• 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.

1975 Marine Trader 34 Double Cabin: This boat has been completely restored and is in exceptional condition. It has an excellent Ford Lehman 120hp Diesel engine and a velvet drive transmission. The drive train is protected with a drive saver coupling and a new cutlass bearing system. The engine burns just 2 gallons per hour and cruises at 8 knots. It has new electric power, lighting, potable water, hot water, waste water, and electronics systems. All windows have been replaced. The Fuel tanks have been redesigned and replaced with two 75 gal aluminum tanks, and a 23gal day running tank. It has a Gulf Coast fuel polishing system to <1 micron. It has an oil polishing system. A MarinAir air conditioning system was installed in 2015. Steering is very smooth with a hydraulic system from both lower and fly bridge stations. The engine and transmission controls are fly by wire. It has an autopilot system that hasn't been commissioned yet. Two new plastic potable water tanks and a stainless grey water tanks have been installed. The windlass has 200' brass chain and rope wire system. The interior cushions have all been reupholstered. New mattresses throughout. Garmin GPSMAP-740s depth sounder and GPS. Bow thruster is controlled from both steering stations.
The boat was surveyed in 2013 and was valued at:
VESSEL VALUE: $49,863.00
VESSEL REPLACEMENT VALUE: $289,989
Since this survey, many improvements have been made and she has been stored inside a heated shop ever since I took ownership in 2013.

My apologies. It is located on the Hudson River near Albany NY. Yes there is a bow thruster that can be operated from either inside helm or from the fly bridge.
 
Hi, looks like some really nice upgrades, we're in WA state but understand shippable by truck an option. Please share the additional photops.
 
How about battery banks, inverter, genset info ?

just today i walked away from the second trawler i had under contract after the survey. both had high moisture content in various locations as well as rot. one was an albin in grand rivers ky and the other an island gypsy.
what is the history on this boat ? any recent surveys? i am ready to buy and can be there in a matter of days. recently sold my sea ray and ready to start on my next boat. email me at tn6437@aol.com
thanks, terry
 
Hi, initial photos very interesting. Don't think you have a viable offer unless you are upfront with those additional photos promised.
 
I replaced the batteries in 2016. The engine has its own battery. There are 2 banks (A&B) of 2-6volt batteries each, connected in series, to give 12 volts. There is an inverter to power the whole boat. There is not a generator currently. There is a spot in the lazarette for a genset though. The AC can only be used when on shore power.
 
I don't understand your comment. I can only post 12 photos here. I can send a link to the other photos if you send an email address.

The pics are great. Thanks for sharing and the boat looks quite clean!
