Blue Water Yachts order

Forums: 

Hello All

I'm about to send off (this evening) an order to BWY in The States. Anyone want to join me and take advantage of my already paying carriage costs?

I thought it could work like this: let me know the order number and transfer the required amount in GBP + 20% for import duty/VAT over to me. We'll settle up precisely when the parcel arrives. It usually takes 7-10 days.

Hi all

We have a very dirty boat and need to buy cleaning products for the following

Canvas cleaner

Hull deep clean

Black band restorer

Bilge cleaner

Canvas cleaner

General cleaner/polish for white above water level

Front hatch inner surface sealer, seems flakey

Any recommendations welcomed, just not sure if we need special marine stuff or will general house hold products work as well

Boat buying process

Forums: 

Hi All
Looking to pick brains again
We've agreed a price for a 26X (but we've never bought a boat before)

So what paperwork do we need to see/produce
Is VAT an issue (it's a private sale)
Do we need to register the boat/change of ownership

ps we will never take the boat out of the UK which I assume simplifies things

Thank in advance

Hi All

Not sure if this is in the correct topic

I'm going to have a look at a couple of 26x's this weekend (never owned a boat before and will be having a survey) but from everyone's experience what do I need to keep a special eye out for while looking at them

Thanks in advance

VAT proof

david.claassen's picture

I have rediscovered a lot of the paperwork from when I bought "Logan's Run" to include the original boat show materials (attached). The flyer states that all boats were sold with VAT included.

I currently have no proof that VAT has been paid on my boat, but I am fairly certain that it has. I would love to get some kind of documentation of VAT. I do have the addresses of the only 2 owners, but have not yet contacted them.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

David
