Question on Wanted ads

Post by Retiredengineer »

I have seen the Boat For Sale advertisements. Have never seen a Boat Wanted ad, though. Wondering if a Boat Wanted ad is worth the cost because I don't see many replies to the few postings that are made here.
Please reply if you own a Dragonfly and think a Wanted ad would be worthwhile. Thanks.

Paying for Wanted advert

Post by Bo Wetzel »

If you can't afford the $75 for an advert don't buy a boat which costs hundreds of thousands of dollars!
Next you want to save on vital repairs or safety equipment.
Somebody said once: "Sailing and owning a sailing vessel is like standing under a shower and tearing-up dollar notes"

They charge $70 for a 3-month Wanted ad. Crazy!!
And don't allow Wanted postings in the Forum. It's no wonder the site doesn't seem to be used much. Thanks for the suggestion, though.

he qualifies to be disqualified.

However, interesting comments by other on this subject on the cruiser forum.
