Ce que couvre cette vidéo
Andy Schell is shopping for a new family sailboat in Sweden, transitioning from his current Norlean 34, Spica, to a more livable vessel.4:36 He is utilizing the Swedish classifieds site Blocket to identify potential boats, noting that the fall season offers lower prices as owners seek to avoid winter storage costs.11:21 Schell is intentionally avoiding his previous "ready-fire-aim" approach of buying boats sight-unseen, instead conducting a deliberate search and visiting multiple vessels in person to avoid the mechanical issues that plagued his past purchases, such as the Swan 48 Eastbjorn.9:05 His current search criteria focus on boats in the 32- to 36-foot range, with specific interest in models like the Albin Stratus, OE 32, OE 36, and Fasil 35.16:51 He emphasizes the benefits of buying directly from owners rather than through brokers to ensure a more transparent transaction.1:50:11 The search process serves as a methodical alternative to his history of impulsive boat acquisitions.
