There are two main ways to find pre-owned boats :-

1/ Check the MYA For Sale section of their website. Boats are sold incredibly quickly on this website, so if you see something, move fast.

2/ Between club members and friends. Make sure people know you are looking!

There are no set rules or standards when buying a previously owned boat. It had never occurred to me as a newcomer though that it is relatively normal to find that boats for sale come without a stand, and without radio kit. It varies obviously and I guess all sorts of things might be possible “by negotiation”. So when you see an advert, be careful to clarify this.

If you already have a radio controlled boat, you can usually share the transmitter between boats by using the “multiple models” features.
