Yacht world

[madhatter1]

Yachtworld search is now 100% useless. You are limited to searching boats 33-49 feet, 49-66 feet, etc. So you have to sort through hundreds of boats to see what you are looking for. It must be so they can tell those with ads that they were found in many searches.

I only look for fun at boats like mine for ideas and such. If I were a buyer I certainly would not use them. Until they change search functions back on I will not be using as well.

I was able to narrow down all the copies of my boat that were listed. Slim pickin's but very specific. What does suck about the site is the amount of advertising that makes it really hard to load.

If you click search without filling anything in, it'll bring you to a page where you can specify the attributes such as length, year, location, etc. Not endorsing YW as I think it's turned to crap. But you can get there from here.

FWIW what i've noticed is that there seems to be a lot more boats advertised on boattrader these days. Not that that's much better. I 'think' they're all owned by the same company tho. So...

YW, Boattrader, and Boats.com are all owned by boatsgroup. The sites all suck - some more than others. I used to say that the only thing they did efficiently was the billing. They can't even get that right anymore. I haven't received an invoice since early January 2023. Their online billing portal says that I owe them $3,700 but there are no corresponding invoices or statements to detail the charges. I'll be damned if I'm going to pay any balance due without an invoice.

Thanks for the trick. I’ll try that. I enjoy seeing cool ideas on other boats.

It seems to me that it is getting harder to use rather than easier!

[madhatter1]

Yeah, I'm going with its a 100% POS useless site. 100% sucks.

On THT someone mentioned a yachtworld alternative.

https://www.yachtr.com/

Seems legit. Also I did a search for 46 Hatteras. There is an 83 just like mine for only $60K. Weird thing is that the 8-92's are rated at only 362HP. Hours are 1100 so seems like when rebuilt they were detuned. Cruise is reported to be same as what I run but top speed much lower. Who knows. Might be of interest to anyone looking.

That looks like a new name for an MLS site run by the yacht brokers association.

They´re now killing it for many brokers by getting too greedy. A frind of mine from Italy just told me he´s closing his account because they now want to charge like 25.000,-USD per year. Not possible for small offices!
Guess we will see a shift away from boats group soon...
