• 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.

  • 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.

FOR SALE $4500: Lease-rights to a 40' x 14' upwind double-finger slip in Pier 39, San Francisco. Lease expires 2034 and carries monthly maintenance fees of under $400/mo (for comparison, So Beach Harbor is $687/mo for single-finger 42'; SF Marina is $725/mo for 40' - both have 4+ year waiting lists). It's available now, and is a good hedge against slip fee increases; and you can always re-sell the slip.

Pier 39 Policies HERE including liveaboard, showers, laundry, parking, etc.

Slip E16 is considered one of the best slip locations in Pier 39 because its an upwind slip, its close to land but still has plenty of maneuvering room, and is on the opposite side of Pier 39 from the sea lions and ferry docks which reduces surge.

Pier 39 is an incredible location - a car is truly not needed:
Over 100 shops and restaurants within 10-min walk

Short walk to>
  • BART station
  • South of Market/Giants Stadium
  • Ferry Building/Farmers Market
  • 30-min Uber to SFO or OAK
  • Central Bay access for boating.
PM me with questions!

Wish it was a 45. I’m currently in Brisbane.
 
Friend of mine had a boat there until recently- Antares

You may want to look into a 45-foot slip there (standard rental or purchase a lease such as the one I'm selling), though be aware of the surge. We lived in South-of-Market, so right in the City. We avoided Pier 39 for years thinking it was just a tourist trap. We bought the slip thinking we'd cruise our boat and always have a place to keep it when we returned to SF, and could rent the slip in the interim. Slip has been more or less cash-neutral as it rents pretty easily and pays for itself.

We ended up enjoying the Pier 39 area despite the tourist shops. Mixed in are a bunch of nice bar/restaurants with respectable happy hours. We were pleasantly surprised. I guess we were a bit snobby about SF tourist spots.

We had friends who kept a sailboat there. Amazing location, interesting mix of boats.
