When potential boat buyers browse through online classified boat ads on Boatline, they start their search by quickly scanning ad photos. A compelling photo of your boat will entice boat buyers to click on your online boat ad for more information. Boat sellers who submit only one picture with their online boat ad fail to maximize the sales impact of their ad.
Boatline allows boat sellers to post 12 photos with every online ad at no charge. For just $10, the number of photos can be increased to 24. Pictures are a proven way to draw the attention of boat buyers to your online ad. Online boat buyers like to see what they’re buying. Attaching a photo gallery of your boat to your online ad will help your boat sell faster.
Follow these tips for creating great photos to post to your online boat ad:
- Choose a sunny day. Plan to devote one hour to picture taking.
- Use a digital camera with flash and minimum image quality/resolution of 1024 pixels by 768 pixels.
- Water and photo equipment don’t mix; protect your equipment during filming.
- Use a wide-angle lens to take several exterior photos of the entire boat.
- If possible, take a wide-angle photo from above the boat to show its layout.
- Use a telephoto lens to capture photos of your boat underway.
- Use a normal lens to take close ups of major features, including steering/throttle, cabins, galley, deck, head, anchor, trim, etc.
