BST: 43' Marine Trader Sundeck

[Peter North]

It's been rather quiet on here with few sellers or buyers lately.  I wonder
if sellers are holding on because they think it's not the right time to sell
and serious buyers are holding off because they want to see if they can get
a better buy.  If you are a buyer when do you think it is the right time to
buy?

 

Well the time has come as a serious seller I'm reducing the price another
$10,000 to $89,000 for a solid glass semi-displacement hull with excellent
low hour (1200 hr.) Volvo diesels.  If I needed a serious powerboat this
would be it, just do not have the need anymore and want to move on.  Two
homes, four cars, several smaller boats and two full time jobs leaves very
little time for the big boat.
