    • 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.

  • 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 recently purchased a 2009 34' Mainship Trawler. The original owner purchased her in 2012. We are looking to sell the original leather couch with a pull out bed (excellent/like new condition) and replace with another set of chairs.
I will attempt to upload a photo in case anyone is interested. Not sure how much these go for, any offers will be considered. The boat is located in Dunedin Florida.
Thank you,

Dimensions: 32" deep, 6'-3" long, 37-1/2" height, and 59" open

Here's a link to what we did similar to where you are headed.
We sold our sofa here in the Classifieds - I'll bet you get some offers

Only regret is we didn't do it sooner

Bacchus - Projects Pg 4 See Furniture Upgrade
 
Bacchus,

Great minds think alike. Someone is interested in our sofa/sleeper (member of this forum). I thought that it was worth a lot more, but after seeing what you sold yours for we decided to do the same.
We were thinking of getting two recliners with built in foot rests (wall huggers) so that we do not need to have the separate foot stools. But most are very bulky with a large footprint.
I will share your pictures with the admiral. We wanted to get the same color as yours too.
I'm curious on what you have on the starboard side of the salon? We were hoping to find recliners that can lay completely flat in case I need to sleep in the salon on some nights.
 
Stressless with one foot stool to share. Wear like iron, sized for comfort and very comfortable. They take up very little floor space in comparison. Down side, pricy. The cost per day of use is cheaper considering their longevity due to quality of design and material.
 
One of the things we liked about the ones we bought was the size... pretty compact.
I kind of like the separate stool as it lets you position it for your height. Some of the built in ones seem too short for me and aren't comfortable. We usually share one foot stool.
Stbd side is one of the MS ratan chairs and a pedestal helm chair as we are a hardtop w only lower helm. It can be lowered and swung around easily to give us 4 comfy chairs when we have company. More than 4 we need to break out the stool or bring in one of the aft deck chairs.
We have some Stressless at home... and they are the best... the ones we have on the boat are close seconds. The color is an excellent match to our vinyl wall & headliner.
We were very pleased w the communication & delivery ordering online.
We added the optional risers which raise the chair around 1-1/2" which made them much easier in & out. I'd recommend them if anywhere from 5'6" (my wife) or taller. ..I'm 6'0"

Let me know if any questiona

Thank you Bacchus, your information on the chairs were very helpful. I've been researching your very informative website. Especially the "BOM photos" This will save me many hours trying to find Manufacturer/Model numbers.

That was a very recent addition...glad it's working. Previously I tried to look them up and reply to inquiries when i could. It really is too bad Marlow took down the MS info... maybe if a bunch of MS owners contacted them they'd reconsider. There were BOMs for other models / yrs available as well as many more photos of parts / vendors info... some electrical schematics, etc
 
Great idea, I t would not be that difficult for Marlow to put the info back up.
 
Agreed on the BOM pics. Even though I have a 400 a lot of the parts are the same. Helped me find a fridge vent and the windshield wipers that I have been looking for.

My sincere thanks for that post.
