• 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.

21 foot diesel-powered trawler custom built with Airex core. 33 horsepower Mitsubishi industrial diesel Vetus engine. 1/2 gallon per hour at 6 knots fuel consumption.

I'm offering my 21 Bruce Roberts Trawler for sale. This a great little boat that we have used for 10+ years and we're thinking bigger since buying an Albin 25D. Belts and hoses are excellent. AGM batteries. Twin bilge pumps. Two high water alarms. I love this little cruiser. Bimini top and full set of curtains (Sunbrella and Isinglass) in excellent condition to completely enclose cockpit. Sunbrella snap-in privacy curtains for cabin. It's slow, about 6 knots at 1600 rpm, and just sips fuel at less than 3/4 gallons an hour. Head stored under bunks. There's a nice set of rod holders and downriggers with mounting plates on the transom. Custom steps for stepping into boat and set of steps for boarding from the water. Boat painted with Interlux Perfection two-part polyurethane epoxy. VHF radio, chartplotter, depth sounder and backup GPS. Many spare filters and hoses.
EVERYTHING WORKS. Trailer with surge brakes, new spare and excellent tires. She'll go up to 8 knots, but she is much more efficient at 6 or so. Lot of boat for the money and she is ready to go. I have taken her offshore a couple times and have complete faith in her. She has safely and reliably carried us from Deltaville, MD on the Chesapeake to Amelia Island, FL near Jacksonville. Email me or text me for more info.

Thanks for looking
