Used boat guide with iWannaboat

Buying a second-hand boat is often a good idea because the price of new boats is high. However, a cruising or racing boat or sailboat that has already been sailed can also be more optimised than a boat that has just come out of the yard. Here are some tips for your purchase, whether it is a yacht, motor boat, dinghy, cruising yacht or catamaran.

This is a great opportunity for yachting and cruising, whether it is a sailing boat or a motorboat or outboard. Here are our tips to help you find your way around the boat sale.

There are some very large boatyards in Europe such as Bénéteau or Jeanneau who have a large range of boats that are often found on the second-hand market.

How to sell a used boat

First you need to place an advertisement on iWannaboat, the best used boats and boats ads site. We will give you a few tips to present your boat well and make it easier for you to sell boats.

Place an ad for your boat

To do this, draw up a complete description of the boat for sale. That is to say a complete presentation of the history of your sailboat or motorboat so that buyers already know your boat well. Then also prepare a complete list of the equipment (rigging, deck fittings, sails, trailer, engine, propeller) that will be sold with your boat.

Take pictures of your boat

It is essential to attach photos of the boat. If your ad does not have photos, buyers will not go and see it. On iWannaboat, you can put as many photos as you want. So take photos of catamarans, cruising sailboats, semi-rigid boats, new or second-hand boats as well as wide and close-up shots. Take photos of the hull, the bow, the mast, the engine to show your boat in all its details.

Location of your sailboat

Indicate the location of your boat. It is important for buyers to know in which region the boat is located. You can also indicate whether your boat is in a harbour, whether you have a berth, or whether the yacht is at the pontoon, or wintering in a shipyard. Indicate whether it is on the Atlantic coast, the English Channel or the Mediterranean. Boaters interested in your advertisement may request a visit.
