    • 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.

  • 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.

Contact via PM please if a serious buyer.


The Mainship 34T J-Bear is offered for sale by owner. This is a well-cared for Mainship and is a perfect cruising boat for the Loop. As we posted earlier here on the forum we were going to decide if we were going to keep this boat or leave boating entirely. My age, a health issue and our other projects dictate that now is the time. The boat is moored at the naval base in Key West and MUST BE REMOVED WHEN SOLD unless the buyer has military base access and can obtain a transit slip here. There are other mooring opportunities in Key West. We are available to assist in moving the boat to a new home so long as it is not north of VA/MD or west of Mobile. If we wanted to go on long cruises we would not be selling it LOL. We realize that KW isn’t the easiest location to reach but with the market the way it is right now then buyers have to decide if they want a very popular model boat for a fair price. There are much worse places for a cruise than the Keys. Please. Please. Please. If you are not a serious buyer then respect my time. We are not interested in trades for anything and will not finance under any circumstances. J-Bear is currently on the hard getting a new dripless shaft seal system installed and should be back in the water around 1/6/22. I will get some engine room, galley and berth photos when the boat is back in the marina. [/FONT]

Electronics (Raymarine 80, Furuno depth, auto pilot, radio) are all functional but dated. I fully intended to replace them until we cruised the boat over 1000 miles using an iPad as the primary navigation source. Upgrades will have to wait for the new owner. I was very happy after actually using them with what was on the boat.

J-Bear is back in the water with her new PSS shaft seal installed. I've added a couple more photos. We obviously aren't marketing the boat very hard and have not listed it anywhere but here yet. Mostly that is because we have limited availability right now to show the boat due to medical appointments. I figured a serious TF member that wanted the boat would be a bit more understanding and patient than someone off the street. We are hoping around mid-February to be able to market her more aggressively. Don

Sorry to hear about your medical situation, hoping for full recovery.

You mentioned a single-helm version, not sure that I've seen that. So there is no helm at all in the salon?

Thank you

That is correct. No inside helm. We have had two boats now without them, this one on purpose, as we never used them. Not sure if that would work in the PNW or Maine but in the southern U.S. we have never wished for an inside helm. Plus there are curtains now and outside covers on the windows.



Don
 
Thanks for the confirmation. I have seen a lot of cruisers with just the flybridge helm but just hadn't seen a single helm Mainship 34. Thanks again
 
I never knew they made such a model. I'd love to see the helm area interior and exterior. Did they leave the sliding door at the helm? What is there, just a really tall counter?
 
Helm Area

Here is a picture. Great storage on top or a place to collect junk depending on your definition LOL. We are glad to have the extra place to put stuff and sorry for the clutter but we are on the boat right now. Hinged door to SB is behind the recliner so we don't use it. But it is there if you need it.

Thanks for the picture. Looks like basically the same cabinet as the dual-helm version just without the wheel and instrument box on top.
 
34 mainship

Wife and I are in the market for 34 or 39 Mainship Trawler... live in Charleston. Any additional pics? Age of Electronics? Any additional upgrades last few years? Honestly, no lower helm may or may not be a concern... never thought about pluses and/or minuses. My email is included.

Wishing you the best...

Thanks,

Amazing looking boat! Almost a perfect fit for what I'm looking for. Just so far away from home for me....
 
Thanks for the compliment. I guess you could do a partial loop and get it home. Maybe you will get lucky and find one that someone in the area that is finishing up the loop. Too far for me to deliver it since I'd be divorced if I took the time :):).


Don
 
You're right, that would be about half the loop - which sounds fun. But I'm not quite ready for that yet.
Yes, do try to avoid a divorce. I hear that costs even more than a boat..... :)
 
Some additional pictures. Price has some negotiation room until we move the boat to Fort Meyers and list it with a broker. Use the $$ you could save to cruise the keys!!
