Why won't this boat sell?
My parents, now in their 90s, had to give up sailing a few years ago for health reasons. They listed their 1999 Gozzard 37A cutter with a reputable brokerage for $239,000, and subsequently dropped the price to $219,000 and then $199,000. Still, over the past two years only a handful of prospective buyers looked at the boat, and it is still unsold. I'm posting here to ask the group whether anyone knows of similar boats (Island Packet, Cabo Rico, Hallberg-Rassy, Shannon, Morris, etc.) that have sold recently, and at what price points. We're weighing whether to cut the price again, or to relocate the boat from Southwest Harbor, Maine, to Annapolis or another market to increase visibility. Thoughts and comments would be appreciated.
