how to sell your boat
The Shrimper is a well known and respected boat. Depreciation is relatively low so you can expect to gain a good price if your boat is in good order. Second hand Shrimpers are normally snapped up by those who want a boat so it is advisable to advertise here before placing your boat in the hands of a broker or other salesman - you may save a great deal of money.
what you should do
Have a look at the information presented by others on the sales page and then put your boat's information in the same sort of format and send by e-mail to the webmaster. I am afraid demands of the day job and the level of demand prevents me from taking phone messages or transcibing from letters. You should also send a cheque to the value of £25 to the Honorary Treasuer as we need to pay for this website and your donations keep it going!
what happens next?
Within a week of your information and cheque arriving your details will be entered on to the site (as long as the webmaster is not away sailing in which case there may be a delay) and the requests for further information should come flooding in. Please note that the webmaster has a day job so he tends to batch the requests up and do them at the weekend (normally Saturday mornings!).
after you sell
Please ensure that the person you sell to understands the advantages of joining the SOA and if possible pass him a Joining Form. If you are very happy with the result you can always send another cheque!
