You'll Be SHOCKED by This DIRT CHEAP & IMMACULATE Steel Trawler [Full Tour] Learning the Lines

- If you are considering The Great American Loop, this boat will interest you for several reasons. First, she’s economical….1.5 -2 gal/hour at 7-8 knots. New Westerbeke 7.5KW generator
Second, she’s very safe. When you run aground, (and you will !) the steel keel has a 1 inch shoe to protect you, plus the prop is enclosed in the deep draft of the center keel.
This is a ‘character boat’ inside and out. The Douglas fir interior has the craftsmanship of a master finish carpenter. Arched beams. Beautiful cabinets. Meanwhile the exterior signals Classic due to a sheer that comes out of working boats of 100 yrs ago.
So, she’s economical, safe, salty, and affordable. She was custom-built and completed in 2013 in Duluth MN, and then did the loop. For the past several yrs she has be cruising the Gulf and currently moored in Longboat Key near Sarasota. The owners are seriously considering another “liveaboard” and must sell the current boat to afford the next purchase. The original build cost was $330,000 (documented in Passage Maker), and available for half that cost. Great value for a reasonable price.

Learning the Lines is a channel about us, an average couple in our 20's, with big dreams to be sailing the world by the time we're in our 30's. We're not afraid to jump into anything, put in the work, and learn as we go. We started out with Somnium, an O'day 272, moved onto Freebie, an Endeavour 32, and now are focusing on sailboat tours and working full time as teachers while we save up for our next boat.

I've watched several of your videos and this Trawler is definitely the best pick of the lot. A steel hulled craft this well built and cared for is rare for the price they're asking.
What a cute little bargain of a boat. Perfect for a older couple who is ready to live on the water and enjoy life.
The fly bridge is an accident waiting to happen. Especially for older crew
@@chevy4x466 Not the entire fly bridge, just the ladder. Buying a boat for only $150k, you have some money left over to modify some stairs.
@@zedwpd simple concept. I have to admit, I never considered it. U r right, just make the stairs safer, u have a perfect boat
Bargain, you can buy a boat that is newer and better than this for 165K. No way in hell I would spend 160k and have to spend another 10k per year for the crap that is going to break on a 70 year old boat.
Love this well built little trawler. I’m sure it’s sold by now.
What a lovely boat. It has such a comfortable look and feel about it. It’s just asking for an appreciative owner.
Lovely craftsmanship, looks like a great Looper boat. Noticed that they used an Atlantic Towers tower-in-a-box arch to support the aft end of the hard bimini. Pretty clever. Looks like a similar sized Back Cove downeaster is docked next door. By comparison, that of the same vintage would sell for around $750K, so you're right, this one is a relative bargain.
It would be a nice lil on water condo for weekend getaways. I'd love this for the Bahamas.
Retired and have a lil money would love a houseboat even if it never left the slip
Such a nice boat, and the price is stunning. But, I think it might only be for really seasoned sailors. One small engine, 40 feet long, no thrusters to help you maneuver. I am not complaining, mind you, I just think it might not be a great choice for a newby. But for someone that knows the ropes, it is a beauty.
It’s nice to see a well designed boat that’s easy to maintain but most importantly fit for purpose
If I actually travelled, I'd love that beast. I got lucky and found a 46' Silverton aft cabin for a song and for summers on the lake, it's awesome. Definitely not in the caliber of this vessel. But she's a good home on the water. I grew up on the salt and all I miss is the smell, lol!!
No mention of heating and cooling, unless I missed it.
This is exactly what I want in a couple of years. It’s absolutely perfect for my needs. This is a boat that you could operate for several years and sell for 90 % of what you paid. Extremely economical!
I absolutely love the trawler and tug look. Especially if you can get ahold of a good conversersion of 1. They just feel much more secure in many ways. The only thing I don't care about is the color on the hull.
did I miss something, whats the draft and how much fuel does she carry?
I wish I could afford this trawler... looks like a beautiful ship!
No, she's ugly. The flybridge is totaly wrong for the line of the ship. That said, sometimes ugly is beauty, and for this money this ship is gorgeous.
Wanna go half on it i keep it 11 months u get 1
Solid boat but kinda not what I was expecting for the interior. ICW cruiser made of steel? don't have to worry about hitting logs! I didn't see any blown closed cell foam in the engine space. I'd be wary of a steel boat of this age without proper interior hull insulation. Condensation will rust a beautiful looking steel boat from the inside out.
Good point. I wonder if running a dehumidifier or two 24/7 down below would help?
@@Davidcallard a green ceramic primer that will permanently prevent corrosion and mold. Plus it is fire resistant to 1000 degrees f.
