I want to buy a boat from France. I am from Greece. Can I somehow send the money BUT reserved until I receive the boat in 30days as he says? As soon as I receive the boat I release the money. If I dont receive I get my money back? How it works?

Go onto recent activity/transactions click on the transaction that is the scammed money and press report problem, this sends the seller a message to say you have a problem with the item, if the seller doesn't respond you can escalate it (after a couple of days ) to Paypal and they will hopefully resolve the issue from there.

No that is not how it works as paypal does not do escrow.
Be very careful buying anything that has a motor OR is collected as paypal buyer protection will not cover you?
Advice is voluntary.
Kudos / Solution appreciated.
