1974 Marine Trader 34 Double Cabin - "Aileen 1"
📍 Port Credit, Lake Ontario. Winter storage is paid and included in the price of the boat!
Aileen 1 is a classic Marine Trader 34 Double Cabin trawler with the desirable aft-cabin layout, powered by the reliable Ford Lehman 120HP diesel (2950 hrs). Known for their seaworthy design and liveaboard comfort, these trawlers are popular with Great Loop cruisers and long-range voyagers.
This is a project boat with a strong foundation and a long list of recent, high-value upgrades. The mechanical systems - engine, steering, fuel, and electrical - are serviceable, while much of the costly structural and systems work has already been completed. The vessel is in the water and available for immediate viewings. Owners began a major refit in 2025 but must now sell due to health reasons.
