Want To Buy: Cruiser Located Anywhere in Asia

[Hoghead]

40-50', centre cockpit or PH preferred but my mind is open for the right boat
Will take her to the Philippines so lying anywhere in Asia.
I need something in good condition, fully found and ready to go.
Budget to 200K USD but would prefer less

email is best

Don't know what your maintenance level is for tropical living but its hard work. Sure you will find something to fit every budget but you do get what you pay for. Could try anywhere around here (SE ASIA) but you better come in person. Phuket Thailand or Langkawi Malaysia have a good SH Market. All the best in your search..

Is New Zealand too far away for you? There are a lot of boats around that would suit you down to the ground if your willing to start your adventure here.

Here's a couple I found on a quick search that could work for you. The exchange rate works in your favour too.

I have also been looking in Oz and NZ, but hoping for something suitable a bit closer.
Going to Phuket and Langkawi next week for a look around

Have a duncanson 35 Total refit 2012 57k spent new everything Australian rego located central Queensland ready to go nothing to spend amazing boat photos email cameron.moir@bigpond.com you will not be disapointed

[Hoghead]

Thanks but 35' is a bit small for my needs

In Subic shopping now and next stop Singapore
it looks like I will have to spend a bit more to get what I want and will do so if I cannot find something suitable

You could also try Danga Bay in Johor Bahru as they are closing and there were still a lot of boats there last month !. Singapore is an expensive place ..

[Hoghead]

Thanks will check it out

Yes Singapore is over the top expensive but there is one there that catches my eye and worth a look on the way home

Look up YBC, PipPen marine and LBS all are brokers in Langkawi, is a good spot to buy

[Hoghead]

I live in Thailand and have been in contact with most brokers in SE Asia but nothing that is really right for me.

I could make then right, but am now hoping for a private sale or something newly listed. Am now setting my sights on Australia

Hi Hoghead
Think you are being a bit vague with your specs ! I bought mine in Phuket for 150k but have now got it where I want it and its cost another 70 ! You must have some models in mind ! And budget for mods etc.
All the best with your search.

might be a bit over your budget, but have a look at Oceana, located in Singapore.

it is 49' I am after not 49m
4-5X the budget

I have a 2002 Beneteau 473 that you may be interested in. It is in immaculate condition and fully set up for extended cruising. I have just returned from 2 years in Indonesia, Malaysia and the Philipines and can fully recommend this yacht.

[Hoghead]

depends on the layout so please send me more details
