Looking to sell a boat or related parts or equipment? Although Substack doesn’t offer us a formal classified ads section, we thought it might be fun to do an email blast with a bunch of new classifieds. Here’s how it will work:
Send your text description (up to 100 words) and a single photo (jpeg) to this address: josh@smallcraftadvisor.com
Make sure to include the following information:
A. The item price
B. Your contact information (email at least, phone optional)
C. Your location or general region
The deadline for submissions will be Wednesday, February 14th. The ad email will post on Saturday, February 18th.
Answers to your questions:
Can I run more than one ad? Sure, you can send us up to 3 ads, but please send them as separate individual emails so we can stay organized.
Can I submit a commercial ad for my company, dealer, etc.? No, but we will have some options for commercial advertising eventually.
Can I alter my ad—delete it, change price, etc. after it is posted? No, there really is no provision for that. We will plan to delete the post eventually so you’re not getting contacted a month after the boat has sold, but do expect to have people making contact even after the boat has sold if it sells quickly.
Can I submit a Wanted ad? Sure.
What is the cost? The ad is free to anyone, although only paid subscribers will see the post.
If you’d rather just run a conventional classified ad somewhere—or do both—we also still have our regular classifieds page located here. In fact that’s where the Pelican pictured above it currently listed.
Good luck! •SCA•
