Great thread and on target for me.
I want to buy a trawler (or trawlerish) anywhere along the great loop. Want to move aboard next spring.
Yacht world prices often range from $19,000 to upwards of $75,000 for the same make, model and year range. I understand condition varies a great deal, but I have looked at boats advertised as "great condition" near the high end of the price range that were truly awful.
I am struggling to figure all this out. A buyers broker would be nice but given that these boats are all over the east coast and great lakes, I'm not sure how realistic that is.
So, I will follow along with interest.
Thanks, Arch
