I had a local broker approach me on behalf of a guy that wants to buy my boat. I said what is he willing to pay net to me? He told me. I laughed and said that I spent more than his offer in the past 18 months after painting the topsides in May of 2011, new wind system, a complete suit of new sails from UK and painting & non skidding the deck on Nov 2012 and not including the new A/C in June of 2012. I guess my old 39 simply isn't worth very much money in this market. Oh, and he wanted to throw in the bottom job due in March. Surprised he didn't ask if I would finance the boat as part of deal....
