Sold-1980 Albin 36 Trawler

We are selling our beloved 1980 36 ft Albin Trawler. We have been traveling the Florida coast for the past 6 months from St Augustine to the Keys to Tampa and back. Well over 1,000 miles and she has performed flawlessly. She is a head turner and people always compliment how much they like our boat. We just cruised the boat back to St Augustine from the Florida Keys. Our family of 4 ( 2 adults and 2 kids, ages 7 and 4) have lived aboard full time since July and have been very comfortable.

Our boat makes a great full time live aboard and cruising vessel with all the amenities one would look for in a vintage long range cruising trawler. She would be an excellent vessel for the great loop, the Bahamas, or to use as a second home. We purchased her for her reliability and economy. Vessel has a single 120 Ford Lehman with approximately 4900 hours. Engine sips diesel fuel at approximately 1.5 gallons per hour. If you want a simple engine that is reliable and will go for 15,000-20,000 hours, this is it. Generator is a 7.7 kw Westerbeke with approximately 4400 hours. This genset is as reliable as the Ford Lehman, and will run all systems on the boat when at anchor.

Teak deck and fuel tanks are in excellent condition. This was one of the main things we were concerned about when purchasing a vessel of this vintage and one of the main reasons we purchased this particular boat.

Too many upgrades and improvements to list, but I will do my best:

Ford Lehman 120 hp - approx. 4900 hrs.
Westerbeke 7.7 kw generator - approx. 4400 hrs.
Plenty of spare oil filters, fuel filters, belts and impellers.
Morse marine engine controls.
MarinAire 16,000 btu air conditioner - new 2014.
Garmin electronics (radar, gps, depth, sonar) - 1040xs upper helm, 741xs touch screen lower helm, Garmin 18HD radar - all new 2014.
Radar arch - replaced the traditional Albin mast.
1800 watt Xantrax pure sine wave invertor - good for high end electronics like computers.
Brand new house batteries. Main engine and generator starting battery within year old.
30 amp Charles C-Charger - EL Series.
2 Standard Horizon depth sounders - upper and lower helm.
Sitex SP-110 autopilot.
2 VHFs- upper and lower helm.
Fusion 2 zone RA70 stereo. Speakers on upper bridge and in salon can be controlled indepently through head unit or phone app. - all brand new.
Two extrerior LED lights over aft deck.
All interior lights are LED.
Magma Grill - Kettle 3 combination grill and stove, party size - with cover.
Lewmar Windlas - with 120 ft of chain and 180 ft of rode. Two anchors - Delta on the bow and second Danforth anchor. The delta never dragged one time in six months of cruising and anchoring out, great anchor!
Forward head with shower and Jabsco electric toilet.
19" LG TV in salon.
17" LG TV in aft master bedroom.
Redport WiFi amplifier with router - top of the line amplifier that can pick up WiFi up to 7 miles away.
HP inkjet printer.
Igloo ice maker.
Aft head with composting toilet - great option when the holding tank fills up!
Norcold refrigerator
Magic Chef 4 burner propane stove
Raw water pump.
6 gallon water heater.
Brand new Bimini that covers entire top deck - if you like hanging outside, this is a really nice feature.
Brand new furniture on top deck - two chairs and twin sofa- seats 8-10 with built in seating.
Salon dinette converts to double bed.
Aft bed is queen size and v berths are each twin size.
Boat will sleep up to 6 people comfortably.
4 - Caframo 2 speed 12 volt DC fans in bedrooms and 2 - high power 3 speed AC fans in salon.
Plenty of interior head room, I am 6'2" and have no problems.
Full set of kitchen utensils, pots, pans, Kuerig coffee maker, etc. - everything is less than 6 months old. We bought it all for the boat, so it stays with the boat. Just bring your clothes and toothbrush and you can cruise tomorrow!

Specs:
350 gallons diesel fuel
220 gallons fresh water
Aprox. 35 gallon holding tank with electric mascerator
LOA 36 ft
Beam 13.2 ft
Draft 3.5 ft
Height 17 ft

We are throwing in a lot of extras that will save you thousands if you are looking for a turn key boat that is actively being cruised. Not a dock queen, like many of the other vintage trawlers on the market. We looked for over 6 months to find this boat when we bought her. We are motivated to sell due to the fact that we are expecting baby number 3 in June and will not be able to continue cruising full time for a few years. $55,000 obo

WE ARE NOT INTERESTED IN LISTING OUR BOAT WITH A BROKER AND DO NOT NEED ANY HELP SELLING. ONLY CONTACT IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN PURCHASING THE BOAT. WE WILL ONLY DEAL WITH AN IN-PERSON BUYER; NO PAYPAL, WESTERN UNION, OR SCAMMERS. SEA TRIALS CAN BE ARRANGED WITH 10% DEPOSIT.

Boat was hauled in July 2017 and bottom was in great condition, no blisters. Bottom gets cleaned on monthly basis and diver said everything looks good when he dove 2 weeks ago.

Boat does not have thrusters, but maneuverability has never been an issue for me. Before we purchased boat I had concerns about single screw with no thrusters based on other peoples opinions, and looked into external thruster options. However I never followed through with it though after feeling it was unnecessary for this boat. Cruised it extensively in various conditions and visited many marinas and never once felt that I could not get the boat where I wanted because of not having thrusters.

Both fuel tanks are both in great condition. They are original but as I stated in the ad, this was my main concern when purchasing, based on other people opinions and experiences. But they were thoroughly inspected and there is no reason for concern on my part that . The deck does not leak and therefore that helps reduce concerns.

Thank you Greg, let me know if you need any other info.

Thanks,
Brad

Thank you! We wanted to come back to Yacht Harbor, but when we arrived back in November, there was no long term spaces available, so we ended up at Marnineland. Hope you all are well, Happy New Year!
