Hi, I just joined Trawler Forum because I am interested in buying a used trawler and thought I could get valuable information from the members on any trawler that I might be interested in

Welcome and there is a LOT of information here.

Welcome. Now tell us what kind of anchors you like. And will you be getting a FD hull or SD?

Welcome to TF. Even though I'm not a trawler driver these guys are nice enough to let me hang around and pick up tidbits of knowledge from the vast resources here.

Don't forget to include the windshield. Forward slanted or aft slanted. Very important in any boat selection process

In the meanwhile, welcome to perhaps in a very bias way, the best damn forum for boating. You will be a well informed boater reading of the multitude of excellent information. All kidding aside.
