• Trawler Forum Classified Posting Guidelines

    • 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:

    • 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:

  • 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.

I purchased this 30 kg Bruce type anchor for my boat. My bow sprit is too small for the shackle to pass through.

I paid $200, will sell for same.

PM me if you are interested.

I would also consider a trade for a Danforth type anchor in the 40-70 pound range.
 
Is it made by stainless steel?

Here is a of pictures of the anchor. It is heavy duty galvanized steel construction. The previous owner, who I know used it for many years in some demanding situations. The only markings on it are "SL Claw 30 Kg".

Sure let me know what you have and lets talk
 
I have a big Danforth in Tulalip......it is a least 40 lbs that I am willing
to trade. On our boat here in Anacortes we have 20KG Bruce that is
just too small for our Bayliner. The winds whip us off the setting too
much. Our 40ft. boat is 15ft. tall and the winds blow us off. We'll be
heading back tomorrow to Tulalip and I will let you know exactly how big
the Danforth is.
Thanks for responding....

Danforth Anchor

papa charlie,

The Danforth is 50 lbs. The height is about 40 inches. there is a little bit
of rust on the points of the flukes, but the galvanize otherwise appears
to be good. I've taken pictures of it on my smart phone, but I can't upload
them to the internet right now.
if you could give me your internet address I think I could email them to you.

Regards
Dave

I am in the process of buying a boat with a Danforth, I think its 50 pounds. I will let you know in about 2 weeks if you still have yours. The Danforth is not large enough for the new boat.
 
Yes, it is still available. Congrats on the new boat. Let me know when you wish to talk.
 
How about you go with a slimmed down anchor swivel and you get to keep a good anchor?

I have tried that, but even the slimmest of swivels still is too wide for the setup on my boat. I would have to change out the SS guide and roller assembly to use it and that means gouging out my bow sprit.
 
Ok gotcha, good luck with your sale.


Although that has cross my mind. But I have too many other projects I wish to complete first. If I still have the anchor when some of those are complete, I may do the mod to the pulpit and keep the anchor. After all that is the reason I purchased it in the first place.
 
anchor dimensions

Could you please tell me the overall length of the anchor and the width of the shank where the swivel would attach? Is the price still $200?
 
I will get the dimensions for you. Sorry for the delay in responding. Been having trouble with the internet.

Terry,
Sorry for the delay. The overall length is 32.25" and the width at the shank is 1". Price is still $200.
