Want To Buy: 40’ plus trawler project

[Riverbumm]

I’m on the search for a 40’ plus trawler project. Aft cabin, twin engine, and mostly complete that isn’t just completely trashed in the Houston area preferably but might even travel to Louisiana for the right deal. Thanks In advance. It took a pandemic to get my mind set on my dreams. No better time to start than the now!

Welcome to the forum, River Bumm.

What's your budget range for purchase?

[Riverbumm]

15k or less would be ideal. I’m very mechanically inclined and not afraid to work on anything so I’m not afraid of the work.

With that budget, you should add, "im not afraid of a lifetime of work ." Really , if you want a project boat, there are plenty out there you won't have to pay anything for.

I’ve seen some nice ones in the area for that or less I just am never the first to get to them lol.

I know of one with two good lehman diesels about 100 miles of panama city fl. . maybe too far for you.
