[ongolo]

Hi Ladies and Gentlemen, have not been here for a while. Not sure if it is ethical to ask this here, but I have to sell my gaff schooner or motor sailor if you like. I am in Africa the so calle dskeleton coast. Am am 64 yo , just survived 3 days of fighting for susvival. I have to sell. Any idea how to go about it? It must go fast. No this is not a Nigerian Scam although I live in Africa. My daughter is married in London and wil give any reference if needed. Regards Ongolo

Hello Ongolo, I was wondering the other day how you were getting on. What a shame that you have to sell your boat after all the work and money that you have put into it. I'm afraid that I must pour cold water on your idea of selling your boat quickly. It took me 18 months to sell mine, and I'm in Melbourne, surrounded by yachty people. You may stand a better chance if you can get it to Cape Town and place it with a broker there.
Peter.

Boat selling aside, it sounds like you've got an interesting story to tell.
Dare we inquire as to the nature of your (mis)adventure?

Sorry to hear you have hit such hard times, but 'Fighting for survival on the Skeleton Coast' - sounds like something out of the movies - don't leave us in suspense.

If you can bear to tell us your story, of course.
