Your friend is a year too late. There was one in Pittsburgh that needed some TLC, but it was a solid boat, with a 350MAG/B3 that went for $12k USD. It had a trailer and the PO just wanted out and got what they owed on the boat. If your friend is planning on shipping it, there are a few on boattrader.com right now.

Hi Greg,

Most of them are already sold or in not nice condition. One is in Nebraska, but this is to far away inorder to check the boat. Have a friend in Florida who will inspect the boot for us.

first and last one sale is pending!

Just curious: how is it cost-effective to buy here and ship to Germany?  Are boats really that expensive over there?  

If you find a boat that's not in Florida, you can probably find somebody here who could take a look at it for you.

Why limit to the 250? Add 270 to your list...

It's easier to fit a 250 into a shipping container. The 270 has a 9'1" beam. The 250 has an 8'6" beam.

If I'm going to pay that kind of shipping costs, import taxes etc. ....

I live on Long Island, NY and sold my Maxum 2400scr to a man in Australia. Sold the boat for $15k and it cost him $11k to have it shipped. He said that he would’ve paid more for that boat in Australia... I had purchased my Rinker before selling the Maxum and was going to have to explain to my wife that we owned two boats now... sold it at the perfect time. Lol

Coming to your Questions, A Rinker year 2005 costs in Germany arround 38.000 Euro, Bottom paint without Trailer

It is still cheaper to purchase the Boat in the US, specially now. A 28K USD Rinker (incl Trailer) would cost all in Germany arround 34K Euro.

Wow, that 2005 boat listed in the U.K. for 35,000 pounds is $49,350 in American money. Reading the listing carefully, it has the VP composite drive, the dreaded XDP. This boat in California would be lucky to bring $20,000, and that would be if the buyer was unaware of the XDP's horrible reputation.
