Pain and pleasure of buying through the web
Published in Motor Boats Monthly Dear Sir, when I decided to take the plunge and buy my first boat, I thought the best approach was to trawl the internet. Via email and on line forms, I contacted 17 brokers on 22 different boats I had seen advertised. I was amazed that only 11 even bothered to answer my e-mail, and that only five could supply any extra details or images straight away.
I finally found a broker at Boatmatch.com who was as enthusiastic as I was and responded immediately to my requests. Consequently, I am now the proud owner of a Sealine F43. The whole buying experience went smoothly and the broker even helped me get a great price to get her delivered to her new mooring. Colin R Casey by e-mail.
