Bristol Channel Yacht Storage and Brokers

[Adam320]

Hi Folks,
I have a 31' fin keel Westerly Tempest which I was living on in Dublin. She is still in Dublin but I am in Cheltenham now and have a new job mostly based in Antarctica, so I'm looking to sell her. Not much of a yacht market in Ireland at the moment, so can anyone recommend a good spot to store and advertise her reasonably far up the Bristol Channel, not too expensive and within striking distance of Cheltenham?
Many thanks
Adam

Have you Googled the title of your post?

There are a few options here. There are a couple of boat yards dotted around the Bristol channel - the two I know best are Portishead and the Bristol floating harbour. Channel Yacht sales (as noted by Sneds) might be a good option, although I don't know what kind of footfall their website has. John Campion at Bristol Boatshed is a really good guy and you would get the benefit of appearing on all the Boatshed searches (usual disclaimer about no connection etc.). I guess you'd have to ascertain storage and commission charges.

Out of interest, have you tried posting an advert on Apollo Duck? Basic posting is free and even their most expensive option is only £40 for 6 months - which isn't horrific IMHO.
