We plan on
buying an ex-charter, 2006
Lagoon 440 by the end of the year, most probably in
Martinique. We'll sail her from November 2011 to May 2012 in the West Indies (Panama in May-June) then
Galapagos,
French Polynesia,
Tonga, Fidji,
New Caledonia,
New Zealand and
Australia (by mid 2013). It will be a short, 18-month
family cruise, as I can't afford to take a longer sabbatical.
Hopefully the AUS$ will stay high, helping us to sell her quickly.
It would be great if we could get in touch with prospective
Lagoon 440 buyers from down under. Firstly because we would not hesitate to equip her better if we know, for instance, that there's a confirmed interest in a screecher,
remote controller or larger
dinghy with 15hp
engine. Secondly because in the best of worlds we would not need a
broker, saving $$$$$ to be shared with the buyer.
18 months is short enough for you to consider our trip as a long
delivery of your future
boat.
Anyone interested ?
