• 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.

Hi John - Thanks for showing us La Vita Dolce! My wife and I loved the layout and space... She truly does "live large for her length."

All - At the risk of self-sabotage (we are interested... but sadly... she is a touch beyond our comfort level budget wise)... she is worth a look if you are considering this style, size, & age trawler.

Peace,
Pete
 
Cheoy Lee 40 LRC - UNDER CONTRACT

The boat is under contract. I will remove the ad when it is sold.
Thanks all. JohnS
 
Back for Sale

La Vita Dolce is back for sale.
The "buyer" I thought I had was less than I thought he was.
After having the boat inspected by his friend who likely was a surveyor, and negotiating a price thereafter, he showed on closing day with a substantially lower offer.
I am selling her, not giving her away.
She is both a good boat, a good cruising boat, and a good boat for the money.
Thanks all for your interest.

Cheoy lee 40 lrc for sale again

Thanks.
I am reposting all my ads, and re-contacting everyone who responded to them.
Boat Pics and info at - johnsboat.net
Thanks, JohnS
 
Negotiating a new price based on an inspection is one thing... but showing up to close with less than agreed... wow. He was probably hoping to flip it.
Hang in!
 
Cheoy Lee 40 LRC

That was my last thought also.
I had already spent money correcting / checking things that he had asked / complained about. But they are now done.

Under Contract ???

I have reached an agreement to sell our beloved La Vita Dolce. All should go as planned. When the sale is complete, I will post that info. I am taking our ads down.
Thanks to everyone here for their help over the past years. John Sage
 
John,

Did the sale go through?

I hope so after all that you have been through but if not please me know as I am interested. Thank you.
