We wanted to share some of the basic tips that we found useful when entering into the very overwhelming and confusing world of buying a second hand boat. We knew nothing about boat buying or boats in general, so did a lot of research beforehand. Some of the sources we used can be found below.
Filmed in October just after Talisman (our 28ft boat) was hauled out for some winter work.
