Buying A Pre-Owned Charter Boat

Why do we know this subject inside out?

We have been owners of several charter boats, in several fleets.
Michel, Sailonline's owner, founded and presided for 10 years of the Moorings Owners' Group, the world largest charter yacht owners association.
Michel and his partners (all with equal unmatched experience on charter yachts) have implemented hundreds of transactions involving charter boat sales - new and pre-owned - all over the world.
