Hello Dave,

I completely respect the right of the site owners to set their own parameters regarding posts and paid ads, and they certainly need to be compensated somehow for the services they provide.

However, I saw your original post and it didn't occur to me that it could have been a solicitation. Heck, my neighbor wants to buy my boat but I'm not sure what a fair price is. Dunno who to ask either, and I'm not advertising it for sale.

A good potential source for you to find out the value of your boat is Mark Michaelson at the sailing pro shop. His Catamaran Buyers Guide covers P16 values was available online but is currently being revised and therefore not available. Give him a call and he'll give you free advice (and it will be worth more than you pay for it). Ironically, Mark was the target of extensive flaming posts a few months ago when he "crossed the line" on this forum. So you'll be in good company.

Regards,
