50ft .... worth maybe 40-50k depending on it's age & whether it was a top end yacht or medium quality.

At a guess, I would say he wouldn't have any insurance as boat insurance is expensive and many thai's cannot afford it.

What a ridiculous comment..

If someone can afford a 50ft yacht, chances are they can afford the insurance.. Thai, Oz, Brit, Chinese, doesn't matter !!

Stick to cobra comments :)

Are you sure about your evaluations there junior? I've looked at plenty of cats and other vessels in the mid 40's range and I can guarantee you that you are a few hundred thousand short of what they are trading for.

More like 100K (US) plus for anything in seaworthy condition - course it's not worth that now! Good opportunity for salvage as the boat is abandoned and sunk. Salvor should be able to claim the full value of the wreck.

A boat is like a huge, black vortex in the middle of the ocean where you simply throw all your money in until you are finally broke.

Boat like a car are the most expensive items you can buy. Not their purchase price but their drop in value the moment after you did buy either one.

Example: I did buy a 800 hundred thousand Top of the Line car 6-years ago, I'm lucky to be able to get 200 thousand now as a used car. And this cas is still in showroom condition because I'm not a Thai I'm an European automotive maintenance engineer, fifty years experience.
