Island Time 1,239 Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 I thought this looked ok if your preference is production boats... http://www.yoti.com.au/jeanneau-sun-odyssey-42i-scarlett/?utm_source=Newsletter&utm_campaign=99b59dd2d2-Latest_Listings_June_20157_6_2015&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_08a98ce731-99b59dd2d2-227077593 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

JK 28 Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 If you are in to that sort of thing 2007 Beneteau Cylades 39 for $90k + duty: http://f.chtah.com/s/40/2075039557/Bussakorn_CY39_EN.pdf Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Terry B 71 Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 Thread drift alert!!! This is not for sale overseas (unless you count north of the Akl harbour bridge foreign territory). But she looks perfect for what I would like.......... of course, we're all different............... http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/boats-marine/yachts/keeler/auction-913957075.htm Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Island Time 1,239 Posted July 10, 2015 Author Share Posted July 10, 2015 Yeah, a tidy boat, but IMO way over priced considering what is around, especially internationally. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
erice 732 Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 like those raised saloons a feature of the german reinke yachts http://www.inautia.com/used-boat-50914080140756100101504997515045.html Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Terry B 71 Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 Yep IT, over priced - but I like her. Meantime, in order not to buy a bigger ship, I'm trying to make my 29 footer larger with an enclosed canvas cockpit that I can sleep in over summer - WITHOUT making it ugly. Not that easy!

Island Time 1,239 Posted July 16, 2015 Author Share Posted July 16, 2015 This one appears very well priced, and in top condition... http://www.beneteau430-rhea.com/ Well done advert as well. Makes a change from what is "normal"... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
1paulg 17 Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 Agree IT above example looks tidy however always though it would be a hassle having a U.S. Boat with 110 v - people say just use an inverter but if / when anything needs replacing a slight hassle. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tuffyluffy 76 Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 IT and 1paulg, you do realise that the price on that boat is USD?, isnt it? hence thats NZD$227,000 (incl GST) for a 23 year old Beneteau and that hardly seems like a good deal at all. Admittedly its had some upgrades, but upgrading that is a bit like polishing a turd isnt it Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TimB 7 Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 Plus 5% tax plus GST adds up to nearly 22% because the GST is on the taxed total (and is supposed to included shipping costs as well). Tb Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Admittedly its had some upgrades, but upgrading that is a bit like polishing a turd isnt it The exchange rate has changed, making this boat certainly not as good as it was. Months back it was about $143,000 NZD, asking, now closer to $180K NZD and you are right, likely too high for a NZ purchaser. I don't know where you get the $227,000 from? USD rate is now around 0.67 - was close to 0.90! so all the imports are currently considerably more expensive!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The exchange rate is a moving feast at the moment, US$129k is now around $NZ$200k, add in GST @ 15% and tada, NZ$227k. I went to reorder some product offshore last week and got a hell of a fright. If I sold it back to my supplier two weeks later I might make some $$ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Island Time 1,239 Posted July 17, 2015 Author Share Posted July 17, 2015 Yep 100% correct, I just checked todays rate 0.65!! That must really make selling new imports in NZ almost impossible! Sure makes those previous "bargains" offshore look not too flash now! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tuffyluffy 76 Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 If the trend continues there will be an offshore market for second hand NZ boats and we'll all be rich!. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kestrahl 6 Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 I was on a similar age Jeanneau 403 recently, he was about to haul to replace all his skinfittings and seacocks with NZ tru-design as the factory brass were poor quality, all had it and had almost sunk his boat! Still prefer a higher quality older NZ boat. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
