    • 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).
    For Sale ads MUST include:
    • 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.
    All ads should also include ALL the following:
    • Pertinent maintenance and condition information
    • Exterior picture or pictures
    • Interior picture or pictures (boats)
    For maximum impact & exposure, it is suggested the Ad Title include: Year, Manufacturer, Model, Length, Price, and Location or at the very top of the ad body.

  • 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.

Located in Port Aransas, Tx. Price $84, 500. Details and pictures coming soon. Please message us for more info. 1987 Jefferson Sundeck Motor Yacht- Classic style w/wood interior walls and wood parquet floors.

We purchased “Miss’n Texas” in 1996 n the Chesapeake Bay area and cruised there on weekends and vacations until we moved aboard full time in 1999. For the next 3 years we were on the move…as far northeast as Nantucket and Martha’s Vineyard and as far south as the Jumento Islands in the southern Bahamas and as far southwest as Brownsville, Texas. After purchasing our home in Port Aransas, Tx in Island Moorings (where she berths in the canal behind our house) we have made more extended cruises back to the Bahamas with our dog Esther. Miss’n Texas has been in our family 23 years. She is dependable and comfortable whether you are long range cruising, setting in a marina, or on the hook. We hope you enjoy and love her as much as we have! Bruce, Kathy & Esther Reynolds

Engine room and inverter

I just purchased 87 42’ sundeck. I would love to see pics of your battery placements in engine room and where you placed your inverter. I plan to outfit mine similar to yours. I have the original 2 size 8d battery and I 4d battery for gen set. Would love to see a pic of your battery set up
 
I put the Main Eng battery just beside the exhaust box in the back of the engine room outboard (at the back of the fuel tanks), the generator and 4X 8 D(house) are under the seats(port) in the galley, the inverter and chargers are by the fresh water pressure tank foward and stbd of the engine room
 
I believe my 46 has more room in front of the engines than the 42 does. My configuration is a d8 in front of each engine. The starboard battery is lined up across the boat. The port battery is line up front to aft. Outside of the port engine battery is my 4 lt16s 6volt house batteries. Between LT16s and port boat wall is the generator battery a grp 27. My charger/inverter is mounted under the aft banquette seat in the galley eating area. I originally had inverter mounted on engine room wall directly over the generator. Inverter got too hot there and continually gave me problems. After moving it to present location the problems went away. Good luck If I can be of any help let me know.
 
Congrats on your new boat. Have fun getting everything up to snuff.
