There goes another one!

[PCUK]

While waiting for my boat to sell I like to punish myself by looking at other boats for sale. I know exactly what I want and have been watching one as it's price was gradually reduced and it became a real bargain. Now some lucky bugger has bought it and I have to find another one.
Oh Pooooooo!!!!

Good time to buy but i won't till i sell mine.Did that last time and owning two boats is a pain & expensive.

 

[PCUK]

Too right, that's not something I would ever contemplate again!!!
Just gotta be patient!

selling your own boat and then taking a couple of years to find what you want is painful,and expensive too!

Do you feel like letting us know what you're looking for? If so someone on this forum may know of an example that may be coming up for sale this winter or next year. However if you want to keep your cards close to your chest I'd quite understand.

Good luck with selling the present boat.

I'm looking for a Jeanneau Leader 805 with diesel engine under £35,000 so happy for any help. I've been looking all summer and know of every boat advertised on the various internet sites in the UK and Europe. But if any new examples come up then I would be very pleased to know about them.

Yup...sold our yacht last year, but still boatless. But we are looking for a rare beast...a more traditional rather than modern design, but in A1++ condition. Those that have them ain't selling them!

We put our Konsort on the market a few weeks ago, SWMBO's health means we can no longer sail and we are now looking for a small pilot motorboat just to be able to get out for a couple of hours.

Have seen an Ocqueteau for sale locally which has a really high spec and looks well looked after. I was tempted to view it because they seem quite rare but just couldn't deal with the stress of buying another boat while still owning our Konsort.

Good luck with the sale of your boat.

Thanks Matt, I agree that the two boat scenario would be a financial nightmare!

It is a very good time to sell boats at the moment, but getting a good price has become rather 'challanging'! I am too selling to upgrade to a fin/full keel yacht suitable for offshore/ocean. Been trying to sell for over 6 months, and still no buyer!

 

[PCUK]

It's even worse when you see what you want being advertised and sold. Another one has just come up at an even better price but there's nothing I can do!

 

[Mymobo]

So what are you trying to sell and where is it advertised?

 

[PCUK]

This isn't the place to be promoting my sale.

Word of mouth is effective!

I appreciate that, but discussion forums aren't the place for selling.
