Resolution
Well-known member
As I have said elsewhere, we were going to put Resolution up for sale in 2021, old age and mobility reasons. So we had a really good plan for 2020. Well the virus has stuffed that plan good and proper. After a year of gardening leave, I will be twice as keen to get in some more good sailing, so the For Sale sign has been chucked in the bin.So far 18 replies and not one that said there plain to sell up.
I think it's wishful thinking on the part of buyers that a 30k boat will be up for sale for 10k or 100k For 60k .
There always be bargains about and always will be some not so much a bargain then a money pit.
I remember after the bad hurricane season all the talk of cheap damage boat to be had for next to nothing and it was going to kill the second hand market valve,
it turn out all them very cheap next to nothing was going to cost money more to put right then buying one in good condition boat and nothing ended up happening to the SH boat market.
There no doubt if this goes on for any length of time there be jobs loses but there also be new business starting up.
For us who have had boats for long periods of times many years in some cases we would have to be a
Most down to our last penny's before selling up let alone give our boats away .
Where some bargain may appear is where people have got to the age where's there are ready to call it a day , but then hasn't that always been the case .
Just have to stay alive long enough........
