    • 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.

  • 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.

Thanks Marlinmike! She is a great little trawler with a real history being hull #855.
 
i guess that's about as clean as they come!
 
I doubt you will find another 23 year old boat as nice as this one. Thanks for your comment!
 
I was just going to ask the age...might have missed it, but didn't see it on the listing. 1992?
 
Yes. 1992. I'll have to recheck my listing to make sure it's in there. Only reason I'm selling is to move up to a 40'-45' trawler.
 
Now I see it in the title on this thread. Guess I missed that, too! :banghead:

She's sure a beautiful boat! The 34 Californian LRC I own was designed to compete directly with the 32 GB. Layouts are somewhat similar but your joinery is much better than on the Californian.

A single Cummins on a 32 sounds rare. Is it?

Best of luck on the sale!

The two previous owners had kept the "sticker". It reflects a price of $284,500. That did not include electronics, HVAC system, generator, or bow thruster. Those were added later.
 
Not sure what that would be in today's dollars, but, it is way more than a 32' boat is worth. I'm guessing that if they were to build one today it would be in the $450-500K range which would put it out of reach for the average buyer.

Which is exactly why they took the GB36 out of production once and for all in the early 2000s. It simply cost too much to build than the market would bear for "just" a 36' boat, particularly when there were so many other boats in that size with much lower new-boat prices.
 
Marin is exactly right. The production costs, materials and labor, for a boat that size could not justify its selling price so production ceased in the early 90's. From the information I have, hull #855 (my boat) was the last 32 built at their Singapore facility before they moved to Malaysia. After which 6 more were built before production was halted and they focused on larger yachts.
 
MOTIVATED SELLER - I have lowered the price of Loon to $129,000. In addition, I have a very recent survey and an engine analysis of the main engine, transmission, and genset. While the price is higher than most GB32's on the market, this is very unique boat in absolute "turn key" condition and is ready to cruise. Please visit my web page Home
for much more information, photos, and video.
