What would you buy for 50k?

[Ragnahex]

not really looking for advice for myself as i am way off that step but i would be interested to see what you guys would spend that money on for a boat (i know everyones opinion will be different depending on what they use their boats for)

A lovely Sunseeker Comanche 40 ��

 

[julians]

I bought a 2007 windy 25 mirage for a few k under that in 2013

Depends what your friend wants to use the boat for

Indeed. Wide range at that price. Personally if that were my limit Id go for a 2002/2003 targa 34

It really depends how much work you want to put into upkeep as you could go from small to large, new to v. old.

I've had boats from 21ft to 44ft and the difference in workload can be the difference between enjoying boating or not. I have two 21 footers for my boating fix these days...make of that what you will!

Stunning, I want it.

 

[KevB]

Not sure I would actually buy one but a Cranchi Smeraldo 37 is a lot of boat for the money

[jrudge]

Not my cup of tea, but what a lovely boat.

 

[Searush]

I wouldn't buy another boat with it.

Perhaps YBW not the best place for you then.

Ouch! 2002/2003 for £50k? Now you've depressed me....

 

[petem]

Eeek! 2002/2003 for £50k? Now you've depressed me....

Yep, there's a couple France that look like they may go for that. I've heard of another in the UK selling for not much more. which is odd, because they've held their value will over the years.

As Whitelighter knows (and other will be able to guess) T34 would be my choice too!

Having had a T34 for 13 years, if I were in the market for a new boat, and found that Fairline had a T34 in the sheds that they'd forgotten about, it would be my choice too!

Why is this forum only for people who are dissatisfied with the boat(s) they already have then? Or people who don't have other interests, family that need support or mortgages to pay off? News to me if it is, when did it change?

 

[dkm]

Fairline Turbo 36 without a doubt

 

[mad_boater]

Or a Fairline Cornish ...(wrong spelling ) ?
