• 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. When your item has sold or the ad is no longer relevant: Please post a Reply to the ad that the item is SOLD or click "Report Post" on post 1 of the thread to ask a moderator to archive the ad. 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.

Destiny is regrettably up for sale. We've had 7 great years with her, now it's time to find her a good new home.
At the time of writing, we are still cruising (currently in Sicily). Destiny, has all of the equipment and plenty of spares and has been well cared for over the years. She's also uniquely Tax paid and imported into the EU.
For all of the info check out Destiny Website – Diary or Contact us direct at lesbirds@msn dot com.

Welcome!

Quite a boat and you have had some interesting journeys. Hope you get a quick sale.
 
Very ineresting!

A few questions

1. Has there been a recent bottom job?
2. What is your asking price and in what currency?
3. What is the country of registry?

Thanks
 
Beware the seller who afraid to publicly post his prices or vessel details.
 
Sometimes there are reasons why the price is not published, notably exchange rates and their fluctuations and also we have in some areas employed a broker who have an 'influence' on the price. However, just for you, we are asking €295,000, which is about $320,000 and something different in pounds, roubles and yen.
Would you like to make an offer? Preferable above the figure I have just quoted.:)
 
Good Luck with the sale. A fine little ship there. I think it would be gone if it were stateside. A great boat at a great price!!!!

Beautiful vessel. What is her range?

We carry 1200 Gals of fuel, we consume typically 1.5 - 1.8 Gals/hr at 7 knots so 1200/1.6 x 7 gives 5000+ NM of range. Conservatively, with generator use and a safety margin call it 4000+ NM range.
She is transatlantic capable and has proven it by previously crossing the Indian ocean.

For us, for normal cruising, we top up to about 2/3 tanks and that generally gives us fuel for 2 seasons.

West Coast US is, I'd guess, only one fill up away and she's half full now :)

As I've mentioned above, She can be shipped or you could enjoy a season in the Mediterranean before driving home.

:) Think its a bit more than 4,000 miles. Would love to make the trip. Where exactly are you located? What kind of power does she have anyway?

We are currently in Sicily and on our way to haul out in Malta at the end of the month, for the winter. It's a good place for maintenance and its English speaking.

Engine power is a John Deere 125 TD (4 cyl). I assume you are talking about the boat not my wife:)

Your wife????....does she also need to be hauled out to have her bottom painted?....:D

I like your vessels lines she looks like a very seaworthy design. I certainly cant say that for most of the vessels out there many of which appear to me to always be ready to roll over or sink
 
Not in the market for another boat, yours is very nice though. Did enjoy your website diary. Looks like you enjoyed a number of years cruising on a great boat. Thanks for sharing your travels!
