Welcome to the UKWA Classifieds

Advertising free of charge is one of the many benefits of UKWA membership. Members can log in to post and manage their adverts. 

If you are not a member and would like to advertise, please join the association, then log in once your application has been processed.

Guidance for advertisers

• Please begin your advert heading with your boat number e.g. W0000
• Include a value in the Price field, otherwise your advert will be published as FREE.
• Include a location for where potential buyers can arrange with you to see the boat. A rough location (e.g. town or county) will normally suffice.
• Advertisers can choose whether to include their email address and phone number. If you include these, they will be published online. If you omit these, buyers will be able to contact you through the UKWA website only.
• Adverts posted here will be reproduced in our Wayfarer News magazine. If you have not included your email address and phone number in your online advert but would like these to feature in the printed advert, please contact us.

Scam Awareness

Unfortunately, scammers are known to target online marketplaces such as our classifieds section. It is important to know the signs of a scam - if in doubt, you can get in touch with us for a second opinion. A genuine sailor usually asks some informed questions about your boat and/or says how it might suit the activities they do.

Flags for scams:

• Only asking what your best price is
• Wanting to buy the boat unseen
• Pressing you to act hastily
• Offering to send a deposit
• Offering to overpay the asking price
• Asking you to click on a link to verify your identity
• State they are arranging a courier to collect the boat for which you need to pay something upfront
