Building your advertisement is easy to do. Just type...
Your advertisement will appear on a Web page exactly the way you enter it here. You can wrap a word in square brackets to make it appear bold. For example [my sailboat] would show as my sailboat.
There's no limit on space; you can put as much as you like in your advertisement. The more detailed your description, the more your potential buyer will be drawn into your advertisement. Here's a few suggestions...
* Good pics of your sailboat are essential - the most important of which is a general shot of the entire boat, preferably underway or at anchor, plus some interior and cockpit shots.
* Detail exactly what is included in the sale, together with an inventory of electronics, sails and other equipment. Watermaker? Electric anchor windlass? Dinghy and outboard? Life raft etc, etc?
* Her vital statistics; Length overall, beam, draft and displacement.
* Where was she built, and who by?
* When was she built and who was she designed by?
* Tell us what type type of construction she is. Fibreglass, wood, ferro-cement, steel or aluminium?
* Explain how you've updated and maintained her over the years. * Describe how you've used her and how she's looked after you. What are her endearing qualities?
* Explain why you're selling her, and why you believe she'd appeal to a prospective buyer.
Finally, don't forget to include your contact email address and your asking price!
