Nooooooo I just saw this, darn! Congrats to the new owner!

She needs love and money! I hope someone with plenty of each becomes her next owner, I’d love to watch the transformation! New boats are shiny and happy and it’s hard not to get googley eyed over them …but there’s something magical about an old boat!

Ah, brings back many fond memories of a project 1978 38' double cabin Marine Trader I "restored" in the 90's. It was slipped on the Black River in South Haven off of Lake Michigan. Thoughts of cruising soon turned to the restoration process which turned out to be the most enjoyable part of owning the boat. Something so elevating about being on a boat and watch it being transformed. Your comment about being a double screw is exactly right, as my first boat was a double screw '84 40' Mainship while this Marined Trader (parted with through divorce) was a single screw - by choice for the reason you mentionded - way less maintanance and performance on a trawler will never get you up on plane, even with two engines and I found that a single screw is way more fun to navigate. Well, now I'm 80 and the boating thing is just a fond memory... thanks for showing this boat... maybe my next incarnation.😀👍

Glad you enjoyed it. I’d love to see that Mainship.

It ain't worth as much as she is paying in slip fees. For being someone who has fallen into the fixer upper pit of hell and learned his lesson. No matter how good it looks it will need at least three times what you think it will need. This one looks like it needs a lot. If your looking for a boat just go spend 100k on a boat in good condition ready to go and you will be ahead of getting this one.

I totally agree! This boat will be a money pit! And unless you can afford an experienced crew to do the repairs in a timely manner you'll be working on it for a long time! And if you're retired and plan on traveling in it, then scratch that for the most part because to get it in shape is going to eat up your money ! I would look for a better boat ready to go !

Bust Out Another Thousand

Twin engines are ALWAYS best. Should u be out riding or fishing and one engine stops u can still get back or keep going. Twin is best.

Sorry sailor, I just bought a 36ft Carver , no project work. Owner changed the oil and dewinterised the two Mercruisers and I have my own dock, just 1 mile down river. I honestly think that you might review your asking price. I paid $22000 in an auction

Money pit! The engines are original 45 years old and appear decades neglected like the rest of the boat. If they run, the raw water cooling side and the exchangers will probably require replacing. Before raw water invades the engines? Feul tanks have microbes living in the oil from sitting numerous years. Replacing a pair of diesels is about $80K plus replacement costs and rebuilding the transmissions. It needs new battery cradles and rewiring that spaghetti mess. Replacing soft decks is very expensive. I DIY re-decked my Grady White and a Pro-Line. This is a fiberglass boat built onto a wood core. If parts of the decks are soft, the core rotted under the glass and the hull might have soft spots also.

What a pity. At one time she was a beautiful boat. Tons of time, money will be needed to restore. Whomever decides to take on this project and has both will end up with a true gem.

There is not a centimeter on that boat that does not need redoing.

Brainless comment, what do you expect, a new boat?

Nope. That vessel needs a major refitting. $80,000+. 2 to 3 years of hard, do-it-yourself work. How much does one of those vessel in good condition go for on Yacht World? That vessel is no bargain. Not by any means. Sorry. Take the first $5000. Better yet. Give it away after 2 months go by and not sold. Remember those Slip fees. Even if they're $500 per month now. Those Slip fees add up. Change the price to $10,000 today. Get that thing sold this month! Slip fees slip fees slip fees BTW. I live on the West Coast. So don't think I'm scamming her.

Compared to $4000 and up a month for a hotel in that area, not bad!

No way, needs to much work and money...

I have fixed a few--and there is only one way to do it--out of the water and into a facility where a complete strip down can take place. The boat is OLD so no matter how well the jobs is done beyond the minimum essential for safe passage making, , it is not a large profit, or even a viable resale prospect. That means it is a fix-up and keep long term for someone. The engines will determine the viability--how many hours have they done and what do the maintenance logs look like? Is it keel cooled or does it have a heat exchanger? All has a bearing on whether or not this is a viable prospect. Four thousand hours on the engines is not excessive--they are good for at least twice that number if properly maintained.

My 49 year old Chris Craft 35dc is in somewhat better condition. Much cleaner and dryer, but still has some of the same issues. Leaking is something you get used to, as long as it's not sinking. Great tour. Nice boat though. We looked at a 52 ft Kashing in San Diego a few years back. It was really nice, but 200k and a title that was in dispute. Also some of c the same issues. No thanks.

