• 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.

thx Bayview. She's a sweetie. Teak handrails have sunbrella rail covers not shown in photos./pat
 
The fenders, lines and pillows alone are worth the asking price.

Nice clean boat. I wish my Perkins looked that nice.
 
We almost bought a 44 5 years ago but our yard couldn’t haul it. Absolutely love the layout of the boat. Gotta ask though, why the photos of the breakers???
 
Allan: did not get a PM. I'm new here so where do I find it. Anyway: this boat has not been surveyed since we bought her almost 17 years ago. She has been loved, thoough./pat
 
Comodave: the breakers happened to be in a file and the broker did not delete them when he posted to YW./pat
 
Hi Pat, as long as you are logged in, look on the upper right, there will be your private messages to select.
Thanks,
Alan.
 
Go for thorough sea trial. Haul and thoroughly check it out. Then - Buy IT!!
 
The boat looks great and the price is very nice. My only critique would be, there are no specifications on the "Full Specifications" page, and the staging looks like it was done by a recent interior design school grad with no live-aboard or cruising experience (that was a real turn-off b/c it couldn't be taken seriously). It's like tying a pink ribbon on the alternator pulley belt.

I wish we could have found a boat like that, at that price. We would have offered full price.
 
Hello JB: the yacht world link has the info. The photos were not staged: the Admiral merely got rid of the "clutter" so it would not distract from the essence of the boat. Whoever buys it is welcome to restore the clutter of their choice./pat
 
Outstanding boat. Wife would be driving me to Pittsburgh if we had our current boat sold. Well-staged.
 
Our Gulf Star was built in 78 and sold in 79. My wife and I have lived aboard her for 8 years here in San Diego and in Mexico. Great boat. My 12th boat and, considering my vintage, quite likely my last. The old Perkins have always been a little loud and a little smokey but have never missed a beat and stingy with fuel.
 
Thanks, she's been a sweetie for the almost 17 years we've enjoyed her. Good luck selling your boat.
 
It shows that it is well loved and cared for. It'll go quickly. Cheers.
 
Just spent 4 nights anchored out on a friend's, which we had also helped bring down from Maryland to NC as well as supervised the survey for them last fall. Great layout, good ergonomics, well put together. We're very thankful they have it!
