Yes we did sell our Selene by owner. Sale went very smoothly. Bittersweet....

We are pleased to say, we have sold our lovely Selene. Although sad to be leaving her, we are excited for the new owners. Thank you Trawler Forum for providing us a place to advertise our boat.

Sadly we are selling our lovely Selene. We purchased her to do the loop and with all of the Covid complications we have not been able to do that. We are currently in Punta Gorda, FL and plan to stay on her until the beginning of April. Her single engine Cummins has 2670 hours. We would be happy...

We are going to be land lubbers for awhile. Another boat will always be in the future though. We love this boat but we just aren’t using her enough by not doing the planned loop.

We are in the process of pricing and pictures but wanted to get the word out.. Beautifully maintained, great live aboard and only 2677 hours on the single Cummins engine. Plan to remain on her until mid April but are initiating the selling process.

Good info, thanks!

What type of work did they do? thanks so much for responding!

We are in need of an electrician to troubleshoot battery issues on our Selene 43. Any recommendations would be appreciated. We are at Marina Jacks and plan to go through their service department if we don't hear of any other options...

We actually became RV owners by accident. We had to postpone our loop last March due to COVID so we spent 3 more actually lovely months on our boat in Florida. Then we started looking at the ominious return to Michigan which was locked down tight and we would have to drive back and stay at...

thanks Chris. Our boat is not Awlgrip... it has never been painted. The previous owner had it professionally cleaned and waxed before we took ownership. Thanks for your other listed items.

Thanks Paul. Your advice is spot on. We do plan on recycling the full water tank. We left them full with bleach to hopefully cut down on crud growing on the sides of the tank. Good points about waiting to change the oil after the engine has had a chance to warm up... We're just trying to get as...

We left the water tanks full with some bleach in them. Hubby plans to check and charge batteries. Not sure what cycling the seacocks means??

Hello fellow trawler owners... haven't been on here for awhile because we had to go back to our dirt home because of the Covid situation. Cruising around from marina to marina in Florida didn't seem like a good idea back in May. Anyway, thankfully we are headed back to our lovely Selene 43 in...

We can agree to disagree. I say Michigan's governor has overstepped.

Amen! We are adults and for the most part we can be careful. Once again our government is intent on protecting us from ourselves. I sound like a militant... I'm not but I have seen my freedoms taken away piece by piece and this is how it happens. I want to paint my hallway, I want to plant my...

First of all, latest research has shown that it is a very very low chance that you will get this virus from left over germs on a can of paint or more importantly groceries that you put in your cart, secondly I always wear a new pair of latex gloves and then discard them after I leave a store so...

I am all for taking precautions, appreciating those first responders, and realizing that boating can be a luxury but I am also concerned that our governor has stepped over the line in prohibiting me and my husband from taking our 21 ft. bowrider off our dock to get outside and go for a nice putz...

I doubt that but I'll be sure to do that. The previous owner of our boat was meticulous and I am sure he would have known not to use silicone. He was the one who told me to use 4200 in the first place.

The depth is 1" or so. Can't really measure it but based on the depth of the old caulk I removed I would say it was around that.

Thanks Comodave. You're probably right. Maybe I'll try to just put the Sikaflex in and try to do a better job of pressing it down into the seam. Hopefully it will be easier to work with than the 4200. I just found that product to be so sticky, and it skinned over so quickly. I have done a lot of...

I just looked at backer rod products in Home depot's website and they are not going to work in my case because they are too wide for the gap. The smallest diameter I found was ⅜ and that would be double the width I have. I suppose I could try to cram it down the seam with a putty knife but I am...

Thank you so much! All good suggestions. I can say the seam does not connect 2 independent parts so movement is not the problem. After reading your suggestions I am thinking its failure is a combination of not cleaning the edges enough and not filling the depth of the seam enough. I should say...

We have a deck seam on our fly bridge that requires maintenance caulking. It isn’t a wide seam but it can vary in depth. I caulked it with 4200 in November and I don’t like the way it looks already. It seems to be receding away from the fiberglass edges and I’m worried it may create seepage...

Thought I'd update you folks on our Splendide situation. We hired a great repair guy who came out and yes... as I suspected the belt had come off the drum. Thanks to you guys, the milk crate and pressed board "table" worked great to slide the machine out on to. My husband and the repair guy...
