• 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.

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.

PACIFIC TRAWLER 40
​
It’s time for SPIRIT BEAR to move to her next caretaker. She is a single-stateroom version of the 40’ Pacific Trawler. This option, along with her full-beam salon layout opens up the salon to allow not only excellent salon living, but a large and completely equipped galley as well. She is outfitted for both Pacific Northwest cruising (including diesel heat) AND cruising in more temperate climates. She is equipped for underway operation in stocking feet from the warm, dry pilothouse, a covered cockpit to shield you from the sun and rain, and a bimini and cushions for the flying bridge when it’s toasty and sunny. She has screens on all windows, and air conditioning when the temperature and/or bugs drive you indoors!

Powered by a single mechanically-controlled John Deere diesel engine, she achieves her nominal 8.5-knot cruising speed at 1400 RPM on 3.7 gallons per hour, including generator time. Fully self-contained, SPIRIT BEAR is an Alaskan and British Columbia vet, having easily circumnavigated Vancouver Island, and poked through much of the northern coast of BC and Southeast Alaska. Her storage capacity, 6KW auxiliary generator, diesel heat, range (almost 1000 nm at 8 kts), watermaker, and general amenities make her an ideal couple’s boat with occasional guests. With a large rudder and a powerful bow thruster, close-quarter maneuvering is easily accomplished.

She is stored in covered moorage in Everett, WA, and includes a folding mast and boom to reduce her air draft and provide dinghy launch from the boat deck. Once launched, the boat deck provides a terrific summertime lounge area. In addition, her staple-equipped open cockpit allows easy dinghy entry and exit, and single-level access to the entire boat. Rigorously maintained by her owner, SPIRIT BEAR is turn-key ready. Load your stores and clothes, and push off!

She is listed with Waterline Boats in Seattle (https://waterlineboats.com/), where her full specifications, asking price of $219,000, and numerous photographs can be found. Please contact Gretchen Miles at (425-231-0344) or gretchen@waterlineboats.com.
 
Greetings,
Mr. jp. Best of luck with your sale. Two items: On the opening page of your link the only Pacific 40 PH is marked "sold" although inside the site it is listed as being for sale. Might want to have that changed.
Although not interested due to location, I don't frequent any sites that require me to sign in, in order to review pictures but that's just me.
 
So, this boat will not be available on Yachtworld? That really reduces the marketing envelope.
 
As others have mentioned, I don't sign up to view boats for sale.

Ted
 
If you use the link above to go to the listing you can read the text. It does sound like a really well outfitted boat.
 
At least one contributor is looking for a boat but hates "sign up for a look" sites. Maybe the OP could direct the broker to advertise elsewhere as well. Collecting inquirer info is to benefit the site and/or broker, not the seller.
 
I 2nd, 3rd, or 5th the "I don't register to look at boats for sale" sentiment. If I find one I'm really interested in, I have no problem signing up, but for first looks, no way. A site that requires me to register just to look at some pictures is a "No sale" in my mind. I get enough spam already.

Sellers should keep this in mind.

This is the same reason that when I am first looking to buy a car and haven't narrowed down the choices, I only go to the car dealerships when they are closed.

I think you should consider donating your boat so it could be where Spirit Bears actually live. We would be honoured to caretake it for you, and use it often to search the shores of Princess Royal Island and Douglas Channel so it could be with it’s namesake :D
 
Sheesh, let the guy sell his boat. Tough crowd. Good luck JungPeter.
 
Hmmm... she checks a lot of our boxes and we may have to go see her. The open transom is a design that gives me pause, particularly in a following sea.
Anyone have experience with that design? How about Pacific Trawlers, any conventional wisdom or experience?
 
A very nice boat for the price. She will sell quickly.
