• 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.

  • 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.

1977 Ocean Alexander 40 foot Tri-cabin Trawler
complete with boat house.
$50,000 USD
Ocean Alexander 40 foot Tri-cabin Trawler is perfect for 2 couples
sharing or a live aboard for two. Designed for coastal cruising, this
Flybridge Trawler combines a wonderful presentation on the water with
a practical forward and aft stateroom configuration, each with their
own head. Built on a displacement hull with a full keel, the layout of
the Ocean Alexander 40 results in a notably spacious salon. The galley
and all amenities are located starboard side in the salon with tile
serving counters by the new propane stove and full size refrigerator.
There is a new microwave above the stove, along with generous
storage cabinets above and below the counters. The Master stateroom
has a walk around Queen berth, full hanging closets both sides and a
spacious head with tub and shower. The guest accommodations
feature twin berths with a centre insert to make into a double. She
also features a lower helm station located forward to starboard in the
salon for pleasant cruising even on inclement days. The engine room
access hatch is located beneath the salon floor. With a single 120 Ford
Lehman diesel she cruises efficiently at 7 knots, burning a skimpy 1.3
gallons of diesel per hour. Easy maneuvering with the recent addition
of a 24V bow thruster.
4 Runners (boat name) is boat house kept and is moored at Blaine
Harbor Marina, Washington State. Boat House features cement docks,

Keith an I forgot to mention, we have a recent survey, June 2017. This is available upon request. Boat and boat shed are located in Blaine Washington
 
One of the bits of lore that I have never been able to confirm, until now, was the story that C&L Yachts, a Taiwan builder with a good reputation, had Alexander C... running the place, until he moved to Ocean, which became Ocean Alexander Yachts, and continued making a good quality trawler. Those pictures confirm the lineage.
One small point in the description, definitely a Semi-Displacement boat.
 
Nice looking 1977 OA. Monk Sr. design?
 
Nice looking 1977 OA. Monk Sr. design?

Ocean Alexanders were designed by Monk Jr. until very recently. The lines of this boat reflect a family resemblance.

What a gorgeous boat! Good luck with the sale.
 
right boat ...... wrong coast

Ship it UPS or FedX 2 day air to the the east coast?
Put stamps on it and mail it via USPS?
Professional hauling overland to the east coast?
Load it on a ship and bring it over to the east coast?
A trip of a life time and bring it over on its bottom?
