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.

Wife and I toured this vessel the other day, it is in excellent condition, has Cummings engines and is priced at 360k. I suspect the boat will sell closer to 300-325k. While not for us, anyone looking for a solid mid 40 ft trawler should take a look.
What make and model is she?

Guys these boats collect helium 3 in various grades of softness 63 foot the softest. And from 64 feet up is hard helium. Love these boats show's and learning every day. Love boats people.
Trawler yachts are just so practical. If I owned one, it would just be my house.
Nice price for a well maintained yacht. This would make a fantastic live aboard. Thank you Jordan.
I Love Your Detailed Posts. My Wife And I Are Searching For A Great Used Trawler In Florida or Perhaps OHio (Lake Erie). What WE Love Is That You SHOW The Price......No Guessing or Checking. You Present Well And Describe Very Well. We Are Headed To East Coast Of Florida Again In June. Thank You For Your Video's And Descriptions.
For a small boat that seems VERY roomy. Great use of space! LIke the layout, too.
For a small boat, it would be perfect for a single guy or couple starting out if they both love the water. I like boats the best for if you want to pull anchor and move to another area you can. You buy a house on land, it's there in one place. I liked this video and think you did a good job showing it to us. Thanks for sharing.
Lovely boat, well looked after that is both spacious and compact at the same time.
Great boat. Great video, from the start to the walkthrough and the specs/info sheet. Subscribed!😄
I've toured several OAs and their air conditioning is outstanding. Luxury living on the sea.
Nice little boat . The woodwork looks magnificent !
What a comftorble looking little live aboard for a single or couple with a stateroom for guest excursions.
that is one of the nicest trawlers that i have ever seen; depending on how much clearance it has it could be good for the great loop.
According to another post she has already done the loop.
Nice boat with plenty of performance for a trawler ,the salon is nice and large but at the expense of being able to walk outside bow to stern while docking. The second state room is a nice feature but the cramped engine room make this boat excellent for a younger family with plenty of flexibility to get in the tighter spaces.
Great video! A very thorough walk-through. (I had to laugh at the final drone flyover where I watched the bilge pump suck the water back up! ;)) If I could suggest anything, it would be to spend more time opening the various hatches to access the mechanical systems. I'd like to have seen the floor in the main salon pulled up to see what engine access looks like from there. (I suspect that would be the "normal" method of performing maintenance - 'cause this old guy isn't crawling in on his hands and knees.)
I would guess that water you can see being pumped overboard on the starboard side, is Air conditioning discharge not a bilge pump running.
Gorgeous boat and great walk through. As much of a hassle as lack of easy exterior passage up the side decks likely is, the gain in salon width is astonishing. Would love this boat.
Thank you so much for sharing this awesome boat with us. It's a truly beautiful boat or home on the water with a different front yard every time you pull anchor and drop it or tie up at the new place you want to visit. That is why people buy boats and yachts so they can go see new places. May i suggest one very important thing to everyone who's about ready to go live their dreams and purchase or lease a boat. Get yourself a big thick paper map and draw out all the places you travel to, an mark the date and important things in a notebook to keep with the map. This way when you and your spouse are older you can easily show your family all the wonderful places and tell them about the people you got to meet all because you took the chance and went to live your dreams on your own floating house and never regretted it. Because we only live together once they say. I don't think that's correct, because i believe true love is like a really strong magnet and pulls the two people together if they are true soulmates. We are connected by an invisible force like gravity. We can't see it but knows it's there working. Share the Love and remember, Love is like glue that holds everything together in our Universe. That is so true.
Hey @Learning the Lines... ignore the Haters... your review was excellent and OA makes great boats... especially for the price. This pocket yacht cannot be compared to the boats the Haters mentioned at twice the price... or more. Haters will always be Haters... they just lurk around and were probably Bullys in grade school and never grew up!
Find a Bruckman 50 to review. A Sailboat with everything you are asking for. I look forward to that review.
I learned a new term today: coaming. Thank you very much! Beautiful boat as well.
I’m assuming that the link was removed due to this boat being sold? If so, congratulations on the fast turnaround. Your video was excellent.😊
For a looper, the maximum overhead clearance that limits the height of your boat above the water is 19’ 6”. This boat is 23', so it will not fit under the Chicago bridge, unless the mast folds down.
That’s what I was thinking.
There are a few places it might not make. I don't see any sign that the mast folds. Do you have to go under the Chicago bridge? I was under the impression you did not.
