Broker's Comments

VIRTUAL TOUR - VIDEO - 80 TO 100 PHOTOS - FULL SPECS CAN BE VIEWED OF THIS Glaser 30 Workboat / Crabber!
Built by Glaser Marine Systems in Kingston, WA. This boat served for years as a Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) workboat / enforcement boat.

She's an attractive boat and appears to be solidly built, and has a notably large and open cockpit that is nearly 13 ft long. Three Freeman hatches in the forward cockpit provide access to three large holds. The center hold is ~150 gallons with the two outboard holds slightly smaller in volume.

Recent work includes a new hydraulic steering system, new exterior non-skid, and new bottom paint and anodes. The two 8D batteries were replaced in 2021.

The interior is practically laid out with a helm station, head compartment, settee, workbench, and V-berth.

A number of the items, including navigational electronics, radios, and the hydraulic pot puller were removed when the WDFW decommissioned and sold this boat, but a large radar arch remains with numerous mounts for antennas and would serve as a blank slate for a new electronics suite.

I think this is a sharp looking boat that offers a good balance of deck space, storage, and cabin space. Though a little unfinished in some respects (lack of electronics / galley) these could easily be added. This boat would be equally well suited for recreational and/or commercial activities. Obvious uses include fishing, pot fishing, diving, charters, or adventuring.
