Single picture, private add offering delivery, basic description and stupidly cheap asking price. Add that to the statement message for details (rather than call, chances are its a fax number) I think I'd want to view it before paying

Have to agree with Peter. Why is it they never put their location on these adverts? Even a county gives people an idea of how far it is to view!

You usually find they've placed 10-15 adverts at the same time so there's normally a few clumped together!

Its so easy to spot, like the latest ones on eBay from sellers with zero feedback.

Pretty sure I have seen the picture used before about 18 months ago for a boat on the south coast. I had real trouble sourcing a 380 so knew every boat that had been for sale then. In the end got a very good boat sourced by Peter (Boats and Outboards 4 Sale). Also the engine in the pic looks like a Yam 15 like mine.

Scams

I had a bit of a laugh the other day with someone 'supposedly' selling, sent me an email following an enquiry and gave his name as Simon Rae and listed company details.

I googled the company (a law firm in Edinburgh!) and spoke to the real Simon Rae (of all things, the practice senior partner)

Got to say, these 'kin scammers pick 'em eh lol


I'm in the market for something reasonable, 5 to 6m, 90hp plus

Not too worried about age just as long as its straight and engine is good, don't even mind some clean up!

Budget circa £5500 but always happy to pay £3500 for the same thing lol
