  • 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.

Introduction
The boat is in Little Rock, Arkansas. I brought her here up the rivers last year — total trip about 2000 miles from Tampa. Maybe she's not a traditional style of trawler, sort of a fast trawler, but we have always treated her as such. We've done a significant part of the Gulf and inland river parts of the Great Loop. We intended to go on and do the rest, but we aren't in that part of our lives yet.

She acts much newer than a 30 year old boat and is in great condition overall. She’s turnkey as she sits, definitely no big ongoing projects or anything significant to take her onward.

The bottom was redone in May 2019 with a hybrid Petit Paint. The fiberglass is in 7/10 condition, some light oxidation. Exterior wood is 8/10 condition.

The engines were totally replaced in 2004 (twin Cat 3126 turbo diesels, they have about 2100hrs on them) and the generator has less than 800hrs. The port transmission was acting up last year and it’s now been 100% rebuilt: essentially a brand new transmission. The starboard transmission is flawless.*

The interior is nice and clean. All teakwood throughout. No significant water damage or soft spots. Three cabins. Sleeps six easily, and could take two more on the couches. Two heads (both with showers): the aft shower has been completely redone with tile.

Newer SIMRAD electronics all integrated together with hydraulic autopilot, etc. All those are from a 2014-2015 partial refit. She was used as an extended cruiser, off grid of long periods of time. There’s a high-volume water maker to attest for this.

The boat’s most recent inspection was 2017 (if you’re interested I can provide that) and passed with flying colours. I can provide all that inspection report as well as any squawks that were corrected. I corrected everything, I left no stone unturned.

The worst thing that has annoyed me is that when previous upgrades were made over the years, often the old wiring was left in place. So I’ve tried every chance I get to pull old stuff out, but there’s still some details to do. None of that is visible, though. The aft cockpit wood floor is a bit soft, but that’s just something I haven’t dealt with yet.

My wife and I lived aboard off and on for the past couple of years, so it’s plenty of room even for a good little floating apartment/getaway. And also I’ve installed lots of little amenities like a garbage disposal and dishwasher. There’s even a washer/dryer on board.

The reason for selling is that life has us going in different directions from where we were when we bought her. Really regrettable, because I love this boat. It is a spectacular space. But we’re in a different season of life right now so rather than having the boat sit and wither, she needs to go onward with someone else.*

Speaking of which, whoever takes her onward, I can offer to split the cost of delivery to inland rivers or Gulf Coast within a reasonable distance. (Unless you want to do it yourself, of course.) See delivery details at the end of this listing for more information.

Certified Captain Delivery: :)
The boat is located in Little Rock, Arkansas. That’s a bit up rivers, I admit. With purchase, I’m willing to pay the captained delivery cost within 500 mile radius of Little Rock. That’s up to Chicago on the Mississippi, Houston to Panama City on the Gulf Coast, and inland nearly anywhere on the Tennessee River up to Knoxville or the Tenn-Tom. [Of course, a few disclaimers: delivery ONLY after completed purchase and transfer of ownership. Delivery on its own bottom (i.e., not trucked delivery). Fuel costs NOT included, but will include the first full tank (500 gallons). Marina costs along the route included. Repair costs during the journey NOT included: the yacht will be your property and will be on you to cover. Insurance for the journey NOT included: again, the yacht will be your property at the time of delivery and will be your responsibility (however, I can advise insurance plans).]

Price reduction on the Jeff 52...

Seller here.

Because I've learned so much on here over the years from you guys, I'm going to announce the price reduction here first.

Off broker, the boat is at:
$91,000

I must sell. Make an offer.

Thanks,
-Noah D.
 
After 3 months on the market, this Jefferson is still for sale.

Off broker the boat is now listed at $75,000.

Unfortunately at this price, I cannot offer the captained delivery as I did in the original ad. Boat was recently cleaned up for spring, so it's ready to see.

Any offers considered. Quick sale important.
