Good little boat price seems ok , many been off shore Two been round the block made in south nebe SA in the 70s , several mods by year of manufacture with cabin changes , the. Shibora could be a worry ,but go check it out ,

What next so are there compass steering them to our boats , the reason I believe is we aren't on our boats enough , so they are left alone to do what they want I think

I went for a sail one day and while going along there was these little black half moon shaped things all over the cockpit and it was swallows had been living In The boom and shitted in there so it was being sprayed as the boom was moving ,there was a crust type nest in the boom wich we removed

It all comes down to the vendor if he's realistic then the broker can move it , some vendors think there boat is the best in there eyes and is worth top value , but sadly there is a word not said in the broker business ,,, vendor crunching, ,,, and that takes months till he realises his boats value is not what people will pay , the broker has a tough job , they usually try and list good stock so they know it will move , no easy remember they are trying to sell your boat , if it's not up to scratch and priced right his position is hard and the answer is make an offer I will see what he can do

Brokers have 7.5 percent plus gst Fee minimum , some have $50k rentals to pay and some admin at the desk , sellers list with them for exposure , and ask what they want , ,so many sit on the market going no where ,some brokers have boats on there books for years ,over priced , but brokers have a hard life It's not easy in that industry , you have the dreamers. ,he wants SHE doesn't , the timewaisting types feeding their one day boat , wanting to see every thing on the water , the. There is the traders with a piece of crap trading up , trying to convince the seller to take it , it goes

Well I did the windows on my mates boat used all the materials said , looks good , but the caulking product I don't know , the Dow 795 , you can't paint it , it's soft , and once the window is in , days later you can move it in the opening , where's MS is harder , sticks well to the window and is paint able And the Dow we had a leek in one corner that baffled us as the was no sign of anything , the glass was treated first many times with there product , rubbed the stuff in many times around the perimeter , the rebates sealed , I thought it would be better ,

Hi you know these boats are old now and quite cheepish , and plastic , so you will have to do your homework on the hulls , mechanics, etc , you talking max carter 33 or the euro carter 33 , if so check it out

But it all comes down to the cost of running it , the marina puts many off buying , the haul out fees , the paint content , all goes against the investment , and taints the excitement, so the boats are slow to sell and very negotiable, the weather is crap , , campervans in this country are on an up , easy to store at no cost ,, at home ,, cheep to run , and the wife's are more interested than boats in cases , lots of boaties turn to that way of life away from the other , the 80s class boats are struggling to hold price over age , condition , new motors , rigs , paint jobs all against them now

apart from the propulsion thing there is living power , we find cruising Leave Marina 100/. Percent , 300 amps two 80 watt solar panels , day one ok , day three power settles at 80 percent and stays there , run engine each day helps , usually after a week the power in storage is average is 80 percent , radio , fridge , lights at night , vhf , and occasionally at night the DVD video , this power has to be put on top Of an electric motor and its battery's so it gets complicated. Many battery's. House ,engine , it goes on
