Selling Your Boat
A Structured, Professional Sales Process
Selling a yacht is a significant decision, and a clear, well managed process makes all the difference. Our aim is to present your yacht professionally, reach the right buyers and handle the details with care. Our brokerage team includes experienced ABYA members, ensuring recognised industry standards are followed throughout the sale.
Preparing Your Yacht for Market
Presentation matters. We help you identify the small improvements that can make a meaningful difference to buyer interest — from servicing and cosmetic touches to documentation and equipment lists. Clear, accurate information builds confidence and helps your yacht stand out.
Accurate Valuation and Market Positioning
Understanding the market is essential. We assess comparable listings, recent sales data and seasonal trends to position your yacht competitively. Our approach is balanced and realistic, aiming to achieve the best outcome without creating unnecessary delays.
Professional Marketing
High quality photography, detailed specifications and clear descriptions ensure your yacht is presented at its best. We promote listings across established platforms, our own channels and our network of active buyers. The goal is simple: maximum visibility to the right audience.
Viewings and Enquiries
We manage all enquiries, arrange viewings and handle the practicalities so the process remains smooth and efficient. Buyers receive clear, accurate information, and you remain informed at every stage.
Negotiation and Sales Progression
Once an offer is received, we manage negotiation, contracts, survey arrangements and any agreed rectification work. Our role is to keep the process moving, protect your interests and ensure all parties understand the next steps.
Completion and Handover
We coordinate the final paperwork, financial settlement and handover arrangements. Once the sale is complete, we ensure a smooth transition for both seller and buyer, with clear documentation and a professional finish.
