Your serious buyers are looking at facebook, OSO, boattrader, powerboatlistings, and craigsist in that order and if it's listed I can usually find it on facebook.

I don’t have Facebook. It’s OSO and boattrader then YachtWorld. Sometimes Craigslist. If I’m on my laptop Craigslist is decent using searchtempest, but I’m usually on my phone.

Don't forget Boats.com, if you list on boattrader.com it's only a few bucks more to duplicate the listing on Boats.com.

Thanks. Now, in the current market, what would be considered a great deal on a 2002 Powerquest 280 Silencer w/496 HO. 600hrs, runs strong. Some sun fade on cockpit upholstery. Saltwater boat.

The broker will list your boat on 6 different websites and then your boat will saturate the market. Try listing for a small fee on boat trader .com and a few others vs paying a broker 10% in my opinion its better to do it yourself

Even if you hate FB, Facebook Marketplace seems to be the new Craigslist

Boattraders cookies are smart enough to fill my Instagram feed with ads for boats I like.
