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.

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.

Hello John,
I'm in the process of listing her, but here is an older listing that details 10 Knots. I need to sell, so any offers are appreciated.
Thanks!

I did send him and e-mail John. I'm not quite a Trawler guy yet. I have a Mainship 40SB that I am selling or I should say hoping to sell in this market. I has everything most LRC's have but it burrns the wrong fuel and too much of it.
I have decided it is time to change to a Trawler style boat with diesel power due to the economy and I find my wife and I run at hull speed more than on plane.
We are really hooked on the 34 Californian.
So. we are not in a hurry but looking for the right one. I do realize because we are looking for a 1979-1983 the boat will more than likely need considerable work.
Unfortunately we repowered and refit our current boat in 2007 so we will take a huge loss on the sale but it is time for change.
We boat in the Little Egg NJ area and our 93 Mainship's name is Wireless One.

Bill, It sounds like your boat is ready to go and equipped to your tastes.
How much do you really burn at trawler speed- 7knots?
If you lose a ton of cash selling your*boat seems it might be better to just cruise it.
The fuel difference would take a long time to make up the loss in changing boats.
My 2cents

I burn about 10gph at 7 knots.
I am interested in downsizing to save dock costs and winterizing fees.
I also can't do the Erie Canal with my custom hardtop the boats too tall.
These are just a few reasons why I want to eventually change.
The only thing I am missing from most LRC's is a washer/dryer combination.

Bill,* Spring is right around the corner. Are you willing to "give your boat away" at a real economy price and move on?
Have you considered E-Bay with a low reserve?
Tough pill to swallow, but will things ever get better to the point of you breaking even?

I agree John, I will have to leave the Vetus bow thruster in but I can reduce it's battery bank size. Other than that the Syrens high power WiFi unit, AT&T Ericsson W35 and possibly the PuraSan with the Hold-N-Treat can come out. I even have a 1 year old VacuFlush system I could put back in and keep my Marine Elegance head.
Even with all this stuff removed she would be at the top of the list of any 1993-99 Mainship 40SB I have seen on Yacht World other than 1 other diesel model that has a hardtop and new diesels but the asking price is more than double what I would ask.
Every through-hull, hose, DC breaker panels, AC breaker panel, chargers and valve has been replaced on this boat. She has new water tanks and a new upgraded 36 gallon holding tank all are Poly. The bridge seating and dash was all re-fitted in 2008 and is custom. The hot water heater was upgraded to an 11 gallon Atwood all the sink fixtures were replaced, all navigation lights are the highest quality Perko LED, she has 4 blue under water transom LED lights, all interior lighting is modern LED even the arch/spreader lights are high intensity LED. She also has a new Good windlass that is top of the line rope/chain with foot pedal and dash mounted controls.
It is a one of a kind. I have receipts in 2007 totaling more than 170k not including what I paid for her in 2004-05. Probably close to $45k in electronics upgrades last year.

Bill,* I don't recall you saying what your plans were for this boat.
You must really like her if you put all that into her.
If the loop is a possibility, and your air draft excludes the Erie,* The ICW to Fla and the Bahamas is a good alternative.
If you ran her 1000hrs at 10gal/hr at $4.= $40k.
If you ran a Cali at 3.5gal/hr at $3.85=$13.5K.
Only 26.5k for taking a loss and starting all over, sounds like it is cheaper to keep her!

It appears that way John, however I can't add diesel fired heat with a gas boat, or safetly change to Propane frig or stove, again it's still a gas boat, I want to downsize for many reasons some include slip costs and yearly homeport fees. There isn't much logic to it John but the boat will never in the near future be worth more than it is right now. I don't see the boating industry coming back anytime soon.
The boat is excess to my needs.
