1993 Grand Banks Classic If you always wanted a 42' Grand Banks Classic and don't mind doing a little work (cosmetic/ detailing), here is your chance to jump on board without having to "breaking the bank". The price is not a misprint, but it is firm. Price her to sell (Estate Sale) for sure and yes SHE RUNS!!! Her hull is in excellent overall condition, but the teak decks while not torn or warped need some sanding, cleaning, and teak oil. There are no soft spots detected, and her props were recently done. Powered by twin Caterpillar 3116 TA, (fresh water cooled) with about 2900 hours. Since 1996 this boat has only seen about 1600 hours (less than an average of about 70 hours per year). A family boat for the past 21 years and taken care of by a knowledgeable owner and his professional diesel mechanic. She has an Onan diesel generator, holds 600 gallons of fuel, and 265 gallons of water. Recent upgrades include a new bridge enclosure, and Furuno Nav Net. Of course this is a lot more equipment (nothing other than the standard Grand Banks list of amenities). With all due respect to the seller and her family, we only want people interested in coming down, taking a good hard look, and putting an offer on paper. This is the best priced 42' Grand Banks you will find that is not a major project. As we mentioned, she runs great and is all there. Just needs someone to love her all over again. Don't delay, she will be sold very, very quickly for sure. Please call for an appointment and thank you for viewing.

Up for sale is our 1997 Sea Ray 370 Sundancer cabin cruiser. It has brand new 502 fuel injected Mercruiser engines, with 0 hours on them. Also, both transmissions were completely rebuilt. Over $35,000 just spent on engines and transmissions alone. The boat was out of the water and has brand new props, prop shafts and seals. It also has fresh bottom paint and zincs. Please see the You Tube Video of the bottom paint job. We also put $4,500 in new interior. While we had it out of the water we also put a new Bimini top and had the Westerbeke Generator completely gone through. It was put in the water this past month and is ready to go… ready for someone else to enjoy. After all the work and money I put into her, the Wife wants it gone - it’s sad to see her go. But I have to listen to the wife. My lose is your gain. Why buy someone else’s boat that you may have to take out of the water and fix something on it. All of the major hard work has been done for you here. You are welcome to call me at 813-363-1342 for more information and to set up a time to see it in person. The SeaRay 370 Sun dancer was yet another in the company’s evolving series of Sundancer models, each a little nicer than the last, Built on a fully cored hull, the Sundancer’s interior seems unusually spacious, the aft stateroom—with its U-shaped settee and removable table—is wide open to the main cabin. A sliding privacy door closes off the forward stateroom by night, and the salon sofa converts to a bed for extra guests. This is, in fact, a very well executed layout, and the built-in breakfast bar, faux granite countertop, and sculptured overhead panels are worthy of note. On the topside, the 370’s cockpit can easily handle a crowd, and a wet bar with sink, cooler, trash bin, and cutting board were standard. Additional features include an underwater exhaust system, a distinctive two-tier swim platform, good engine access, and very secure side decks. Twin Mercruiser 502 gas inboards cruise the 370 Sundancer at 22 knots (about 35 knots top).

The boat is listed as being a project, however it has great potential. As seen in the photos there is some minor surface rust, however the seller states the hull is structurally sound. The outdrives look to be in good operational condition and show no damage. The cabin is cluttered but shows no excessive wear and tear. The helm looks neat and functional. The bridge will need the arch installed and the deck could use new paint. The forward head needs cosmetic work. The interior needs some light cleaning and cosmetic repairs. We have not inspected the boat and recommends checking the boat for yourself or to hire a surveyor to verify the condition. Stock #391157 ***SALE PENDING*** Steel Hull Trawler!!! Has Great Potential!!! ***Please see the detailed video*** This Lotus Trawler 52 is a great shallow water boat. Is has been used most of its life in freshwater on the Great Lakes. The boat drafts 3'6" making it ideal for cruising where most boats its size cannot reach. The rugged all steel hull has a centerline keel for stability and to protect the outdrives from grounding. The stern of the hull flattens out providing an extra stabile platform. The boat is currently on the hard but was just motored down the waterway 50 miles to its current boatyard a few weeks ago. The boat has twin 2018 Volvo Penta D4 diesel engines matched with Volvo Penta Duo-prop outdrives. The engine room is located beneath the steps in the stern. With the 18-foot beam, there is plenty of room inside. A covered overhang from the massive upper deck surrounds the cabin, providing protection from rain and shade. A large auxiliary tank is mounted on the bow for extra fuel storage. The spacious cabin has plenty of windows and a sliding glass door to the aft, for easy entry. The helm is well laid out. The captain has twin Volvo Penta engine control LCD screens, a VHF, and a large Garmin 12" MFD overhead with radar. The boat has autopilot and electric steering. There are two cabins and two heads below. For convenience, there is an onboard washer/dryer. Three solar panels have been installed, and two new panels are still in boxes. The Kubota 11 kW generator provides plenty of power for all your electrical needs.

