GH37 on Lake Union
Waterline Boats has listed a unique boat presenting an unusual opportunity for adventuresome, water-oriented people! This 2000 Great Harbour GH37 yacht is a stout little ship with amazing living space. She’d make a great live-aboard, and when its owners cast off lines she’s capable of exploring the far reaches of Puget Sound, British Columbia and Alaska comfortably and safely. She’s powered with economical twin Yanmar 56 hp diesel engines, equipped with a complete electronics suite, home-sized appliances (including washer/dryer), two staterooms with private heads, a Caribe dinghy, and even a bathtub!
Lake Union moorage is available for transfer — if you’re thinking about a Lake Union houseboat and want to live in the heart of the exciting South Lake Union marineplex consider a boat that can actually take you places!

With feedback from customers and dealers, Bracewell Boatworks has modified the Camano 41 to include a helm station door! Providing quick access to the foredeck, the pantographing-type door makes both docking and single-handing safer and easier. The door is made by Diamond Seaglaze, so it seals watertight and is sturdily built.
With the addition of the helm station door, the window line has been modified to present a new clean and streamlined appearance!

The 17th Annual Camano Rendezvous was held at Thetis Island Marina July 10 – 12. With 27 boats involved, great weather, a lovely setting, and a number of first-time participants, the rendezvous was very enjoyable and an opportunity to share experiences and Camano information. A marine life Q&A by Andy Lamb, noted marine biologist and author of “Marine Life of the Pacific Northwest” (2005 by Harbour Publishing) provided new insights into our beautiful cruising grounds.
The 18th Annual Camano Rendezvous has been confirmed for the same location next year – July 9-11, 2010!

Waterline Boats received delivery of a new 2010 Mariner 42 Classic Sedan Trawler, the first on the West Coast. Mariner has delivered many of these to East Coast customers and the two-stateroom yacht has been very well regarded for its comfort, spaciousness, seakeeping and traditional styling.
This boat is now available for viewing at our docks on Lake Union, and is very specially priced at $319,660, including many options and a Cummins QSL 9.0 405 hp commercial duty engine. With this unique and valuable engine package, the 42 Classic will cruise economically and reliably for many years.

Waterline Boats is pleased to be able to offer three Camano trawlers, all in excellent condition and ready for summer cruising. All are located in Seattle. Our selection includes a 2006 Camano 31 with very low hours and in like-new condition, a 1993 Camano 31 that has been extremely well-maintained and lightly used and is difficult to distinguish from a much newer Camano, and a 2006 fully-equipped Camano 41 that has served only as a dealer demonstrator.
Camano trawlers are noted for their precise construction, remarkable sea performance, and spacious, comfortable interiors. To view these boats visit our Waterline Boats inventory page by clicking here!

Mariner Yachts has announced the launch of two new trawler designs – the 41 River and the 41 Sundeck. These boats feature luxurious staterooms fore and aft, a generously-sized saloon, and an expansive raised aft deck. They differ in their flybridge configurations. As with all Mariner Seville-series yachts, these boats will be built with well-crafted teak and holly interiors, sturdy hull and superstructure construction, and many thoughtful features throughout.
The first of the new models built, a 41 River is in final testing in preparation for delivery to a customer, and photos of the boat will be available soon. These yachts are both being introduced at an attractive base price for 2010 models of $357,500, including delivery and prep.

The Waterline Boats crew enjoyed a successful TrawlerFest in beautiful Anacortes. After getting thoroughly soaked on arrival day we appreciated the sunny weather that predominated during the show. The Bracewell Pacesetter 540 received several “best in show” comments from guests and the Mariner 37 Pilothouse Trawler hosted many repeat visitors and two sea trials before returning to our Lake Union office. We had a lot of interest in our Boatshed International Yacht Brokerage system, which continues to grow with over 70 offices worldwide and is proving itself to be the best process for listing and selling a used boat!

Lance Bracewell of Bracewell Boatworks joined us for the entire show, answering many questions about his Pacesetter line and the new Camano 41, and demonstrating great pride in what he and his Richmond, BC yard can do for discerning boaters – whether new custom yacht builds, refits, or maintenance and repair.
