Remote (but not forgotten)
For Boats for Sale Worldwide
If your listed boat is kept outside our local area of the UK, these are the benefits;
- No sale no fee – “no sale no fee” solution for your boats marketing and conveyancing. *
- Negotiation – We manage the negotiation to keep that ball rolling to gain you the best price. Many purchasers are unwilling to actually talk shop with a vendor.
- Conveyancing – Our conveyancing service gives buyers and sellers the confidence that the time invested in discussing your boat with our industry professionals from the first enquiry will ensure that the sale can actually conclude with title that is properly transferred and any of the ever complex VAT issues and Recreational Craft Directive are properly dealt with.
- Client accounts – Acting as stakeholders, our multi currency client accounts mean that purchasers from the UK and abroad benefit from the knowledge that their funds are secure until a sale concludes and gives the vendor confidence that funds actually exist at every stage of the sale process.
- 24/7 enquiry handling – our team work around the clock responding to enquiries so you will never miss a lead.
- Featured boat web advertising – Your boat will be advertised as one of the featured boats on our own web site findaboat.co.uk.

- A personal service with dedicated personnel – with direct telephone and email access, handling your needs giving you a single point of contact.
- Detailed specification – full market evaluation and marketing spec produced. This will guarantee your boat is priced competitively against the competition and that the purchaser has all the necessary information to make an informed decision.
- Qualified professionals (BMF and ABYA trained) – giving you peace of mind that in addition to marketing when it comes to conveyancing the sale will actually complete…
- Market penetration – In addition to our own web site, your boat advert will appear on a number of other leading sites, including yachtworld.com, boats.com, apollo duck, ybw, rightboat, boats&outboards, boatshop24 and our partnering brokers web sites throughout Europe giving your boat maximum exposure to the global market.
- Magazine adverts – supporting our “new media” advertising and in order to ensure that we get maximum value for your boat we have negotiated special rates with industry leading magazines to enable it to be offered to buyers in every age group and from all walks of life.
- Mailshots – Our database is managed under government data protection scheme rules which means that we know that our extensive database of over 5,000 boat users is current and in turn your boats details are seen by a “real” audience.
- Accompanied viewings – In addition to being on hand to describe your boats features, our accompanied viewing service means that we have an instant idea of whether there is genuine buyer interest and can exploit this perhaps before the buyer looks at other boats elsewhere. *
- Sea trial – Sea trials by our qualified yachtmasters ensure your boat is in safe hands and performance confidently demonstrated. *
- Handover – Rather than tying up your valuable time, benefit from the freedom of our handover service. This is often a deal maker as it is valuable to the purchaser. *
