Hi,
What is the best way to find the value of your sailboat when you are ready
to sail, I mean sell?
Best way to advertise it?
Thanks.

Pretend you're a buyer and start researching your boat in your area
(boats in some places are cheaper than in others or visa versa). Make
sure you look to see that the equipment, state of repair, engine, etc.
are equivalent. Then go list with a reputable broker in your area so
that you don't end up with problems. Having a broker keeps the nutballs
who want to waste your time away from you and screens out possible
problems. Of course, if you just want to dump it out seeing as how
you're done with it, why not donate it to your local Y sailing program
or the SeaBee's?
