Brokerage

“I collected the boat over the weekend and I am delighted with it. Thanks a million for all your assistance and patience, it is much appreciated. Hopefully we will have a successful venture and will be coming back to you for an upgrade in a few years!” Orla Hassett, Wayfarer, November 2020

“As we are getting older and have numerous weekend demands from grandchildren, a decision was made to give up racing. So we called upon Pete’s service to sort out the sale of our boat. For a very reasonable fee, it was advertised widely and sold quickly at the market price.”  Judith and Alan Bolton

“Payment received, thanks for that and for organising the sale.  All very efficient. ” Tim Weighill – Sale of Feva May 2016

If we are asked to view a boat on behalf of a customer we know what to look for to make sure there are no hidden problems to encounter after purchase.

It also helps that we will often know the history of a boat and how well its owner has taken care of it.