It bonds to steel. Used by Chevron and BP.
Made in NC. I play golf with the owner and founder
@edleonard4183 what is this miracle paint called? FYI, I'm writing this from my home in Brisbane, Australia.
You never mentioned the draft,weight or bridge clearance.
@@edleonard4183yeah what's it called?
That anchor needs a good 30 feet of chain at a minimum. Beautiful boat though! Great video too!
That’s a lovely vessel.
Wow, what a beautiful craft!!
Holy moly!! I love it!! Thanks for the video!!
Why did I not see this video earlier! What a piece I would of bought it in a heart beat.
Very nice, well kept, bright.
Thank you for letting us see this cute boat. I would love to wake up each morning and see the sun coming up with a cup of strong black coffee iny hand and a fishing pole in my other hand. One day i hope i don't have to use my wheelchair and get my legs back so i can walk. This is keeping me from getting a home on the water. When I do tho, the fish better hide and they will be trembling when they hear my name. I was once called a fish magnet because I out fished everyone else that went fishing with us 95% of the time. Yes it can be sad for others to catch small perch size of a child's hand, then i catch catfish over 3 foot or bigger than 36 inch fish. Tip for keeping live bait fresh and alive, we used the inside metal tubs from a washing machine from a laundry mat because those huge tubs have thick walls with round holes and we weld a metal lid on top with a good thick door that can be locked by a big brass padlock. Plus we welded on eye hooks so we could secure it to dock or tree. We never lost it, not even during the floods we had. The bigger the tub the more fish it can hold. Im not sure what salt water will do to those metal tubs in salt water tho. But they do great job in fresh water.
One thing though - shame about the cabin layout. It really is a couples boat since the spare beds/bunks can’t be closed off from the galley.
Myself Love the vessel am well learned on a single screw vessel, but I think for many would be a tough buy.
It would need bow and stern thrusters.
Beautiful boat.
We have had several boats in salt water. They were high maintenance. I can't imagine keeping up with steel.
if it is bonded correctly and galvenonic insulated it should not be and issue
@@kevinhoffman8214 You are talking about electrolysis, I'm talking salt.
@@oldmanrock7542 my apologies
Great boat. just need it to have longer legs and get me from San Diego to Hawaii. She's not designed for that but still a great boat.
For the ammo can organizer one in the car would be great one can first aid one can emergency blankets and small tarps one for a fire kit and one for emergency food and snacks
How much fuel does she hold along with water?
Critical question right here
There's a phone number that every one can call and they will answer every one questions about the boat
Still no answer but I no its 2 dam much its a real hog.
I wonder how much it would cost to drop a new engine generator into it complete?
Curious about the fuel tankage/range....
That is a beautiful boat well kept with my owning Sunday. Am I retirement days?
Very nice boat. 😊
I love fishing trawlers, most likely these or a nordic tug are what I would go with. Nothing fancy but can still be a nice outing yacht and workhorse when needed. This one regardless of price is quite unique. Colors seem quite dated and more set in 70s-80s style. Took me twice to realize she was built in 2013! Also for that price the engines better have low hours and the hull better be in great shape. Alot of abuse can happen from 10 years. Would definitely look for better values out there than this one. Plus I live in the Great Lakes so most likely this hasn't seen fresh water.
Engine singular
Thanks for the great video
Please included asking price upfront in video. I often watch on TV and description is not available.
Looks like the engine room takes up more volume than the main cabin.
I know that I am singular in this but I do not like the interior design. Reminds me of the internals on a motor home. I would have to remodel it straightaway.
I know this has sold but if not let me know. Looking for something to live in in Memphis
I would snap that up. But I’m in the Uk.
What is the draft? Would zinc plating be used on a craft like this?
How many gallons of fuel it can carry and how many tanks it have? AC and heater? Fuel range on full tank?
Super Looper !
You never mentioned the weight, draft or bridge clearance.
safe would be if it had a toe rail... you can easily go under than rail and into the drink in rough weather.
Why is the Air Draft left off the dimensions?
Thx Key West mike
It’s beautiful. Why so cheap?
I love the lack of polished hand-rails
When does a trawler become a yacht?
Won't last long at that price for sure. Nice boat.
is she still available ?
Say asking price in description please
Is available for shipping overseas ? Taiwan specifically
You exit the aft the way you came up it....not backwards
Hi, nice boat... where is it, and has it been sold?
Thank you
Where is this boat,is she new?
Well, if the boat is taken care of, that's 1/5 the price. DEAL😮
How many hours on that engine?
Did it ever sell?
very nice
thx
My apartment note is 3,000 a month can you do better if I buy it?
