Buying a boat in Europe

Jack, thanks again for the thought provoking ideas. We''re currently living in The Hague, Netherlands. Yes, there are lots of boats around here - I''ve sailed on several, but we really LOVE the Med. Buying here and moving her south would entail good season/weather planning, but I can see the advantages that you mentioned. BTW, have you taken your boat into the canal system? I''ll have to do some research on mast-removal, charts, etc.

Your article on VAT was very good and I think I''ve got a good feeling for what''s involved. We''ve been living here for 4 years, so I''m used to EU bureaucracy.

Lee
