Jeeze Rick. This is a shock. What's Up?

We've been doing this since 1990. My wife has talked me into wintering in Spain. I said I'd give it a try. Some cruising friends did this and are enjoying it. I will still have my boat in Toronto. I have mixed feelings and am doing this reluctantly. I thought of just storing Breathless but it is not good for a boat and she is a beautiful boat. This season we intend going to the Bahamas unless the boat is snapped up. Painting the bottom right now.

She is a beautiful boat and that's a very good price. Any possibility of taking her to Spain in the Spring? You know--Waterfront home and all on the Med Coast?

N'any case, good luck!

Looks like a sweet 393. Good luck. Think the market is picking up a little here.

Don't mean to sidetrack this thread but that is the best news about the boat market I have heard in years. Many years, actually.

Can you comment on the market in the rest of the East Coast?

I'm curious what you guys are talking about. All I see is one price reduced after another.
