• 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.

5539 Californian
This an exceptional 55' Californian, featuring a spacious and comfortable design, offering three staterooms, three heads, modern galley, a spacious 7' cockpit, and a large Aft Deck. The golden teak interior is impecably kept, beautifully decorated and appointed with numerous amenities including washer and dryer. To top it off 3208 TA Caterpillar Diesels Starboard engine is new and port side rebuilt in 2019.



The 55’ Californian Cockpit MY is considered by most the best looking of this style vessel and this one is very special. Her rakish flush-deck profile adds to the well thought of design. The 55 remains one to the most sought after boats due to the high quality construction and excellent craftsmanship. Her three stateroom interior is tastefully furnished with teak cabinetry and woodwork throughout. A slide out settee in the guest stateroom aft of the salon converts into a double berth, and all three heads are fitted with separate shower stalls. The upscale interior is lavishly decorated with quality fabrics and furnishings throughout. The salon is will appointed and boasts a spacious layout. The aft deck is also very spacious as is the flybridge. Also featuring Air Conditioning, Bow Thrusters, Engine Synchronizers and Stabilizers. This 55 Californian is conveniently located on Shelter Island in San Diego, CA

I am asking $249,500.00. OBO.

This looks to be a beautiful boat. With its full equipment list and engine work it is priced well and should sell quickly! Best of luck.

She has just under ~95 hours on the Starboard Engine as she was replaced in 2019. and 1100 hours on the port but the port engine had heads pulled and heat exchangers replaced in 2019 as well. The last survey I had done was in 2020 for insurance underwriting and was an in water survey. She has a top speed of 17 knots and a cruising speed of 10-11 knots. She has 650gal on board in 2 SS tanks. She has all new canvas and Lexan XL10 replaced in 2020.
