Our company offers you professional brokerage services when it comes to buying, as well as selling a boat. We are specialized in trading both sailing and motor yachts, new or pre-owed, of all sizes. Due to our long time experience and expertise, we will provide you with reliable support and advice.
Our broker managers will assist you through entire process of buying or selling a yacht, and take care of all the paperwork, keeping the client’s interests in mind all the time.
Buying a Yacht
The first thing to do upon deciding to buy a yacht is to choose the right one. That may be more difficult than it seems. A broker will help you with the professional advice to find a yacht that suits your preferences, experience, needs and finances the best.
After determining what you want, you need to find it; it is much easier for a broker to do that because he has access to more boats (some people wish to sell only through broker agencies) and enough professional experience and knowledge to recognize a “good thing”.
A broker can also accompany you to a sea trial and survey (a buyer pays for that) and help you decide what to do, advise you what to ask, what to pay attention to and how to thoroughly inspect the yacht, based on his professional opinion.
After you had chosen a yacht, the broker will take care of the paperwork, including the initial offer, bill of sale, certificate of ownership, security agreements, tax, registration and other necessary documentation.
You can completely rely on our brokers to work in your best interest and help you get good value for your money.
In case you are buying a yacht without the help of an agent, make sure you have all and proper documentation. These documents differ from one country to another, so you check with the authorities you have everything you need.
Selling a Yacht
If you hire an agent to sell your yacht, you will take a lot of worries off of your mind. Our broker will help you to get the best price for your yacht, by giving advice, establishing the fair market value, providing a marketing plan, and finding potential buyers.
First thing your broker will advise you, is how to prepare your yacht for sale. Getting the boat in absolutely perfect condition is of vital importance – the mechanics, electronics and all the equipment should be working flawlessly and, needles to say everything needs to be impeccably clean.
Then you can establish the price, and an advertising strategy, which is crucial to a good sale. Unless you are an expert in the filed, your broker will give you the best professional advice on how to place your yacht on the market – how and where to advertise, make contact with other brokers, communicate directly to clients.
With a broker, you also needn’t to meet all the potential buyers and worry about the legal paperwork. He does all that for you. Another good thing about having a broker is that he will attend the sea trial with the potential customers and negotiate on your behalf. Of course, he will not make or accept any offer without consulting you first.
You are expected to give your broker all necessary documents and yacht details, and he will promote your yacht in the best possible way and ensure everything is done professionally and in your best interest.
