If this is the wrong spot for a member to offer his personal boat, please remove my post or redirect my post to the more appropiate section of our forum. I had no intention of wrongdoing!

Volkhard, You're fine. But I will move this thread over into the "Boat Buyers and Sellers" forum. I know, I know -- it's a bit confusing how we have this set-up.

One further suggestion is to maybe have a more text-based advertisement or spec sheet that prospective buyers can link to directly. I followed your link but had trouble navigating when I got there and didn't see any real info on your boat.