@@kenttomaselli8984 "The lowest unavoidable fixed bridge on the Great Loop is currently charted at 19.6’ and is located at mile 300.6 on the Illinois River. The boat you intend to use for the Loop must be able to clear that bridge. Some members with taller boats are able to get under 19.6’ by lowering antenna, radar arches, etc." - America's Great Loop Cruisers' Association
the boat will get down to 16 ft has already looped
Met this boat in Joliet, IL, just after it came through Chicago.
I am leaving to crew an Ocean Alexander in a few days. It should be awesome.
That’s a beautiful boat in beautiful condition
Thank you for giving the listing price. That is one of my complaints watching videos of tours.
I’m just starting to get an idea of what’s out there. What could I afford. I see different boats and NOBODY gives asking prices. I go to the site to look up and they are SOLD. So no way to find out, even what it sold for!
How does a person “shop” if you don’t know what prices are? I can look at houses AND asking prices.
I know the price could change, duh. But at least I know if it’s in my range!
The fitting above and left of the sink is a port light. the large things are windows.
Lol. Yes I don't think that port light does justice when describing those big beautiful windows. I really like how the main salon is designed with all those big windows. One of the few things that I would want to change is to have a bit better walkways that run along both the starboard and port sides. They wouldn't have to be the entire length of each side, just enough so that that you can safely walk along each side. They could even be something that flips out of the way. In rough seas of course you make them a no go zone if you don't want to lose one of your deckhands.
How do you lower the tower with the dinghy in that position? And what's the max height with it lowered?
I would do a custom couch where the two chairs are in the salon. It is a nice vessel.
Have to say, I prefer my 1983 Hatteras. I can stand up in the engine room which makes repairs when needed much easier
Nice tour
Nice looking boat
Great layout
Gorgeous
Nice, but what year/where built ???
That's the kind of boat I wanna buy one day to open a charter business
so many activities!
This is definitely a nice vessel but wondering what that door/cabinet is on the stairs leading to the cabin area
Nice boat! But isn't 23 feet too tall for the loop? I thought the limit was 19'6"?
Nice very nice 👌 👍
Not gonna loop with an air draft of 23'! Is the mast hinged or something?
I think it’s a great boat. Personally I get tired of all the overly complicated boats. I see a simple cruiser alone the Pacific Coast lines and Chanel Islands. Not overly expensive and nice for having as hangout and getaway boat.
Just FYI this boat is too tall for the loop. Max is 19'-3" or so . Beautiful boat. Thanks!
Great, boat.❤ Great video. ❤ About, the price, please? Thanks!! All the best!! 😉👍
the Alaska Trawler is a robust design. I imagine it would be the only design in this range I would care to be in in an open storm
Somehow I missed the make and model in the video. What is she?
Well it is very comparable to a Nordhaven 43 from afar - priced at only about half to a third of what an N43 would cost- so I can see the appeal. Personally though it wouldn’t work for me for two deal breaker reasons: 1) the fact that there is no side access without going through the main cabins - this will make short handed docking a challenge if anything goes wrong. 2) and more importantly, you need to be a spelunker to access the engines -no way I can get there and not be claustrophobic- this will really be a problem for any major maintenance and will make routine checks a nightmare. Maybe if you are younger and that crawling is not a problem, but for me it’s sadly a deal breaker.
The floor panels in the salon lift out/up so actually you could stand in that engine room centerline for pre-checks......No real need to crawl.
@@rickhaigwood1079 ok that makes it a much less head scratching design
Less money than a Nordhaven for sure, but that extra $$ gets you a real bluewater boat with doors and hatches that are water tight and windows that will stand up to big water. But for the money, these are great boats, even with the limited side deck access and short engine room with the sole panels in place. And William Smith is spot on in his comment above. no way you get through Chicago on the loop at 23ft air draft. I looked at the mast and there's no hinge. If you can install one on such a substantial mast, you should be able to make it. But my main issue with this post is that the narrator failed to emphasize the main feature of this particular boat. It appears to be in outstanding shape for a 23 year old boat. The floors and walls are stunning, and at less than 2350 hours, the engines are just hitting their stride. I didn't see this boat in person like Mcnaught Americas did, but I think it will go closer to the asking price.
Unless you have a serious aversion to it,a retrofit for the engine room doesn't appear to be overly difficult. It might might not be 100% as good as if it was already done when this floating home was manufactured but at my first look I didn't see anything that would completely rule out doing a retrofit to create some more overhead space to make maintenance considerably easier. I would want the blueprints before attempting anything of course. A friend of mine had a similar issue with his live aboard and was able to do a retrofit job with relative ease.