The metal interior hides the dry rot on the original wood paneling. As was said, the windows leak and the paneling suffers.

Nothing more expensive than an inexpensive boat.

$30 a foot dock fee would be a show stopper for me. $1200 per month? That's sad.

Swim the bottom and look at the running gear. If the engine and transmission work. Give them 10k, figure 10 months in the yard and a few 100 hrs of sweat equity. Keep it basic, folks tend to buy a lot of stuff they don't end up using.

Beautiful!!✨

Offer what you are willing to pay .anything can be fixed if you learn how .plenty of channels on here to help

Interesting , Thank You . Could be nice , But I see a LOT of Money and work . I wonder what the haul out would show. More project than I would want. Where do you Start?

Brainless comment from a Yank who knows nothing.

Even free it’ll take $100k to get it in shape then it’ll only be worth $45k. Sad to see these old trawlers neglected. If sold it’ll become a floating home again and eventually sink at the dock or at anchor like so many others in its current condition.

Once again, the criminal YT bastards have hidden my comment, but avise me of new comments, perhaps they don't like Yanks being criticised for expecting old boats to look new, who then quote brainless prices to make them look new. If you want a new looking boat, stop looking at cheap used ones, just to make ridiculous criticism, buy a new one.

Cool looking there now

20K and one year full-time to restore. Another 10K for the engines rebuild not to mention if the gen works plus redoing the bottom. That should be a freebie.

Thank you.

Welcome

Stateroom is a real love palace.

Anyone that thinks 1250…. A month is bad…. Rent a house on the beach once…. You would be happy to just pay 1250 a month… and 1250 for the closest ocean front property you could ever rent …. Is a dam good price … plus the fact that you take you’re house with you… you can go anywhere that’s water capable that is…. And what do you pay for rent for your house or apartment….. yeah more than 1250 a month in most cases…

What Marina? I'd like to look at it. Could you ask the owner if I can look at it?

I’d love to. Do you ever come up the gulfcoast? Maybe I’ll make a keys trip. What island are you on?

Great Air bnb boat

I'd personally spend around $50k on a 36-foot trawler that's basically ready to go. You'll save about a year of hard work, and in the end, you'll have spent less money overall.

leaks are easy, use epoxy rasin make it 3x coating

What it costs to rent a slip there is what it costs, can’t change it. But I wouldn’t buy that boat planning to restore her. “If” I bought her I’d do the bare minimum cosmetics and enjoy the local scene. If you want to restore her she needs to get put on the hard with some very very deep pockets, lots of sweat, and little hopes of ever getting your $$ back when you sell her. I’m speaking from experience. I did my 2yr labor of love and even it had its rewards the biggest reward come the day I sold her. Without doing anything this boat is going to cost you $40,000 for the first year and $15,000 a year at current slip fees “IF” nothing else gets done or needs to be done and I doubt you can even buy insurance against future storm damage. But…to each their own.😎

Def woth it.... I've owned 15 boats mostly sail.... tine to go back to power... At this price + a few K more could have a really nice vessel. I'm in the Northeast so not for me, otherwise a big yes!

I would pass on that one.

How do you get in touch with the owner?.....

I'll trade you a car.

Needs painted and instalation around doors

Bed room no ac at all does it smell their

In engine room, is now time to take a smoke?

#85 I will have to agree with the other sailors, this vessel will require a lot of work. If you had the time and skill to refit a marine vessel, plus a place to dry land it to do the work necessary. Don't forget pumps, generators, drive train, etc. ----- Sorry! But I would pass on this, let the current owner do as they may. I once helmed steam ships on the Great Lakes over 50 years ago. Now Retired, Happiness is The Highway!

I don't know, spend 10 years on it and do nothing to it still cheap lodgings then on sell with just cosmetic repairs for 20k someone will make an offer, just my opinion cheers

Be surprised if it sold for any amount of money. You can tell the bow decks leak, rotting into v-birth. Water damage everywhere. Cost just to make it seaworthy is an easy 50k without labor. It's a total loss.

Needs battery's 44 year old boat.

Another one dollar boat desperate for a home.....

25 grand for a 50-year-old boat that you're gonna have to put 50 grand into not worth it.

She is worth the time and money it would take to bring her back to her former glory.

For $ 500 create a fire and take the insurance money.

|It needs 20 grand spent on it to bring it up to anything near respectable
