• 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.

Hi Tom, I sent my contact info in a private message a couple of days ago. Did you receive it?
If you are in the Juneau/Douglass area, you may know the boat. She was "WandererIV", owned by Richard Rountree.

I saw this boat in Sitka last summer. It's very clean and in nice shape. It's obvious Dave has taken good care of her.

Thanks Ken, we love her, but need more room for our grandchildren. They have taken an unanticipated interest in vessel operation, and maintenance....We thought they were only interested in video games....who knew???

Wonderful development!!!:thumb::thumb: You should be so grateful, so many young are not only uninterested in life outside of video games, and eating.:eek: No exercise or outdoor activity interest, and if there is it is so scheduled by adults as to be more a military schedule of unending sports filling what should be natural interest:mad: Good On You for jumping on the chance to share with your Grands.:flowers:

Thanks Al. The enthusiasm continues. Our oldest, Lucas accompanied us on the mechanical survey, and sea trial on what may be our next boat.
***************************************************************
We have a recent survey for Helen Marie, which is available to share with serious shoppers. There is also available an Alaska Audit, and Cruising Report made by Kevin, and Laura of Slow Boat. This is dated April 15, 2018, and details Helen Marie's suitability for another Alaska trip which we just recently completed arriving back in Anacortes on September 5. An amazing trouble free voyage.

My favourite time of year. Frosty mornings, crisp air, leaves turning, low soft light as the sun sinks lower in the sky, and we saw 15 Humpback Whales 4nm from the marina a couple weekends ago.
 
was up in Anacortes during the Union Lake boat show and wish I would have had a chance to see Helen Marie in person since I have been in the market for a 44-49 I have not been on a 34 it sure looks like a great boat. I am planning another trip up soon and will contact you before hand.

Thanks

Dave, Are you heading for Sitka this summer?

Hi Ken, yes indeed. We plan to depart Anacortes in early May. We have family activities in July, so we need to arrive late June (Sitka).
New boat this time, but we think we will be ready. We are in SOCAL until March first, and then we will slowly drive north.
It looks likely that Helen Marie will end up in Bellingham.

Sold!
I believe the boat will remain in the PNW, and the name will not change?
