Private Sale
VAT-Exempt
“I’m told VAT won’t apply to my older boat.” In reality, boats built before December 31st, 1984 are deemed to be VAT-paid (‘grandfathered’ into the VAT scheme, as it were) but only if they were physically within the EU as of December 31st, 1992. Both those facts must be proven with convincing documentation (e.g. original sales invoice; a slip lease receipt). It’s the very rare NA boat that will fit into this category.
This Amel Maramu
ocean cruiser sailboat has been Inherited and is now for sale at
a bargain price.
First come - first sold.
TIPS:
Verify the seller's details for name, city, email and phone number. All should be easily supplied by the seller.
Request Proof of Ownership. Private parties selling a boat should be able to produce evidence of Title, Registration, and on more recently manufactured boats, Hull Identification Number (HIN).
Request Proof of Possession. Request information or photos only someone in possession of the boat could supply. Eg: request a specific photo not common to web postings or auctions (such as the actual build No or a close-up of a specific part).
