Where to buy Motor Yachts and cabin boats?

[Flying Soapbox]

Hey,
does anybody know where to buy motor yachts and cabin boats :confused:

[Flying Soapbox]

I can't find a website for the models. What I'm really looking for is something tall and kind of long

[Kmot]

If you can be more specific about what boat exactly you are looking for, maybe someone can direct you to a website.

For example, do you want a display only boat? Or a radio controlled boat?

"something tall and kind of long" is a very ambiguous statement. A 1/700 aircraft carrier model is tall and long, for example but only several inches long as a model. Are you looking for a 10' long model or just a small desk display model?

Not sure that most of the larger ones at that price will last very long. :o