@@richardwestmoreland4796 interesting- I never considered that - makes sense now that you mention it - will need to look into what would need to be done to make the engine room accessible
After traveling some 10k miles on the ocean I’d be concerned about over head grab rails very important while underway it’s a clean boat but crawling into that engine room underway could be problematic it’s a nice coastal boat but Selene beats this hands down
7:35 shin wreckers
Damn! I just looked at the price and realised I could afford that lovely thing! I would have to sell my house but, good riddance. I would absolutely love living and wandering around in it. Just a shame it's half a planet away from here and those big diesels would eat A LOT of fuel to get here, IF I was even game to try that. The fact they've got over 2,000 hours on each isn't a killer since if maintained well they'll last damn near forever but, they are big and for my type of normal use, I wouldn't need that much.
That is a gorgeous boat and extremely well kept, so much so, I actually thought it was new at first.
How much is this yacht being sold at?
These trawlers are like RVs of the ocean. Take the family down to the Bahamas in an Airstream
Considering you want to do engine checks while on your way, it would be best to not be claustrophobic in a loud and hot engine room.
If you have issues with being claustrophobic my suggestion is to probably just stay on terra firma. A boat is no place for the claustrophobic. See you at the the next port honey.....lol.
I wish boats for sale posted how many SF of living space it has. Like Apt. Just so you can get a ruff idea. If you plan to move into a boat.
I thought that the video was very good at giving viewers a good idea about the square footage. Prior to UA-cam it was much harder to visualize what the living space was like.
@@richardwestmoreland4796 The Video itself was good. So you have a good idea about the square footage of the boat. So let the rest of us know. You did not include that in your commint I see.
Nice troler
Very nice vessel, when is she going to be lowered in price? I estimate the value of this about 300 K.
engine HP and Vessel performance stats! GPH Range Tankage Totals. etc etc etc. That's what we always want to see! every time.
Love this boat! _but_ it's so small it doesn't need that head in the master bdrm. I would do away with the toilet and sink and turn it into a larger shower and do away with the tiny shower in the common head. I really dislike tiny showers, they make me feel claustrophobic and are hard to use.
Do this Boat w/2-Cummins, what is the Cruise Speed at 2200-2300 RPM's. 15-18knots l hope
Semi-displacement hull, so they cruise at around 10 knots.
@@svechappe6075
So, 10knots at Cruise, is there a max speed or nop
@@JohnEBurns About 12.5 knots top speed, but that’s running at wide open throttle. The 10 knots cruising speed is at 75% of wide open. We crossed paths with a couple that had one of these and were doing the Great Loop and they confirmed those figures. Nice boat, by the way.
How to contact into on this boat
what is cost range?
I don't think you can make the loop. But I would like to know the asking price
It says $360K in the description.
I have listened and watched alot of boat tours and it seems to me you were much more of a salesman than a tour guide. Also what is that constant
droaning hum in evry cabin , that would get to me in just a few hours requiring Bose ear protectors with quiet technology or a new gen set.
I owned a gb and marine trader I'd go Kady or nord ocean or bering
Did this boat sell?
It has "mirrors on the ceiling", but does it have "pink champagne on ice"?
And she said...
Only if it is christened as the Hotel California.
Obviously it has twin Diesels-but what kind (Cummins?) what horsepower, what maximum speed (you need in emergency? What size generators?
It does say
@@leonperry123 Yes but what horsepower? ISB could be anywhere from 160hp-550hp!
@@Tchristman100 You obviously didn't watch the video right to the end or you simply weren't paying attention. It was listed near the end of the video.
For future reference, a shower on a boat is called the “Rain Locker”…
I really get a kick out of those that feel everyone should have a comprehensive understanding of all the vernacular that those who take to the seas use. You might get labelled as a landlubber when you call a "rain locker" a shower but I've been called much worse. I personally could not care less if anyone hasn't passed this imaginary test of what type of language to use when onboard a vessel any larger than a dinghy and for some probably any larger than an inner tube.....lol. I have unfortunately been onboard a vessel when the so called captain didn't know shit from Shinola about operating said vessel yet he sure talked a nice game. As long as people are taking to the waters wherever that might be there will be those who might never know much of the vernacular that goes with it. I guess surprising to some those that don't speak the language are just lucky that they haven't gone to Davey Jones locker because it. I'm 66 years of age and somehow I have managed to keep my head above water(no pun intended) with just a rudimentary understanding of a sailors vernacular. Probably just luck.....lol.
Defecation Occurs. Retired Merchant Marine here. Been married 40 yrs because I’ve been underway for 20 of them.
