Trailerable Trawler

[Rhokken]

Still hoping to find a trailerable trawler. Preferred locations would be southern Ontario or Vancouver areas. Something like an Albin 25. Searching from Regina, SK.

You can also try the Rosborough group. These are cool little 26-footers that are frequently sold with a trailer.

Good luck.

C-Dorys and Atlas Acadias are two 25' trailerable "trawlers". My avatar at the left shows an Atlas Pompano 23, but that isn't really a livable "trawler".

Thanks for the info.����

 

[Rhokken]

Thanks, I’ll take a look.

Maybe?

My current facebook presence is limited to five, boat brand specific, groups. I chose these five groups as I will likely buy one of these boats.

When you come closer to deciding what boat you want, there is probably an online webpage and/or facebook page for that boat. An additional site to find boats for sale and/or make your own post looking for a boat.

One of the boats that I too am interested in is the Albin 25. Seems to be a sweet spot for these boats in Vancouver.

albinowners.com is a good website for all albin boats.
The Albin Cruisers 25 & 27 facebook group is very specific to only Albin 25/27's.

David mentions C-Dory. There is also a specic C-Dory owners website at The C-Brats :: Home

I've always listed over the Acadia 25. What a great day/weekend boat for a place like Florida (where they are made). Lobster boat style is so very approachable.

Thanks, again, Jim. I’ve wanted something like this for years but didn’t know it until I retired. Then Covid struck, access became difficult, and ‘staycations’ became the norm. With winter, I took a low-paying job to get off the couch and banish the boredom, and now work two nights a week until after midnight. Which shoots my days to hell.
Sure would be nice to have a boat for the summer!

One was just listed on the Albin 25&27 FB Group page…Salish Sea . Not sure if the group is public - you might need to sign up but here’s the link.

Not a Facebook person but am having someone try to follow this lead. Thanks. Quick guess is boat was ‘sold’ but is listed again for some reason.

There is a 25' listed in Tallahassee, FL on craigslist.

Misspelled as "Alvin 25" if you search for it.

 

[Rhokken]

No trailer with this one. But thanks.

A trailer is immaterial. It's the boat that is important. Shop for the boat. If it comes with a trailer, fine. But don't lose perspective here. A trailer can always be acquired post purchase.

Albin 25 w trailer possibly available .

Boat and trailer is in southern Ontario. I’m in southern Az at the moment. Send me a PM more for details. I also have the mast, rigging, and sales to convert it back to a sailboat.

Here is a picture of my Tresfjord 28. Norwegian built and rock solid.

Thanks for the advice.

 

[Rhokken]

From the one photo it looks like a fine boat!

You might also want to check out the Eastern/Seaway boats.https://www.easternboats.com/our-boats

They make several trawler-type models of 24 and 25 feet, all trailerable. A friend just bought a 24 of theirs and is really pleased with it.

 

[Rhokken]

Thanks. I wasn’t aware of them.

Sound advice. I purchased a Cargile Cutter in 2015, in the water at a marina near Nashville. No trailer. Drove up from Florida and bought it. Paid slip rental for 2 months. Found a trailer in St. Pete. Month and a half after purchase went up and brought the boat home. Keep your eyes on the prize!

"Yes" as far as boating goes. I do the same as JLD does. Amazing amount of info and help on boat/engine maintenance. The boating forums are mostly removed from the s..t show that most of facebook is. Suggest you use the TOR browser when accessing facebook.
