• 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.

View attachment 114263View attachment 1142621987 Hershine Newburyport Trawler, designed by Monk. $75,000.
Great Loop veteran, ready to go again! She has been well cared for and is in excellent condition for her age, turn key and ready for your next adventure. With less than 4’ draft, an air draft of 16’ with mast lowered/under 15’ with canvas lowered, and a nearly 750 mile range Vahevala has cruised through the Erie Canal, Lake Champlain, the Trent Severn and Rideau waterways, Georgian Bay, the Great Lakes, downtown Chicago, the inland river system, the East Coast ICW, the Keys and the Bahamas comfortably and safely. Vahevala has a been fantastic vessel, her owners are hoping to move up to a full time live aboard. She has had extensive upgrades in the past few years. It would be a challenge to find a vessel as fine in this price range.

I like your boat! My wife and I will be in Florida to take a look at trawlers April 15-20th. I'd like to include Vahevala on the list. We are planning on doing the loop in 2022 but would like to purchase a boat ahead of time and get some practice (play days) in to get the bugs worked out. I've owned a couple of sail boats and a power boat in the past but its been awhile.

Please let me know if its still available.

PS. Springer Spaniel? My wife's a vet.

Thanks,

Hi Trent, thanks for your interest. Vahevala is under contract, she will be surveyed on Thursday. Best wishes on your search, our friends will be listing their Krogen Manatee very soon. It is a sweet boat, looper veteran as well, and so well cared for. Watch here for Barefoot Shoes coming soon.

Rory is a Portuguese Water Dog, she looped with us in 17-18!