❤❤❤
Never heard of a mast referred to as an "instrument tower". You are doing a good job but i recommend you spend more time describing the pilot house controls, fuel and water capacity. Watch a few other guys and pick up some pointers. Keep at it, i know you will do well.
NICE!!!! TULA'S ENDLESS SUMMER SOLD A SIMILAIR TRAWLER FOR $89,000.00 THOUGH!!!!!!!!
I recall Tula's boat was built in the 1970's. From looking at the videos the kids did a great job of turning a $100 boat into a nice cruiser, and I think the broker thought they could get over $100k but they wanted to conclude a sale quickly so they could move forward with the new catamaran.
The design is not so clean or uncluttered as that on a Grand Banks or Nordhavn. The galley seemed a bit dated, but could be easily upgraded. The television being placed where it is seemed to take space away in the galley area when the separate area to the left that could be used for that. The use of space did seem a bit hit and miss which is a shame. There’s bits to like but overall it could be a better boat, it appears to be a busy boat and trying to do too much with the result being corners are cut. The Portuguese Bridge was ok but why no door? I don’t think I would want to spend more than a few days on this before it drove me mad. Sadly someone has tried to be clever and this boat is the result, it doesn’t excel at anything and will leave you with more questions than answers. The Baby Nordhavn 41 would be a better choice in my view and it would cross the Atlantic. Another alternative would be a Grand Banks 41/43 Heritage Europa, not an exploration vessel but well designed and thought out across all areas. It makes me wonder why folk settle for just average.
You sure do whine a lot.
Budget….
Why don’t boats this nice have ventilation hoods over the galley stovetops to reduce the stink of grease and food in the living space?
Nice haircut
My taste exceeds my bank account.
Previous owners must have had their dog(s) aboard or little kids All the safety netting.
I own a 2 story 3bdrm home and I don't even use 1/2 the house.. Just me & 2 dogs
Ohh 0:48 youd like the monkeyville
I think it's like 100k? Obo
Too tall for a loop. Does that mast fold down?
Hawse Hole
"Good access" LMAO
Jordan you find really good boats but you lack a bit on describing the systems and technical specs. I hope you teke this as constructive criticism and maybe give us the info?
I would suggest that you shorten the amount of monologue when most of us know what it is we are looking at
Man! You missed so much! No demo on how the dining table upfolds to double the table top space. Not a comment on the gauges or what they do above the cockpit. No horsepower rating, cruise speed, diesel tanks capacities. Guess I won't be back.
Portuguese bridge?
the wall in front of the pilot house. It's usually supposed to go all the way across, sometimes with a swinging door in the center.
The engine room is way too tight to work around 😢
What sort of engine room space are you looking for? What sub 50ft boat meets this requirement?
This engine room has above average space.
Price please?
It says $360,000 in the description.
regatta
Should have said, "You got mirrors on the ceiling....and pink champagne on ice."
You're mistaking this vessel for the one that is similar and christened as the Hotel California. Captain Don Henley at the helm.
She’s a pretty old gal for 360k, especially no sir walks !
Side
I don’t see how anyone with a two person crew could do the loop or dock this boat safely and easily. You have the pilot and another person running thru the salon back and forth just to get it tied up.
Agreed.It's design does leave one wanting for more room along both the portside and starboard side to get back and forth.
They never tell you the price...
Please search for any yacht for free I need a yacht
Yet to watch the vid so am jumping the gun a bit but WHY Oh WHY dont the yacht UA-camrs start with telling us what the boat is made of, seriously. One of the most important bits of information totaly ignored, so often. Although we are told that the boat feels very "boaty", very important of course.
Spacious inside yes, but to sacrifice walk around gunnel NO THANKS.
I'm of the opposite opinion. No walk around gunnel is definitely a design flaw but I am already scheming a retrofit to alleviate that issue. Where there is a will, there is a way. I love the spacious feel that the main salon in particular has.
It is beatifull but i prefer sailling boats.
Automatically a lose if you have to go back into the cabin to get from the stern to the bow.
Nothing annoys me more than someone posting a boat on UA-cam and not disclosing the price, only after reading the comments did I find out it’s 360 K which for a 24-year-old vessel with only 38 feet in my opinion is way overpriced !
Nothing annoys me more than entitled people who lack the common sense to read a video description(where the price was clearly stated) before watching the entire thing and then blame others for what little sense they are clearly lacking.
@@genesishep LOL 😂that's the first thing I did, look at the description.... Wow. Some people's children!
Enging make and size??? Generator size??? Is there a water maker??? People want to know these. Hang in there.
Is this big enough to have good time and party with a girl and few other couples ?
You sure like to say "down below" quite a lot 🤔
Way too expensive
