Hi Woody, we have a few interested, but will let you know if they don’t pan out. Thanks for the interest.

Some more pictures from today’s winterizing, before it heads inside for the season.

Yes still for sale, but just got hauled out of the water last week. If you’re local it can be seen at the Erie Macedon Marina, NY (inside storage).

Here are some more pictures from this year

Yes it was born and bred in the PNW. If you search Maple Bay among the old threads ( 2016-2015) there were/are(?) a few MB owners.

Hmmm didn’t catch that. It’s 70 gallons. (Will fix that).

That’s the trailer capacity. Boat displaces 10k. 😊

It’s a Loadmaster tri-axel trailer GVWR is 12,500.

Yes, the range is one of the amazing perks. We easily get 10 mpg. We travel slow but extremely far…hence the boat’s name. 😁

Another pic of interior.

Nope a design Maple Bay. The boats were built in British Columbia and designed for Inland and Coastal Cruising by the Maple Bay Boat Company. The Flush Deck forward of the Wheelhouse provides standing headroom forward and an open feel below. These boats are reminiscent of the historic Lake Union...

More pictures,

We are selling our beloved Maple Bay Trawler Patience. It’s time for us to move on to more sedentary pursuits. The trawler comes with a three axel Loadmaster trailer. See this PDF link for complete details https://tinyurl.com/Maple-bay-1987 Or file added below. Boat is located on Western Erie...

We’ve been using the T-Mobile (home internet) all summer, up and down the canal and Lake Erie. Works great even while underway…plus cheapest option we’ve found around…super fast speeds. I keep wondering when they are going to squash traveling usage. :socool:

Really all you need is a fairly heavy duty sewing machine (and lots of needles, in case of breakage)…just about any old style Brother or Singer will do for typical canvas jobs. The key to using what would normally be a household machine is to go slow and have the correct and sharp needle for the...

Aquafarm’s wife here… just to clarify, I did not call my hubby an idiot… I suggested he ask TF the question that he’s been wrestling with all day… I saw the reply first and called into the boat “did you check the back?” He’s mumbling, “yes I did” as I hear him move stuff and then…a loud...

Thank you Ansley S. Thought I checked that one but it was the one next to it.( coaxial?) you made my day. Don’t tell anyone what an idiot I was because my wife already did just that. Thanks again for your quick reply. Bless you!

Trying to add NMEA 2000 backbone to Garmin gpsmap 742xs. All ports on unit are 8 pin female but backbone is 5 pin female. Is there a cable or adapter available to make this work. I already have Garmin radar working and sonar by using Garmin adapter but would like add more using NMEA 2000. I...

Congrats, What about keeping the mast but modify it with a tabernacle or hinge? We have a short mast for radar, antenna etc and the mast folds to allow low clearance passage or transporting and storing the boat,

Boy do I second that! What a total fiasco of a movie, and definitely don’t want him as a shipmate, even if he is Robert Redford. ?

So very sorry that you had to uproot yourselves. But better to get out while you can. Best of luck for your future. I hope this insanity and heartache ends soon.

We had a lovely long fall trip on the Erie Canal. Here we are docked in Pittsford NY. https://www.trawlerforum.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=122225&stc=1&d=1634583955

It’s for uncharted waters, areas on maps https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Here_be_dragons Our Maple Bay came with the name Patience, very apt since our average speed is between 5-6 knts.

Only two pleasure boats have ever made the northwest passage from Maine to Alaska. https://www.yachtingworld.com/features/jimmy-cornell-transits-the-north-west-passage-70357 https://www.boatinternational.com/destinations/an-insiders-guide-to-navigating-the-northwest-passage--41287

Howdy neighbor (fellow Midlakes boater on Patience). We’ve always admired Penguin. Sorry to hear of the hip and knee issues. Good luck with the sale and the ops.
