Campaign.


Regarding the format of classified advertisements I recently browsed through
a copy of
"BOAT/U.S. REPORTS" which devoted a few pages to classifieds.  The categories
used
are :
Sale or Trade - Sail
Sale or Trade - Power
Equipment
Wanted
Flotsam & Jetsom
Waterfront Properties
Yacht Charters.

The following are some example ads:
