Broker's Comments

CHB Trawlers were built and branded under a half dozen or more names and are ubiquitous on the used boat market. This CHB 42 design has been popular because of its spaciousness and versatility.

What makes this a special boat and one you want to buy are price and condition! The prior owner reported that he had invested over $250,000 in this boat. Since 2006 he restored, repaired, re-powered, upgraded and improved the boat constantly, continuing to add new navigational equipment as recently as the fall of 2015. It's large enough to be used comfortably as a live-aboard yet with a single recently-installed modern engine it's efficient and affordable to operate yielding 1.5 gallons per hour on a 2011 Alaska trip. The bottom on this vessel has been peeled and epoxy coated creating a smooth surface today. Similar brands include C&L Trawlers, Puget Trawlers, and Ponderosa. And she even compares well to a Grand Banks for space and amenities, at a much lower cost. It is also a new enough version to not be heavily loaded with exterior teak.

Taking into account condition, equipment and recent upgrades this boat is an extraordinary value!

“ Concerned about moorage? Where can I keep this boat”? Waterline Boats on Lake Union in Seattle will offer at least 3 months transitional moorage (at market rate) for this boat.

The vessel was surveyed in July of 2016. All findings requiring repair were fixed shortly after.

Concerned about moorage? For this vessel, Waterline Boats on Lake Union in Seattle will offer transitional moorage of at least 3 months (with market appropriate moorage rate) to a new buyer.
