If you’ve got a boat to sell, Kori Ward wants to hear from you.

Ward manages Port Ludlow Marina, which will host the fifth annual “For Sale by Owner Boat Show and Marine Swap” from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. this Saturday, April 13.

But as of yesterday there were just seven boats registered for the event, compared with 25 last year, and Ward is encouraging owners with boats to sell to get in touch with her.

“We want to get boats here — kayaks, boats on trailers, floating boats, anything,” she said. “Everyone’s welcome.”

There will be slips available for larger boats and plenty of space for trailerable boats, Ward said. The cost to participate is $20 per boat for vessels of any size (moorage is extra). A booth in the marine swap meet, which Ward said will include anchors, outboard engines, fenders and other items, is $15.
