Boaty bargains

[zoidberg]

What's the best boaty brokers' website to doom-scroll, looking for daydreams and bargains?

 

[Frogmogman]

Scanboat is quite good for boats in Scandanavia and Germany. In France Le Bon Coin can throw up some interesting boats.

Boatshed, apollo duck.

 

[mrming]

Boat24.com for Dutch and German boats, often in very nice condition.

For daydreams my favourite is Classic Yachts for Sale - Sandeman Yacht Company

Packed with stunning classics that I couldn’t afford and wouldn’t actually want to own but absolutely gorgeous.

Someone went to a lot of trouble "Photoshopping" the solar panels and their associated arches out of that picture! Removing the rows of jerry cans of diesel from the deck would have been fairly easy...just stick them in a dinghy and tie it off to the other side of the Mobo,

It is a rather pretty dinghy though. Nice to have a sailing tender, though maybe its a bit big to store on deck.

That would be a lot of jerry cans, she holds almost 20,000 litres of diesel.

There's currently something that I fancy on Apollo Duck. For 18mths now the price has ben steadily falling...Think I'll leave it a little while longer see where it bottoms out. Its def a buyers market at the moment.

The trouble with waiting too long is that, unless the boat's in constant use, chances are she's deteriorating steadily as well.

The other problem is that it gets sold! I’ve been eyeing a boat for six months, just seriously started working out the finances and it’s gone. Saved myself a fortune

Your quite right. I viewed it 2yrs ago and it was immaculate but, their still using the old photos so goodness knows what its like now, still, it was only a couple yrs old then so maybe not much worse now, we'll see.

I noted a Cornish Crabber 26 offered for £75000, and a 35' Freedom ketch for £2000.

Think I'll go lie down until the craving passes....

I had a nosey, but the only one I could find had a misprint in the price - there was a zero too many. If it's that one, it might be safe to get up
