Looking for a used cruise equiped 30-40 foot sailboat for approx a us buck per foot. Any ideas? Techniques? I've tried 38/48 north and craigslist so far. Try Ebay http://motors.shop.ebay.com/items/_Sailboats__sailboats Most of the "asking prices" and/or reserves are on the high side (by a lot), but check closed sales on boats similar to what you like. I think you can find a wide variety of good deals but it always takes dilignce to seperate a really good deal from a cheap boat that ends up being a bad deal. .... To cruise equip a boat at present "boatyard" or "west marine" cost is prohibitive. In that case, you should examine the strong possibility that your eyes are bigger than your wallet. If you can't afford to outfit a boat the way you want it, what makes you think you'll be able to afford to maintain it? Either set your sights on a smaller boat or a simpler fit- out. And as always, time equals money. The more time & effort you put into hunting for bargains among good equipment, and rebuilding & installing it yourself, the less cash you have to lay out. And of course, the less time you have for sailing. .... You'd think with all these bank problems people would be forced to sell luxury items. The only people "forced" to sell are the ones who can't afford the payments, and they probably didn't buy the kind of serious cruising boat you're looking for. OTOH it may be rewarding to look around among bank seizures, although banks are notorious for setting unrealistic asking prices for houses, cars, boats, etc etc that are upside-down with regard to market value versus outstanding loan balance. .... Please don't let this degrade into a political thread, I just want to buy a boat. What's a person with ready cash to do? Look harder & in more places. Fresh Breezes- Doug King |
