    • 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

  • 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.

For Sale: #7 Super Sarca anchor. 55 lbs. one year old.

Located in Clear Lake Texas $400.00 plus actual shipping cost.

Link to manufacture's detail of the anchor. Super SARCA Anchor No 7 - Galvanised Anchors - anchorright.com.au

We have sold our trawler and the new owner (an older gentlemen) does not believe in new generation anchors and will be bringing his own anchor to Walkabout so we negotiated the deal less anchor, therefore it is for sale.

The anchor is in excellent condition but it has been wet before and may have scratches due to normal use.
 
New owner must be a man after FF's heart. :D

Sorry, that was naughty, but couldn't resist. Dying to know what this magnificent anchor the elderly gentleman is bring over with him is. Please advise when you know.

On the upside, if any of you in the area near Ready2Go are thinking of a new anchor and have a boat 40' to 50', I'd suggest you grab it asap...

Declaration of bias - I own a #6 Super Sarca, and wouldn't use any other...and if I was buying another boat, and it was the correct size for it, I'b be taking my anchor out of the deal. :thumb:

Are you retiring from boating or changing ships??
 
Maybe the new owner is upsizing....

Less chance of it but would be more interesting if he was downsizing.

Still think that SARCA would be the best anchor if only one was onboard. Haven't thought of any mods for it though.

How do you think it will fit in an enclosed anchor roller platform? The price sounds about right.
Thanks,
Fred
 
There is/was oval shaped rings that can be lowered down the rode and with repositioning of the boat pull the andhor up by the fluke end of the shank. Probably quite inexpensive.
 
READY2GO,
Are you bailing or shopping?

He has a 66 lb Lewmar claw (Bruce Knock off).:eek::)

Not retiring, just down sizing. Sold the "big" boat and looking at a 28 and 29 footer, also buying a motorhome and will split our time between the two.

FredB.
Not sure. Below is a pic of how it sits on our anchor roller.

He's losing a Super Sarca to make way for a Claw/Bruce knock-off.

Marin, where are you..?
 
Ready2Go,How was your experience with the Super Sarca?
 
We better remember this is a for sale thread guys, so not to move it too far away from its intent. I have mentally smacked my own hand here as well...

I am very pleased with it. If it was the right size for my next boat you would have to pry it from my cold dead fingers, but it looks like the next boat will be a 28 footer with no windless.

I have only had it drag once and I can't really blame the anchor for that. I was in a very tight anchorage with literally 2:1 scope in soupy mud and the wind picked up to over 30. That is expecting alot from an anchor. We pulled it up and dropped our FX37 and set up the rest of the night, then left at first light.

We have used the Sarca many times in sand, mud, and soupy mud. It does well even in the soup with enough scope.
 
READY,
I just bought a capstan at a very attractive price from Endurance of Surrey BC. Same basically as my old capstan but MUCH improved. No lack of power w a planetary reduction and 1.5hp.15lbs.

Perhaps I should test it before I recommend it. Later

Way to go Eric. Pity Ready2Go's anchor is a weeee bit big for your ship, or here would be a chance to nab one.

Back on topic...No 7 (55lb) Super Sarca for sale...see above..!
 
Price reduced to $399.99.
