• Trawler Forum Classified Posting Guidelines

    • 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.

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.

Hello, Keith!

Everything with a boat will be included. You can see the boat anytime, it is in Boston Bay Marina in Boston.
Call me 617 429-1139 and we can meet and see the boat. I did buy it 2 years ago and did not use and not familiar with it.

Best Regards
Diomid

Hello!

All info I have - is in the add. Anybody can come in and take a look and see anything. The boat only have 350 hours - almost new, in great condition, new navigation system.
 
I guess it would help to post some picture of your boat so everybody can see it.

Warning to sellers: Scams abound especially from offshore buyers who cannot personally close a deal.

I'm in the banking business and see this scam frequently.
Buyer pays with a cashier's check made out for a round number.
Say the boat is 30000, but the check is for 36,000.
Buyer says "oops my secretary screwed up"
and
Just deposit the check and wire me the difference, less 1,000 for your trouble.
So the buyer is getting a 1,000 bonus right?
Check gets deposited, wire is sent.
And it's an official bank check, good as gold right?

Wrong. The check is a fraud. The seller is out 5,000. The buyer vaporizes.
One of several variations on the same scam.
 
Sounds completely legit to me. I mean, who wouldn't want to buy a 21 year old Carver quickly, site unseen, from the other side of the globe off of TF?

Exactly... and from Dubai... shipping costs alone would exceed the purchase price.
 
OK, let's not get carried away here with the comments. :) I agree that it seems a bit strange, but none of you (nor me) have any idea of what might be going on insofar as buying a boat from Dubai, so please do not jump to conclusions. I will share this -- Aegeancat is where he says he is, so it is NOT something coming from Nigeria. (We check those things in situations like this.) You have warned the OP, and that should be sufficient. Just let him proceed however he sees fit. OK???
 
All is well. If someone from Dubai wants to buy an old boat and ship it wherever they desire for more than the vessel is worth, indeed that is their business. Was just sharing my real life experiences and hoping to keep a fellow boater from feeling the sting of a deal gone bad. Sometimes if things don't make sense they are OK. But most often, somebody gets hurt.
 
Of course this proposal may be 100% legit. Another form of scam in a long distance "purchase" is the buyer sends freight cost to the seller to pay the freight to someone he nominates. If the seller pays out the freight, and payment from buyer to seller later fails, the seller is out of pocket. There could be many variations.
