    • 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:

    • 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.

Bayliner 4788
We have decided to sell our Bayliner 4788. We completed the ‘Great Loop’ in July 2023 and it now is the time to move onto other pursuits. Currently located at Beacon Bay Marina in Penetanguishene, Ontario. One of the best boating locations in the world, right at the western end of the Trent Severn Waterway, a perfect location to purchase and commission her for a second Loop. The first owner was registered in Chicago in 1999, the second owner imported her to Canada in 2009 and we are the 3rd owners who purchased her in 2018.

The 4788 Pilothouse Motor Yacht is very desirable, with three staterooms and two heads/showers. It has a spacious Salon, sliding doors on both sides of PH for access to the bow and stern, a fully enclosed FB with spacious area for entertaining and a large cockpit with swim platform.

Good question, thought I mentioned asking $225k USD, located in Penetanguishene, ON, on the western entrance of Trent Severn Waterway in Canada. Yes I am the owner since September 2018. Will update the post.

Should also mention that Beacon Bay slip paid until September 2025
Also cleaned up text formating.

Hi Graeme.
Did you write that up just for me? Fit's all the wants, shows great pride in ownership, and you're just around the corner from us. I wished we were ready to make that move, but not quite there yet. Hope she finds a great new owner and keeps cruising the Loop.
 
She's been very good to us, I know we'll have regrets letting her go.
