• 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:

    • Exterior picture or pictures

  • 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.

Mainship 350 Trawler
FOR SALE: 1997 Mainship 350 Trawler

$110,000 US Dollars
Location: Menominee, Michigan
Dimensions: LOA 39 feet, beam 14 feet, draft 3.8 feet

This Mainship is a well-maintained, twin-engine boat designed for comfortable liveaboard cruising, whether you’re on the Great Lakes, rivers or the ocean. This dual-station flybridge trawler is one of the most popular boats on America’s Great Loop and had completed the loop twice.

Flybridge
The spacious flybridge has a fully enclosed helm station, with Regalite vinyl windows installed in 2022, providing excellent visibility in all directions. A wide curved staircase – no ladders to climb – makes accessing the flybridge safe and easy. The helm features a Raymarine Axiom 9 multi-function display with AIS transmit/receive, Raymarine Quantum radar, and touchscreen auto-pilot, as well as a Standard Horizon AIS/GPS VHF radio with digital selective calling, hailer and fog signal. Also included are a cell phone Ram Mount bracket and four USB charge ports. The extended rear of the flybridge provides an excellent place to relax dockside or at anchor, and includes a wraparound canvas skirt and a Magma propane grill.

Lower Deck
The exterior of the boat has wide walkways with handrails all around, providing safe and easy access for docking, locking and mooring. The bow features a large anchor locker, a new in 2025 foot-controlled windlass with a 55-pound Rocna Vulcan anchor and 175 feet of chain. A Fortress anchor with rode, plus fenders and dock lines are also included. A sliding door on the starboard side provides easy access to the inside helm station. The large cockpit aft is covered by the extended flybridge and provides access to the salon through a sliding glass door. A rigid inflatable dingy rests upright on the transom with its 15-HP outboard attached. Two electric winches easily lower the dinghy into the water behind the swim platform. The cockpit also features a lake-water washdown hose.

Salon
The air-conditioned salon with reverse-cycle heat features a lower helm station, complete galley and living space. The galley features a dual-voltage Nova Kool refrigerator/freezer new in 2023, four-burner propane stove and oven, microwave, large sink, and an extendable counterspace. The living space offers a large couch and an expandable wooden-topped table for relaxing or eat-in dining. Recessed in the salon counter is a motorized 32-inch Samsung LED TV. Screened windows and doors allow for excellent ventilation.

State Rooms and Head
Three steps down from the salon, the lower level includes a comfortable master stateroom with a queen-size island berth. Cabinets, a hanging locker, drawers, and under-bed storage provides ample space for clothes. A guest stateroom also contains cabinets and a fold-out memory foam queen mattress. The head features a Vacuflush toilet, vanity with cabinets, and a large walk-in shower glass door. The lower level also features a second air-conditioner with reverse-cycle heat, and hatches and portlights have built-in screens for great air flow.
