I actually thought it came up below value.

I will just express a few thoughts:
1) seafarers have been moving higher at an incredible pace lately
Along with Mareographe's.

2) The much more common 2443 and 2444'd have made price prints as high as $9k - and those come out on offer about once a month or so.

3) when was the last time one of these 2447 seafarers came up for auction.
I don't remember ever seeing a competitive bid process for one of these. Admittedly I am a newbie compared to some of you.

4) I actually think these have more room to run. (But since it could be a long time before we see another up for bid, we will probably have to wait a while to see that happen - who knows how long, and isn't that the rub)

Paul recently picked up a 2447 Mareographe
And it looks like one was grabbed via a buy it now on eBay last week ;)
But these are not competitive a processes involving big egos.

I thought it was worth stating my view since it seems to be a minority.

Btw

Here's mine:

Picked up from an estate sale right in my own back yard - Greenwich, CT.
