Welcome back Chief, good to see you have not given up on an Investigator.

My suggestion is to put a WANTED ad on gumtree or similar net based site. You may get someone, as I did, who had a good one sitting at home for years unused and his wife wants it gone from her petunia bed.

Great advantage is you are not competing with others as you are when a bargain is advertised. You can set up an alert on gumtree that will email you at specified intervals of anything that comes on sale , but try the WANTED as well.

Dont be put off by a moored vessel providing it has been maintained. My boat has been moored for many years and is still fighting fit. Keeps the trailer better too :)
.

Good luck .

Peter, sorry to hear about your situation. Stressful time, but things do get better. (Been there, done that.) Then you can buy another boat. Good luck!

Then look me up.

You can unjoin just as easily I believe.

Try that, please.
