Websites for French boat sales

[daibachsail]

Does anyone know which websites French yachties use to sell their boats?
Some appear on apolloduck but so far all have had duff information or have been sold.
Yes I am aware of the implications of buying in France.

Just google "annonces bateau" will bring up all their main sites.

Several, close to all, boat ad sites are portals, harvesting ads all over.

Hence you have the same ad on every portal, just note that updating is VERY slow on a lot so many boats found in reality are obsolete/sold/withdrawn

xboat.fr is one that you'll find also on the xboat.uk doman.

My personal experience is that many boats in southern Europe are used year-round, sizzling in the sun & salt and that maintenance means something completely different down there. Many boats esp. with coloured hulls are faded beyond recovery.

"Original condition" can mean "didn't do anything to it since new" (views a Princess 35 in Barcelona that the owner was proud of. In my view it was a GRP coffin with interior in pieces, 2 x TAMD41 with worn turbos and what not. At the demo the engines covered Barcelona Marina (LARGE) in white smoke.

But the big Porsche the seller arrived in looked nice.

Mostly private/private, but you must search a specific boat model, there is no filtering by length, sail/motor etc.

Also Le Bon Coin as already mentioned above.

Also, Facebook groups are a popular way in France to sell boats privately.
