• 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.

American Tug 34
Hi folks,

After selling our venerable American Tug 34 a few years back, we are still looking for another boat.
We are based. in Victoria, Canada, but open to US boats.
Looking for Nordic Tug, American Tug, Grand Banks , Monk, North Pacific, Corvette 340, CHB, Nordhavn or similar.
Good engine essential, and not looking for projects! Older boats considered if an excellent maintenance/reft history.
Happy to help sellers avoid the brokers fees, and no financing required. Budget is up to $500K. CAD.

Thanks and best regards
Bernie

Looks great, but the current administration's effects on the CAD/USD has killed US boat options for us.
Thanks Bernie

There's a Camano 41 on the market, looks nice.
 
Many thanks, couldn't find a Camano 41? Do you have a link? the 31 is too small for us.
 
Camano was bought by Bracewell, and the newer 41's are called Bracewell 41.

Thanks, yes at the current exchange US$429,000 is $615,000 CAD, which is far too much for us Canadian''s looking at a year 2000 boat. Remember when there was dollar parity a few years back? Sadly, with the recent exchange rates US boats are now no longer feasible for us.

Hi Bernie,

Getting back with you about your boat search. Sorry to hear that the Drumpf administration has entered into many facets of our lives on both side of the border. I've lived in Alaska and northern tier states all of my life and have always considered the border to be a lawn fence between two friendly neighbors.

Now about the boat...as I mentioned before, and included photos, it is a Rosborough RF 35. From what I have been able to gather it was originally designed for use by the Canadian Coast Guard. It is a 1989, older than you wanted, but it has a Cummins 8.3 with less than 1,000 hours. It was completed rewired by an electrical contractor, and the interior professionally refurbished. I had originally mentioned that I would like to keep it for another couple of years, but that might be negotiable. She is located in Homer Alaska. There is a lot to explore on the way to Vancouver Is., including Kachemak Bay, Kodiak Island, Prince Wm Sound, and the entire Inside Passage. Keep in mind, this is not a "sofa" boat. She has a big, partially covered back deck that is an excellent fishing platform. Price would be under $150,000 US. Keep in touch, and good luck with your search.

Thanks, I replied. Nice boat! Good luck with your sale. Preferably looking for something 2000+ and single engine unless it has had outstanding maintenance or an extensive refit.
Cheers
