You'd be surprised how many boat sales end up this way on ebay. I wouldn't say it's the best place to find a legitimate buyer. Most people bid before they figure out their finances, and usually back out at the last minute. I mean, really, who has $15k in their paypal? Between that and the ever-growing number of overseas scams "i'm from nigeria and i'll wire you 10k more than what it's worth, if you send me the boat plus a percentage of the excess funds back" type things, I'm pretty sure it'll be "sold" and re-listed a few more times before the season starts.

Regardless, if there's anyone on this site who's interested in the boat, take my advice and make the arrangements to look at it in person (or have it professionally surveyed), and insist on a sea trial before signing anything!

That was your advice to me last year. It was well worth the time and money going to inspect!
I would pass that advice on to anyone considering buying a boat. I took the 765mi/12hr trip last January to inspect my Shabah 250 then went back in February to pick it up. I inspected it myself and got to see what needed to be done if anything. I managed to get a few thousand off the asking price due to some fixable issues I found. One thing that is digging into my pocket book now is the trailer that came with my boat. See Prestige trailer...
