Re: Stus-List Preparing to sell C & C 24 Sidney BC
Hi Patrick Yes .. not just pictures of the interior is good advice. However just pictures of the exterior features only is also bad. You should have pictures of both and if possible information on age of sail inventory, electronics, engine information and the like. My experience is that boats showing only interior pictures have concentrated on the interior and neglected things like sails, rigging and other gear. Ads with only pictures of the boat sailing and shots of the electronics, winches, sails, etc … probably have not cared much about the interior. The C 24 is a starter boat and as such for many prospective buyers their first boat. Potential buyers will be interested in the layout and interior condition as they may not be familiar with C 24 as they are likely new sailors or first time boat buyers. Showing that your boat has update winches, sails, rigging, etc .. a recent model outboard motor, cushions that are not from 1974, etc .. will make your boat more attractive than others from the same era. 24 foot sailboats are not very expensive to purchase these days but if a new main sail or genoa is required those are very expensive! Good luck!
