Somebody lend me £375k, please.

I was berthed next to France II in Barcelona a while back (http://easternyachts.com/france2/) asking price has now been reduced from 1.1m Euro to 500k Euro!

That is a nice boat

having seen her in real life, I can tell you she really is...

 

[ribrage]

There's actually a half decent chance I'll pay it back in the next few years too

How I'd love that lovely ship.

Or even this one : http://www.sandemanyachtcompany.co....n---Stephens-37-ft-Sloop-1966/yacht-for-sale/

She is my favourite - possibly has a higher place in my heart than my own boat, just not very practical for cruising otherwise she'd be ours

Have this one to keep you going in the meantime.

She is outstandingly well fitted out and £125k cheaper

You could live on her and run an internet business or something

Love the oldies but this is more up my alley...

Really? No doubt very practical in many ways, but it just screams (or rather, mumbles) "bland" and "dull" to me

Never going to win any beauty contests I agree, but then again, personally, I've never been a big fan of older wooden yachts.

Nothing to do with performance, nothing to do with handling, nothing to do with strength or lines or character...I just prefer more modern designs.

I know this will upset many of the 'old faithful' here but as someone already said, one man's love is another man's turn off, right?.

Good thing is, there is less competition for those yearning for a classic.....
