That does look excellent value.
The 370 is a great boat - the raised pilot house makes it feel like a little ship

It does look like a lot of boat for the money.
My only query would be "Where does everyone sit when underway?".
Maybe there is more seating on the raised pilot area that the pictures don't show.

Some very competitively priced boats on Ebay at the the moment.
Possibly showing just how many older boats are coming onto the market and not selling via normal routes ie. Brokers.
Chatting to a very mature boater recently, whose boat will probably never move again,very reluctant to put boat on the market due to selling prices
He explained how they had paid over 100K for the boat concerned and expressed worry that he would be unable to achieve the 60K he thought the boat was worth.
A search of the internet will show considerable numbers of his very popular boat at prices well below that.
A good time to buy.

If prices are falling it is not a good time to buy. Just wait another 6 months and the price will be another £5K lower.
it is really very hard to see the bottom of this market so little to tempt buyers to buy now rather than to wait.

All true......save that in 6 months you are 6 months closer to not being able to enjoy it through old age/death etc. What price those 6 months of enjoyment?

That is a great price if she has full service history. I prefer the updated 380 but for the price difference I would take a 370.

Cheapest 380 at the moment appears to be £120k. Granted it's newer and updated but £60k almost pays for 10 years boating!
If I had the money I'd buy it - you could probably sell it in a few years' time for the same price.

I spotted the Ancasta advert as well. Wonder when the advert is from as I see the details say "last serviced 2005 with 250 hours recorded" Also owner comments seem to be from based on south coast and boat is now at Holyhead so perhaps previous sale from a few years ago?
Also came across a video advert from Liverpool Boat Sales for same boat but it is not a current advert either but perhaps more recent than the Ancasta one.
