• 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.

I thought about entitling this "Marine junkyard list," but that seems to encompass too wide a definition.

So why not have a sticky post for this topic? List your local one here.

I recently wandered through this place, and despite the name, it's all about boats:

Southern Cross Ships Chandlery (no apostrophe missing, BTW)
103 Myrick Street
Pensacola, FL 32505

850-377-1776

southerncrossmarineservices.com
info@southerncrossmarineservices.com

The proprietor said that if he did not have it in stock he would gladly take calls and search his contacts for the item.

I saw no engines, but there was plantyof recovered teak, bow rails, railings, older electronics, and on, and on.
 
Thanks! Might be worth a ride over there one day. :)
 
Marine Salvage - California

Marine salvage businesses seem to have waned over the years. 25-years ago, Minneys Marine Salvage in Newport Beach was a cornucopia of useful stuff. Now, seems the gear is dated - folks want new.

But here are two California options:

1. Minneys Yacht Surplus Newport Beach CA (HERE)
2. Blue Pelican in Oakland/Alameda (SF Bay) (HERE)

Must be a bear to manage cashflow with inventory sitting for so long. They seem to have many more people who want to sell them stuff than purchase.

Thanks, Peter. Lets see some more from others.
 
If you're near Fort Pierce, FL these guys have lots of new and used.

Marine Connection Liquidators

As with any place offering deals new and used, it's important to know what stuff sells for. Lots of good deals to be had, but not everything is a deal.

I can vouch for Marine Engine Salvage in Stockton, CA. I've been buying boats and service there for 30 years.
 
There's also Don's marine surplus and salvage in Clearwater, Used them many a time when living in Tampa area. Huge yard with everything you might want.
 
Ken's Marine Supply, Gulfport, MS. They have an eclectic selection of new, NOS, used, military surplus stuff. Lots of used props.
 
Good place in Sarasota FL

Marine Surplus

It's not a junk yard. Everything is organized, but prices are good.