1990 Shannon Voyager 36 CURRENT PRICE IS A GUIDE. ALL OFFERS RESPECTFULLY CONSIDERED. General Description While she may look a little like a trawler, the Shannon 36 Voyager is built on a planning hull with the power to cruise efficiently at faster speeds than traditional, semi-displacement trawlers of her day (Grand Banks, Inland Gypsy, etc.). The modified-V hull of the Shannon, fully cored and relatively light for her size, is quick to plane, and her fine entry and well-flared bow make for a comfortable, dry ride in a chop. The two-stateroom, galley-up teak interior, features a lower helm station and built-in dinette in the salon, a sit-down shower in the head, and a queen bed in the forward stateroom. A hatch in the salon sole provides access to the engines. Like all trawler-style boats, the Shannon's salon dimensions are somewhat limited thanks to her wide side decks.The cockpit is very large with room for a small crowd. Topside, the fly bridge will seat six and includes a wet bar and adjustable cocktail table. Additional features include; a teak parquet cabin sole, teak exterior trim, radar mast, wide side decks, and a bow pulpit. Essentially a semi-custom boat, Twin 300 hp Cat 3126 diesels, provide a cruising speed of 16-18 knots. Actual Condition It is reported this vessel was stored in the insureds driveway, where they owned their own boat ramp. A local marina hauled it out after the storm, and placed it on blocks and stands. CSI went in a removed the hardtop fly bridge and bow rails for transport to our Mendon, MA location. See photos: CSI started the engines upon arrival and winterized. Sapir props are available at an additional cost for the vessel. EquipmentA trailer is not included in this sale.

Posted Over 1 Month

This is a 1983 Cape Dory 24' Trawler Project Boat. Cape Dory Yachts was founded in 1963 in East Taunton, Mass. Originally a sailboat company, by the end of the 70’s fuel crisis, Cape Dory decided to explore the powerboat market. They ended up being enormously successful, and built hundreds of powerboats of many sizes and configurations. Widgeon is the factory prototype, hull number 1, the first powerboat they ever built. Built in Taunton Mass, I have seen some evidence that she spent part of her life in Canada, then in Texas, and finally has been in Florida for many years. Although she has the lines of a Maine lobsterboat, she also comes with a mast and boom so that she can sail (all original). You will find more information, including a downloadable original sales brochure at the cape dory website: capedory.org/specs/cd24pwr.htm She has her original engine, a Yanmar 3HM 27hp, and uses about ½ gal/hr at a cruising speed of approximately 8 knots. She is the only CD24 trawler to have a Yanmar, as the general arrangement was changed by hull 002, and only a Westerbeke would fit in the new engine location. The engine does not have an accurate hour log, but starts and runs well, uses little oil, and has had much love since I have owned her, including a new injection pump, exhaust system, s/w pump, all hoses and much more. Even though her engine is in storage, I would be able to run the engine on blocks (demo) prior to a sale. I have owned her for five years, and have had her both in Pompano FL and Merritt Island Fl. When I bought her I surveyed her and knew she was going to need all of her interior wood replaced eventually because of rot. Her hull and house are fiberglass (very heavy layup) but her cabin, bulkheads and platform framing were all wood. Her platform deck is glass over plywood. I have removed her engine and systems, and nearly completed all demo of the framing and ply. During the process detailed construction pictures were taken of everything as well as measurements. All tabs were left in place for alignment. All she needs now is new wood put in, her platform deck glassed over, and to be fitted out. Her engine and all equipment have been stored, and go with the boat, and I can provide endless advice as I used to build and restore boats professionally. I am presently continuing to restore her even as I list her for sale, but the reason for selling is that my wife and I are selling our home on the water, and in moving inland I no longer want to keep a boat.
