M/Y Mer-Sea
A 2025 Krogen 60-footer on the market through the YATCO MLS.
"Mer-Sea" is a 2025 Krogen 60' trawler offered for sale at $3,495,000, lying Charleston, South Carolina. A trawler is a small ship, and its value lives in the systems - tankage, stabilization, electrical capacity, and engine health decide whether the long-range dream works, which makes independent buyer representation essential on this category.
Power is twin 4045AFM85, 200 hp each, showing 150 hours. She cruises around 8 knots and tops out near 10 knots, carrying 1,800 gallons of fuel.
Accommodations run to 3 staterooms. She carries naval architecture by Jim Krogen.
Highlights
What sets this hull apart on today's market.
Greg Gaus spent more than 20 years as a professional captain living with exactly these ship systems offshore, and evaluates a trawler the way an operator does: range at load, machinery health, and maintenance discipline before cosmetics. That is the lens every Double G buyer gets on this listing: what the hull is really worth, what the survey should focus on, and how she compares with every sistership currently for sale.

What does it cost to run a 60-foot trawler?

Where can I see "Mer-Sea"?

How does the purchase process work?

How much is Florida sales tax on a yacht?
Florida charges 6% sales tax on boats but caps the total at $18,000 per vessel regardless of price - one of the most favorable regimes in the US. Out-of-state buyers who remove the vessel within the statutory window may qualify for an exemption.

Cruise around 8 knots, top speed about 10 knots and 1,800 gallons of fuel with twin 4045AFM85, 200 hp each - comfortable Florida-Bahamas legs and seasonal Caribbean runs.
