Don't post links to commercial sites where you are also offering the boat, such as eBay, Craigslist or Yachtworld, etc. unless it contains a more in-depth description, additional information or pictures.
    • Place only one ad per item (you may repost only when your ad has expired and been removed).
    For Sale ads MUST include:
    • Asking price
    • Location
    • A Basic Description
    • Clear statement whether you are the owner or non-owner (posting for friend, relative, or acquaintance)
    • Don't forget to select: FOR SALE, WANTED or FREE in the Title block.
    All ads should also include ALL the following:
    • Pertinent maintenance and condition information
    • Exterior picture or pictures
    • Interior picture or pictures (boats)
    For maximum impact & exposure, it is suggested the Ad Title include: Year, Manufacturer, Model, Length, Price, and Location or at the very top of the ad body. When your item has sold or the ad is no longer relevant: Please post a Reply to the ad that the item is SOLD or click "Report Post" on post 1 of the thread to ask a moderator to archive the ad. Ads may be moved or removed by our staff at any time for any reason. All ads must comply with site rules. Thanks for your cooperation.
  • Avoid Scams.

    Our classifieds are free and anyone registered here is welcome to post an ad.
    Be aware that there are unscrupulous folks out there. Avoid any interaction that seems odd to you or �feels� wrong. Inquiries from unknown buyers, buyers �agents� and other non-traditional approaches should be treated with extreme caution.

    Beware of unsolicited contacts offering to put you in touch with someone else who is buying or selling via e-mail or text.

    Do not post your e-mail address or phone number in a classifieds ad.

    Hints that you may be dealing with a Scammer:
    • Seller or Buyer approaches you via a direct email or PM and then steers you to an off-site communication method (text or email).
    • No posts or very few forum posts.
    • Recent forum membership
    • Insists on conducting negotiations via email or text rather than PM
    • Requires payment via Bank Transfer, BitCoin/CryptoCurrency, WesternUnion or other unsecured method.
    • Buyer or Seller suggests Paypal "Friends and Family" payment. Paypal is a good way to arrange payment but an invoice for goods and services should be used rather than "Friends and Family". "Friends and Family" avoids fees BUT there is no recourse if the transaction runs aground. Friends and Family is for gifts only. There is no protection for Friends and Family transactions, so never ever use it to buy something.
    • Declines to allow viewing the item before proceeding with the transaction.

We have owned Tao Yami since 2009. Our family has lived aboard Tao
Yami for as long as six weeks at a time while we cruised the New York
and Canadian canal systems, Lake Ontario, the 1000 Islands, the St
Lawrence River and Lake Champlain. The boat has kept us safe and
comfortable at all times.

Ten years ago, before we bought her, Tao Yami suffered an electrical fire
in her engine room. The prior owner replaced the damaged wiring and
hoses and secured insurance coverage to put her back into service.
Some evidence of the fire still exists in the engine room. None of which
creates a structural or systemic deficiency. It is unsightly, however. It’s
one of the items on my list that keeps getting put off in favor of more
important projects

One of the casualties of the fire was the loss of much of the air
conditioning system. We removed what wasn’t damaged since we had
no need for air conditioning in our cruising area. Essential elements
necessary for air conditioning are still in place. The raw water strainer
and seacock, water distribution manifold and the electrical system with
it’s own 30amp service are available should the new owner wish to reinstall
Air Conditioning.

Over the years of our ownership we have;
Replaced all helm gauges (upper and lower) with new Faria instruments
Replaced the flybridge bimini
Rebuilt the Maxwell Nillson windlass.
Refurbished all thru hull seacocks.
Replaced the forward head sink with a custom Corian sliding sink
Replaced the forward head toilet. Replaced sink faucet.
Added a solar vent to the forward cabin hatch
Added four new Caframo Sirocco fans.
Replaced the galley sink faucet. Refurbished galley sink cabinet.
Installed all new sanitary lines and vents and a new holding tank.
Replaced aft head toilet. Refurbished aft head sink cabinet.
Refurbished the Swim platform.
Refurbished the salon starboard door.
Refurbished engine room hatch covers
Replaced nav lights with LEDs
Installed an NMEA 0183 depth transducer and display for lower helm.
Replaced all cutlass bearings
Installed Shark line cutters.

It was hoped to take Tao Yami south this fall. In anticipation of that
move, the entire 12v battery system was replaced and upgraded in the
spring of 2016. Six new 6 volt batteries comprise a 645amp hour house
bank. Three new group 31 dual purpose batteries start the two engines
and the generator. All batteries are linked via two Blue Seas Automatic
Charge Regulators. Engine start battery switches were installed. All
cables were fused as required. A watering system was installed on the
house bank. A custom battery box and cover was built. Everything was
done in accordance with ABYC standards. The schematic used was
drawn for Tao Yami by an ABYC certified electrician who monitored the
installation.
Family considerations have changed our plans and we have reluctantly
placed Tao Yami for sale.
She is a good boat…

A survey was just completed. More attention was paid to Tao Yami’s
warts and not nearly enough to her great bones. It does describe a solid
hull and good performing systems and engines. (I would say ‘excellent’,
but surveyors don’t use words like that.)
