I've been looking at the Sailrite project How to make Magnetic Window Shades and it looks very simple and has the advantage that I wouldn't have to drill holes to mount snaps. We have just had the boat Awlgripped and I am worried about the adhesive snaps on the new finish. The boat has never...

Ashland, MA? Hi, Geoff. Do you cruise out of Padanaram?

Hi, folks. I'm looking to add window covers for the pilot house on our Pacific Trawler 40. Most of the ones I've seen on trawlers are snap-on mounted on the outside. I have seen some, particularly on a Flemming, that were mounted on the inside and more like the roller shades in our salon. Is...

You'll have to show me next time we're both in the yard. Fun times!

Thanks for the info. We currently have a piece of plywood holding the remaining glass in place as it's been raining non-stop all weekend. I took a piece of the glass to measure the thickness and hopefully Diamond Sea Glaze will have some records.

Hi, folks. One of our fixed salon windows had an unfortunate encounter with a pulpit-mounted anchor, which means replacing the glass at the very least. Does anybody know which model Diamond Sea Glaze windows were used in the Bellingham-built Pacific Trawlers? Has anyone replaced the glass in...

Some things We're in New England, so the list may vary a bit, but I love our throw blankets, pressure cooker, small butane stove for cooking outside when it's too warm to cook inside, a lobster pot (compliments the butane stove), Kanberra tea tree gel. +1 on the Magma cookware, which migrated...

We're interested in checking out areas from Gloucester north this summer. We're based in Lynn Ma and most of our cruising (both sail and last year in the trawler) has been south of Boston and Buzzards Bay. Love Cuttyhunk, Padanarum, Onset, Plymouth, and Scituate. Going north in late July...

I bought and installed this unit last year. Easy install, solid performance. Binnacle has a US "branch" and sells this unit for $599 currently. This model includes an antenna splitter. I still need to install an on/off switch for transmit, but I've been very happy with it in foggy New England.

pics of rear awning? That looks great! I had seen pics of this boat previously and am really interested in that rear awning. Any way you can post some details and pics of that?

Hi, folks. We will be replacing the 20-year-old carpeting in our Pacific Trawler. I have read in other places that cork floating floors such as those sold by Lumber Liquidators (the click lock kind) are possibly a good choice for the saloon/galley/pilothouse floors. We used this flooring in a...

Has anyone replaced a PHII with the ME? What is the difference in footprint? Looking to swap ours out.

Close...at Lynn Yacht Club. Were you local?

Not cruising -- yet We purchased the PT nearly two months ago and will bring her back in the spring. We have great support down there from Pontchartrain Yacht Works as caretakers. Carol.

Hi, folks Not a lot of activity in this area. Are there any Pacific Trawler owners out there? We are Carol and Bruce M/V Easy Wind, Nahant, MA current location: Mandeville, LA 2000 PT40 hull #38

Well, we did it. The Pacific Trawler 40 that was in Mandeville is now ours. We will be moving it North in the spring to just north of Boston. Interestingly, the abstract says the boat was built in Bellingham WA by Nordic NW. Did Nordic Tugs have a hand in building these? From what the PO...

Fair Haven We've been looking into that one. Wondering what our other options might be.

Pacific Trawler That would be great, Jim. My email is carolts1@comcast.net. Where are you located? Carol.

We're making the jump from sail cruising to trawler cruising. Looking to see if anybody has a Pacific Trawler 40 for sale on the east coast. Apparently there was one up in Maine that sold last year. Thanks in advance.
