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).
- 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.
- Pertinent maintenance and condition information
- Exterior picture or pictures
- Interior picture or pictures (boats)
-
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.

Wow. That is a very good price indeed! The magazines have a lot of good info in them and if nothing else the articles get folks thinking about most if not all aspects of the Passagemaker lifestyle. Whatever that it.
Why are you unloading them?

Hi Conrad:
Yes, I learned a lot from the PM's though they are not nearly as informative as they used to be. Having held onto them like they were really valuable for several years, I eventually realized that I was not very likely to ever refer back to them. It is so easy to get info on the web and from forums like this. Also having just begun the process of helping relocate my wife's parents, I have a new found sense of what "hoarding" is, and I started to feel like a hoarder myself. It is good to have the extra space in the office!!

Having cleaned out two highly hoarded houses of relatives in the last few years I know exactly where you're coming from Chris!
One of the major benefits of on-line info is that it doesn't take up shelf space!
I wonder if PMM is losing its relevancy because they have covered the fundamentals so well over the years that they have less to talk about without repeating themselves.

More likely because only very expensive gear warrents the big expensive advertising.
And most folks with 35-50 ft boats don't upgrade to new vessels.

Very modest price is $00.00 but I have already promised them to FF and they are presently out on loan till May when FF was intending to collect them. I'll keep your name in case FF changes his mind.
Chris
AS long as Donny is willing to pass them on, eventually , why not give them to him first?
Fine with me ., although I hope collecting them will not be too hard.
Could Donny drop them off in Harwich Port area this summer? (mother in laws) after his read?

Mags are presently out on loan for about another month. I was waiting to hear back from you, Fred, about your intended arrival schedule in Massachusetts in May(??). If you and Donny can work it out then perhaps Donny can collect them from Phillip who is presently borrowing them. He is closer to Newburyport than I am (in Onset).
