Anybody looking or looked for a sailboat recently? I tend to look on SailboatListings, but if you read the fine print the ads sometimes are years old and it seems many listers don't bother or don't know how to take down their ad after the boat has sold.
Any other good sites you'd recommend?

This site has tons, found my sailboat on this site over 10 years ago.
I'm selling my boat through a broker, so it is listed on yacht world. Yacht world is only available for brokers to sell on that site, so there are a lot of boats on there.
I bought my boat (and my boat before that) on Craigslist. Depending on the area, it is a good source for boats for sale by owner.
Apollo duck is another website for sale by owner.
There are also Facebook groups that are getting good use now. For example, I listed mine on the "boats over 30 feet for sale in the caribbean" group.
Here is a site with a very comprehensive list of sailboats. Enjoy!
Why would you post this on a running forum?
Go to Bigblackrods.com
Because I spend an inordinate amount of time here, being far, far more familiar with running, runners, running races, and such than I am with boats. I've spent a tiny amount of time in boating forums but I've also learned that if you look away from the nonsense this site has genuine experts or experienced people with a broad range of interests and hobbies. I'm not asking them to diagnose a health condition or tell me how to invest my money.

To get an idea of whether buying a boat is for you, before buying one, go stand in the shower and tear up $100 bills.
Thanks. And thanks for the site suggestions. I hadn't heard this one--only the one about a boat owner's two happiest days.

Try $1000 bills. The cash outlay every year is relentless.
