Title: Boats for sale in Malta
Post by: Fisher69 on September 16, 2008, 21:24:29 CET
Hi Guys
As I am spending more and more time in Malta I would like to maybe buy a small cruiser to keep in Malta but can't seem to find many websites selling boats in Malta.
Are the boats for sale in Malta more expensive than they are in the UK?
I have a small cruiser at the moment but it's in Spain if I could find a not too expensive way of getting it to Malta I would bring it over.
I have put my name on the waiting list in the grand harbour marina but I'm sure you guys could suggest other locations I could try and get a yearly mooring.
I will be flying over from my home in Scotland on the 30th of September for two weeks and I hope for the first time I can try a bit of boat fishing.
If any of you guys are ever in Scotland I can give you a few days salmon fishing lol.
I hope someone can help regarding buying a boat in Malta.
      Regards
     Vernon

Hi there Vernon , Not sure what your sucess rate was with looking for a boat. Same again not sure if you are looking for new or second hand. There is a few websites that I am aware of which you can propably check out to have an idea on prices etc... http://www.mecca-marine.com/cms.php?mode=viewpage&id=195 is one of the He mainly has brand new boats but sometomes has good offers on previous models etc. Also there is another couple that do have alot of second hand boats all types depends what time of year http://classifieds.di-ve.com/classifieds/CPViewInCat.asp?ID=60 & http://maltapark.com/viewauctions.asp?search=&Category=43&mode=browse Hope this is of any help.

Hi Vernon, I run a website and have a section where local boat owners advertise their boats for sale, so you get to see a range of second hand boats including full info, photos & also the owners' own contact details in most cases. If you would like more info you can also call me on (+356) 99882615

Hi I am new to this website but have now registered, I am the owner of two boats in Scotland which I basically liveaboard, I am now thinking of buying a liveaboard cruiser in Gibraltar but Maltese work collueges say I should visit but they are not fishermen as such.
I work in the oil industry so have quite a bit of free time, summer is great in Scotland but Winters can be long, I obviously could not use a boat year round so it may make sense to share, anybody out there with any advice, it is appreciated, Tight Lines Andy.
