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).
- 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.

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.

Very Nice, What speed is she best suited to travel and what is top end etc. I am curious and shoping for a personal liveaboard with a targeted home port of Port Aransas, Texas.
There are a number of "live-aboard" Seleners on the Selene website. These vessels are designed for offshore, long-distance cruising, but are very comfortably set-up and equipped for living aboard. We lived on Auriga for several months while cruising. The blog below provides full boat details and info on our Bahamas cruise.

"Wing Engine: Yanmar 4JH3E / 56HP (32hrs) driving Yanmar SD50 Saildrive (10hrs)"
Can I ask why the engine and the saildrive would have such differing hours? Is this just saying that the engine has been started and run for 22 hours longer than actually engaged pushing the boat?

The original Yanmar Saildrive SD30 was replaced with a new Yanmar SD50 (0 hours) in 2006. The Yanmar 56HP engine is from 2000. We typically only run this back-up system a few hours each year. It starts first push every time!! We do not run the engine without the drive engaged once the engine has started.

Really nice vessel, the woodwork in the interior is amazing.
Hi Larry:
Thanks for the photos. Yes, we have not spent as much time on her this year as previous. Hope you had a good time with Mike Fasci in his Boston Office.
The swim platform was something they did on the earlier Selenes but have discontinued. They now have a solid section with storage built-in. We like the hinged platform. When you do not need it, it is out of the way. The boat length is less for dockage and security is better at anchorage. Also, in a following sea, waves can not lift under the transom platform. All the best.

Thanks I didn't scroll down far enough. thought that was just a desc. of the name. One question am I to understand the master does not have a walk around bed as I am used to in a 47 Selene?