160K IS A EXCELLENT PRICE
the outside hand rails a bulwark.
There are a number of smart caveats in the comments. I didn't get far enough down to see if this was mentioned: that ladder to the upper deck is a concern. For young adults with good knees and strong arms and a good sense of balance it is 'just OK.' But for children, older adults, or anyone who has had two or more stiff drinks it looks like a genuine safety hazard. One slip and you could end up cracking your spine against a hard rail at the stern.
And you know the showy types or the drinking types will be launching themselves off that top deck; I just hope they clear the structures below. Also, am I the only person who thinks this boat is cramped for a 44-footer? There are unusual things about the layout that the original owners must have loved but that seem awkward to me. My final nit picking is about the lack of toe-rails to brace your feet against in a blow. To me this is more of a lake houseboat than a touring boat, especially with its single small engine.
Value = $98,000
Half price for this yacht isn't crazy, but not "dirt cheap"
How much
Any mention of the price of this boat?
Haves & have nots differ on the term DIRT CHEAP
A captains chair on wheels might be problematic.
look again, there is no wheels on the chair.
Google the difference between salon and saloon.
Great tour, but we want Randi!
how to contact you about thus boat?
That boat either doesn't have any hanging lockers, or if she did, you didn't show them.
Nice but what was the price
Where does dirt cheap fit in? What is the price? What a waste of time!
@@johnphillips6750
How can he show a video with NO PRICE? He must be trying to buy it. Not much room to be fair. Great for two.
$160,000👍✌️
Thanks
Damn , expensive
What's the price
What's the price ?
Asking price of 159.500 is realy cheap. In europe it would be 50-80.000 more....
It ain't "dirt cheap" especially the first time you have paint it. Steel is great when heavy built for commercial use but suck for pleasure boats unless you have bags of money, or like rust streaks.
I could live happily on this one
Much better on your presentations, but you're still moving a lot back and forth with the camera. Seriously consider getting a tripod with a fluid head for SLOW and FEW pans, and replace most of your on-site commentary with scripted commentary.
330? Lemme think about it.
i have recurring nightmares about drowning. why does youtube keep recommending boats in my feed? google, if you're listening, and i know that you are. stop it.
Lols
160 thou....10 bucks gas or more to go 7 miles at 5 bucks a gallon...cool....
Can anyone answer this question? ive asked it a dozen times but never get an answer, why in the US do these boats have the helm on the right? international maritime law we drive on the right so the helm is on the left, we never see this in the UK .
Asking Price: US $159,900 not too bad but with being an election year most people who bye in this price range and this time in the season are going to waite.
35k usd cash, ill meet the owner today or tom
Dale pelotú. 😅
Buitaful Trawler BUT ACESS TO THE FLY BRIDGE! A LADDER ALMOST 90 DEGREES HOW WOULD GET FOOD AND REFREASHMENTS UP THERE ????
COUPLE OF BEERS 🍺/🍹/ 🍷YOU STILL HAVE TO MAKE IT BACK DOWN THE LADDER 🥴😵😵💫
That fly bridge is SO ugly on that boat, what a shame.
No doors for the bedrooms.?No price =click bait.
FUEL TANK GALLONS ...WATER MAKER,,,,,RANGE.??????
im currently looking into getting a boat to live on i want somthing decent sized can anyone maybe add me on somthing and give me some tips and such im from the uk and we might have different laws and requirements
No, you don't need $3 Million. No, you don't need $2 Million. No, you don't need $1 Million. Truth be told the only thing you need to do to retire is to quit working. I retired almost 8 years ago, my wife followed 2 years later. We both retired at age 62. So far we have not used any of our retirement money. How is that possible? Simple, when we retired we retired debt free. Your ability retire depends more on how much you owe than it does how much you have. You have a lifetime to plan. Just remember failing to plan is planning to fail.
ok sarasota tim
You're generation had cheap houses and decent pensions and your boating lifestyle is effectively being funded by my generation.
Enjoy your few good years but stop giving people advice please.
Here's my plan. NO MORE BOATS!
No find solitude in overthrowing the monkey hybrid run western society
@philclarke7712 yeah, we didn't have the internet. Lost your soul to the beast? Nothing new.
Is the boat still for sale? What is the asking price?
Wow! I saw this trawler out in Sarasota Bay, absolutely stunning.
Great looking boat to do the Loop. Thx for the tour. Good price point.
I'm in California looking for a liveabord, and this looks like such a great deal that I'm starting to think about the Panama Canal...
$2000.00 bucks or close...
What a classic beauty. Perfect for a liveaboard or either version of The Loop. Vid was very nicely done...kudos.
