• 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.

We have all heard it………
The two happiest days in a boater’s life is the day you buy the boat, and the day you sell the boat.
Well……….maybe for some. But for me that statement is totally and undeniably FALSE!!!!!

2 ½ years ago my wife and I moved on board Toad Hall, our 40 foot Bluewater trawler. At that time, we put our beloved Ranger 25 classic up for sale.

We turned down three very acceptable offers. Why?? Well, we said it was because “next summer we would do the Columbia River, then the Sacramento River Delta, Then….then……..we would put her somewhere along the Great Loop and do the trip in stages as time permits…..Yeah!!! That’s why we still have her!

Or it could be...... that I would rather sell my kid than sell this boat.

Time hasn’t, and probably won’t in the foreseeable future, permit any of those trips. And Poco Allegro needs to get off her trailer and be used and loved.

Its time.

It will not be a happy day.

Poco is a 2009 R-25 classic
Yanmar 150 hp engine with 700 hours.
Garmin 5212 GPS, Depth, Radar.
Raymarine Auto pilot.
EZ Loader trailer.
Bow and Stern Thrusters.
Wallas diesel stove/heater.
Currently in Sequim, WA

Asking Price is $85,000. Will consider part trade for aircraft or outboard boat.

Don’t be shy about making an offer. Its time to let go.

She has been out of the water for 2 1/2 years. Condition is age appropriate.

Consider checking her out and making a "I don't have to do anything offer"

Kid is also for sale. No money down, take over student loan payments. Sold as is.
