How are Boatsandoutboards these days?

[Channel Ribs]

The last time I tried using B&O the advert never appeared and I still have an unusable credit from when I had a brokerage package with them, but even so i thought it might be time to give them another go?

The web page seems to be fast again, which is nice. But I cant get it to search by price (probably my fault for not using a PC).

What has been people's experience of late?

I've had reasonable success with it, although it does takes ages for the ad to appear!

[Channel Ribs]

I have stuck one on there, decided to go for a paid one (even though they owe me money) and I am happy to report that it got listed pretty quickly.

There has even been a sensible enquiry already.

It may have been an external dipstick fault, but I could not find the Channel Islands as a location - can anyone help me find it please?

...'bout 80 miles due South from Weymouth? HTH...

So much for that then, the ad has disappeared.

There is now a message to say it has been removed!

Yet another tenner down the boats and outboards tubes then.

[Polwart]

why was it removed? presumably it broke their rules?

Hi Stephen,

Many thanks, I certainly will do.

I never did hear back from you about the credit, the last thing I heard was that it was too small* an amount to be worth bothering with.

* By B&O's deffiniton not my own!


For reference, the message I get when I try to view my ad is:

"Coded Ocean 720 With Twin 90HP - New Tubes And Engines!

I note the FREE part, does this mean the crisp ten pound notes do not actually leave the customer's accounts?
