• Trawler Forum Classified Posting Guidelines

    • 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.

Joe. Why are you selling it, is there one already installed.
I think you have just started cruising. You may want auto in 6 months of hand steering.

No, there’s not an autopilot installed. All the electronics are fairly old on the boat and I’d like to replace all of at it at some point. Would want to have all the electronics matching from same vendor.
I actually enjoy standing at the helm steering, and just the past few days dodging crab pots, logs and other stuff on in the water, seems it wouldn’t get that much use either.
Maybe down the road I’ll be kicking myself that I did sell it. For now I’m good. And as you know there isn’t much storage space for a full time liveaboard on these GB36s, and what space it was taking up I can use for other things. Mainly tools. Both my tool kits are currently under the table of the settee. No place else to put um that they would be handy.
 
I'm not sure if this is correct, but I *think* you could consider keeping just the linear drive? That would be more specific to your Grand Banks, wouldn't it (and expensive)? Whereas the rest of the components could be used on any boat.

(I suppose this depends on how "universal" the linear drive would be for other, future autopilots you might want.)

Maybe someone more knowledgeable can comment.

When I'm single-handing, I really appreciate the autopilot (don't use it all the time, but often).

I like how that worked out. I see many posts (not just here) where one spouse is trying to "figure out how to convince" the other one to come cruising.

You (apparently) came to an agreement with yours, you each headed out on your separate modes of travel, and then she came to the boat and realized hey, this is pretty cool, can I join? Nice!

Maybe there is a GB42 in your future :D

Yep, 45yrs together, she wanted to do the RV thing, see if she could handle it by herself. After she came out in summer and spent a month on the boat, she really liked it. And being retired financing two households just made sense to come aboard. She’s in Cedaredge, CO right now, needs to sell her RV and car, yard sale her storage unit then she will come. We both always wanted to retire the beach anyway, now we can go to multiple beachs

I’m looking casually for a GB Alaskan, think a 49ft would be just right as far as haul outs, transient slips and all. Marine Trader builds a copy of it in glass as well that fits the budget. Like to stay 50ft and under. Really need 3 cabins, GB42 classic would be a lot like this boat, just more beam and nicer shower. One of the two things I don’t like on this 36, the shower and galley sink
