By Beryl Dalton
Selling big ticket items like cars and boats takes an acquired set of skills. If you are trying to market your car determining the value is relatively simple if you have access to a Blue Book. Selling boats and determining their value becomes easier if you search the internet for comparable vessels. A quick search under sell my boat will give you a step by step guide on how find every aspect of the process.
The value of the vessel can be estimated by checking like models and styles being offered by others for sale. Checking online listings, sports and boating magazines, or local sources such as newspapers. The same make and models' value can vary due to upgrades that have been made or the care that has been given to it over the years.
To help increase the resale value of any vessel it will be important to keep an organized and complete record of all maintenance. Long term care is also an important matter for boats. Yearly waxing and covering them when not in use is the first step for proper care. Sailboats need annual mast inspections and fatigued rigging needs to be replaced. The trailer will need to be rinsed after every use especially if used in salt water. Common sense will mean a higher return on your investment when sold.
There are several options for placing your for sale ads before the public. The internet is a fast and easy method of getting wide distribution of the information. Newspapers and magazines are another venue but with these there may be a delay of days to weeks before they are printed and delivered. Many people add their social media as a means of letting people know what they have for sale.
You can anticipate numerous contacts regarding the sale soon after your ad is published. It is important to determine those who are valid purchasers from those who are not able to purchase and are "tire kickers". Scammers are also a threat to those who wish to sell items online or through other means of private advertising.
If you have a potential buyer, meet them in person to help you decide if they are serious or if they know about boats or not. Financial dealings should be done by wire transfer to protect you the seller. There is a fee from the bank but they are experts at this.

States differ but you will need to provide a bill of sale, proof that you own the boat out right, the titles for the boat for your trailer. Common courtesy will compel you to provide the new owners with maintenance records and the original warranty cards you received when you purchased the vessel.
The final steps to selling your vessel will be to cancel the insurance and remove all ads that you have placed online and off. When these things are complete you will be free to use the proceeds of the sale as you see fit.
