First I was astonished. Then I thought it must be a typo. Then I reckoned they really DID want £114,950 for this quite small and unremarkable boat!!

Flippin' 'eck! Can't be right, unless say, it had a residential mooring somewhere like Chelsea. Which it hasn't!

As with everything itll only be worth what someone is willing to pay.

And if they find an idiot willing to spend that much on that well fair play to them.

No way is it worth that much! I wouldn't pay £5k. You can get alot of boat for £100k.

A quick google of other sales of Alphas show similar prices being asked.

The first picture looks as though it may be incorrect - Alpha 31's are twin double berthed and that pic is too small for that.

(or squashed in the ad which makes more sense)

31ft boat with a single engine, fully fitted out and built in the UK... launched in 2010 and asking around £120k... sounds about right... even if it is fecking ugly!
