    • 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)

  • 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.

Looks great krogenken,
So many trawlermen are so concerned w seaworthyness and fuel burn that you should have lots of interest. The Krogen is an excellent example of a genuine full disp trawler and there are so few. I personally like the stern of the Keogen even better than the Willard. A perfect trawler stern to be sure.

In Florida? You're going to take a break or otherwise make a change I suppose. Hope it's for the best and that you stay around on TF.
 
We will be downsizing to a 26-28 footer. We bought the 42 to liveaboard now and cruise in 4-5 yrs after I retired. My little condition will just change how we boat. The 42 is now the " right" boat at the wrong time. She has been extensively cruised in the past as SABO. We want to see her cruise again, not sit at our dock. Krogens do have lovely lines!

Krogenken,
It's amazing how similar the Krogen 42 is to the Willard 40. I remember the write-up about the two boats in Voyaging Under Power. As I recall the Krogen was more efficient than the Willard but both being true full disp boats and extremely seaworthy they should be very desirable not only to the passage making skipper but anyone wanting a bigger more efficient boat. Very good blog Ken thanks.
 
Thanks, Eric. The admiral worked very hard on that. The two boats are similar, there are just a lot more Krogens out on the waters of the world.
 
Update- All exterior brightwork ( handrails, caprails, pilothouse doors, etc) have received 3 or more coats of varnish. BEAR is really looking good!
 
If I may make a suggestion on your blog/photos, for those of us just now thinking (learning) about getting into trawlers and not knowing the layout of the KK it would be nice to know the layout, particularly whether the Master SR is forward or aft. It looks forward but I'm not certain.

The boat (and your blog) look very nice BTW.
 
Thank you for the suggestion. Often times what is obvious to oneself, is not obvious to others.

KrogenKen,
The Bear is looking good. The 42 is my favorite.My wife has a thang for the 42 also.I would sell the house for one of these and after a few rum drinks she would also.

krogenken: Are you done with boats? Will you become Kittiwake Ken, Catamaran Ken or Key West Ken now? Congrats on your sale.

Thanks Ken! I wish you nothing but the best going forward!
 
Thank you Daddyo! Healhustler, no we're not done with boats. The addiction is too strong!
Probably get a pontoon or deckboat as we are right on the river. Eventually, we plan to get an Acadia 25 and trailer around.
I might have to be pontoonken, but it just doesn't have the right ring......
Ken
 
Congratulations! What was her final selling price?
