I agree ab. Every second hand boat will sell, if the price is right. If an owner isnt really motivated to sell, then there is no need to reduce the price to meet the market. Complaining about the list prices of second hand boats is fruitless unless you understand the vendors motivation, or lack of it. FWIW, i bought overseas and paid half what the owner was wanting.

Fark! oops, i meant per month

CCYC members get a $175 lift, blast and splash deal at Westpark. I think a haul-out, storage for a week and splash is around $500 - $600. No problems with living on board Im living in Sydney at present with my boat back in AKL as the holiday crash pad. I looked at bringing her over here, but marina costs etc are right up there. Rushcutters Bay is about NZD$800-900 per week and the water nazis wont let you do any maintanence on your boat while its in the water. The cruising is far better in NZ as well

Ahhh - that explains the one i used to ogle as a kid sitting outside the Napier Sailing Club on a swing mouring back in the '80's. Never did see it sail.
