Does anyone have a list of links for sites on the web where kayaks for sale
might be found?

I wish I had a better list than the one I have -- it seems like there's
some potential there. I was the one that pointed out "allaboutboats" that's
touched off another thread. This is basically a yachting website, although
there are presently about 40 listings if you keyword search under "kayak"
-- a couple of them are "will trade for kayak" however. This site is
actually a combination of the boat ads from three fairly big, more general
purpose classified sites, so probably has more listings than most. The URL is:

http://www.allaboutboats.com/search/boat/?

ORBS (URL below) also has a fair list of kayaks for sale. I question how
well they maintain the site, though -- there's currently a "for sale"
listing on there from a guy I know, who sold that boat a year ago -- it
hasn't been taken off. It'd be nice if they automatically expired ads after
so long.

Hope this helps. Would sure like to see any additions anyone has, too.

-- Wes

I listed a couple boats on various newsgroups and websites for free.  A
couple of the websites, I later discovered,  had no way to remove them once
sold.  Many months later I'm getting emails from folks regarding the boats
which have long since found new homes.  I always respond to the emails since
I wouldn't like to be left hanging out there while looking to buy a boat.

If your listing a boat for sale, stick with newgroups which die on their
own, or make sure the website has a method to remove the item once sold.

 I don't believe that this site allows commercial listing, but does provide 
free classified space for individuals.

I sold a boat through the classified in http://www.outdoorplay.com/ .  The
kayak sold two weeks after posting.

Hey, Matt.

I haven't come across a list of links, but in addition to the 
paddling.net classifieds that Bruce mentioned, I troll the Northeast 
Paddlers Message Board (www.npmb.com). One neat source that has not been 
mentioned is the "Cool Notify" feature of Excite Classifieds, whereby 
they send you email notifications of new postings that might be relevant 
to your needs. Here's a recent sample:

>Greetings from Excite Classifieds,
