For Sale 36’ Albin 1989 trawler $73,000

[style32]

Due to a change of live, I am selling a quality boat at a more than fair price,
Too many details to list here, the YachtWorld ad will provide that and photos.
Southern Style is a slip in Stuart Florida, well positioned for a fall cruise to the Keys and a winter in
In the Bahamas. Before heading north for the summer or even the Loop.
I have spent over $25,000 in upgrades ( repairs not included in the amount)
If not sold in 90 days I will remove the listing for the winter and
RE-List for sale in May 2025 in the Virginia or Maryland area.

Greetings,
Mr. s. Not ONE ER picture??? Tsk, tsk. ANY listing I see without ER picture(s) is immediately of no interest to me what-so-ever.

RTF,
Thanks for the feedback,
When I look at my posting it does show 1 picture,
Full length starboard side, partial stern.

The YachtWorld.com ad has 42 pictures and complete details of the $25,000 of upgrades I made during 2.5 years of ownership.

We were weekend cruisers in New England, then moved up to the Albin 36’ for longer term cruising, those plans changed with the being grandparents.

My esteemed friend is saying there are no engine photos, no engine room photos.

While I didn’t look at the listing, if there are no ER photos I don’t consider the listing.

OP, I`d be surprised if any of the members commenting would have an interest in buying if the ER sparkled like diamonds. Pictures looks good, take heart,maybe ask the broker to add a pic or 2 of the ER. Advert may imply a replacement engine, I`m guessing the ER is not a shameful pit of concealment.

OP - while adding engine room photos is certainly a plus (and I'd encourage you to do so), your boat looks pretty clean and affordable. If I were in the market my interest would be piqued. I think anyone who'd cross a boat off for only that reason isn't a serious buyer (all due respect to Comodave and RT Firefly, though Comodave has many times been a serious buyer - 24x as I recall).

Before internet days with ease of posting digital photos, engine room pics were rare. And yet somehow boats still sold. Amazing what luddites we must have been!

Good luck with the sale.

Peter.

Greetings,
Mr. mv. Mr. s's boat DOES present quite well AND it seems a pretty good price. While I haven't the track record for purchases Mr. C has, I've been on a fair number of boats. I am strongly of the opinion that the condition of the mechanical spaces TRULY reflects the REAL state of the vessel. Surely, the Luddite that I admit to being, I can't be the only one.
A neat, tidy ER separates those vessels that I would be willing to travel to see from those that I might only look at IF in my immediate vicinity IF I was in the market to buy.

OK. I admit to being addicted to "boat porn" and the ER is a look "under the skirt" as it were.

Apologies to Mr. s for hijacking his thread. Best of success Mr. s. Nice boat in a good location.

I just reached out to your broker for more photos and possibly a video tour. We are at least a 3.5-4 hour drive (each way)... so need a bit more info before committing to the drive. Will keep you updated. Peace - Pete
