Motor Capacitor Review

Which hull type? What is your pricing budget? What material should your boat be made of? These are some things you should keep in mind when researching motor yachts for sale. Let's take a closer look now.

Hull type: Do you want to find mono-hull (i.e. 'normal') or a multihull (catamaran type) motor yachts for sale? Catamarans are becoming increasingly popular, usually offer more living space (down to a minimum - less than 8 metres has little or no living space), are faster and are harder to capsize, although if they do it is almost impossible to get them up again by yourself. They are also more expensive to berth and are not catered for in all marinas. A monohull is usually the most common option.

If you wish to pick a monohull from the variety of motor yachts for sale that you find, then you have to think about whether you want to find a new or used motor yacht for sale. New vessels are probably more likely to provide you with full satisfaction, if you are ready to wait a while. If you want more value for your money, and maybe you are not ready to wait, among other reasons, then maybe you should look for used motor yachts for sale. You can find great deals, but you also have to keep your eyes open.

Regarding pricing - stick to your budget when checking motor yachts for sale. Remember to include extra equipment - anything from 20% on new motor yachts for sale, to 50% on used ones (though remember that's 50% of the used price!). Remember that you also have to get insurance, moor/berth your boat, store it in winter (depends on location) and also set a budget for regular maintenance.

There are several different materials from which motor yachts can be made - GRP (Glass Reinforced Plastic), Steel, Aluminium, Wood, or Ferro-Cement. Whatever motor yachts for sale you come across, it's worth noting what they are made of.

GRP is the most common material in motor yachts for sale, being light, durable and cheap to maintain. However, make sure that there are no blisters in the material, since it may lead to problems later on.

Steel is very strong, but rust is an issue, especially in used motor yachts for sale. Also, steel vessels beneath 30ft long may be slow. Steel must be kept painted at all times, and it is advisable to do a complete survey on such a motor boat for sale.

Aluminium is usually reserved for high-end custom builds, so be extra careful if you encounter lower class yachts. Wood can last long if properly cared for. However, when evaluating wooden motor yachts for sale, remember that maintenance costs are also high. Concrete motor yachts for sale can be of great quality, but here more than anywhere else, the boat has to be researched properly.

You should get as much advice as possible from different sources when looking at different motor yachts for sale. There are many different opinions, and yachts and yachting are a very deep subject!
