I’ve been contacted by a couple of different people recently asking about availability of boats so I’ve decided to start a thread on this subject to act as a notice board. If you have a boat for sale or want to add your wanted section please use the form at the bottom of this page.
The submissions are not immediately published and I’ll remove email addresses (more to protect you from spammers than anything else). You can me and I’ll pass on your email to the other party.
To kick this off I’ll paraphrase the contents of the enquiries I’ve recently had.
1. One reader was looking for a nice later inboard version but I think he was so taken by Thomas Huber’s lovely cold moulded boat that he may go that route.
2. Stephen from Scotland is keen to buy a second-hand Romilly in the UK.
“I’ve been looking around the web & got nowhere – I don’t suppose you have any idea where there might be one for sale.” Also if anyone would be prepared to loan Stephen their pride and joy for a consideration he would love to sail her in the more sheltered waters off Scotland’s West Coast.
3. Patrick from France is looking for a day boat, with the possibility of a night or two on board ,and having considered trailer sailers like the Cornish Shrimper he has settled on Romilly as the most beautiful compromise. He plans to sail from St Malo in Brittany (lucky man) but is too busy to contemplate self build. From his email it sounds like he hasn’t fixed his mind on GRP or wooden hull. If you are thinking of selling your boat please contact me with details and I’ll pass them on to Patrick.
If you want to add your wanted or for sale to this list please email me with the details.
