Default Boat buying sites

Hi
Anyone care to recommend a website listing most boats for sale.

I've got Yachtworld and YBW (same thing??) going but are there any others?

I look at some individual brokers' sites occasionally but it seems that
whatever they have rolls up into Yachtworld anyway.

Are there any that allow you to key in -bavaria -beneteau -hunter etc so you
can eliminate a lot of what you don't want to see?

Not critical, just curious

thanks

Yachtworld advanced search has many filtering options.


http://www.boattrader.com/ allows searching by state


Craigslist is regional by design.

Is that a stand alone reader for Craig's List?
I use CraigsList Reader Pro from CraigsPal. Sure beats the heck out
of manually checking/switching different locations with a Web Browser.
And it's free.

I use the filtering on Yachtworld but I wish it had a minus or NOT function
so I could see what was in my range without having to already know the
keyword/s

I'll go check boattrader now. Thanks.

I found my Sabre on the Latitude 38 website (latitude38.com). It's mostly
regional, but they do list "south of the border" and a few other areas once
in a while.

Sailingtexas is about the most popular I've seen. The free sites like this
have driven boattrader almost out of business here in FL. There used to be
4-5 seperate books for the state but now we're down to 1 and it's pretty
thin.
I avoid brokers like the plague so I just use Yachtworld for the pretty
pictures.

Why so anti-broker? I thought they were supposed to act ethically etc etc.

Expecting a broker to act in your best interests is mostly wishful
thinking. Just like a real estate broker, they are paid to represent
the seller and maximize the sale price. The other thing to remember
is that they don't get paid unless the deal closes. Having one
broker in on the deal does help to facilitate the negotiation process
however. I once did a deal with two brokers involved and will try to
never do it again.
