Selling a boat in Agios Efstratios
When the survey on your boat at Agios Efstratios turns up a problem, we arrange the inspection and the solution, so the sale keeps moving. Beforehand, we qualify every buyer and run the viewings and sea trials. Afterwards, we organise the contract, the legal side and the transfer of ownership. You do nothing.
Every valuation starts with a detailed market study. We have access to data on boats that have actually sold, and for each boat we weigh the age, the prices obtained for similar boats, the options fitted, its condition, the service history and the area. The valuation is free, so you start from a figure grounded in real sales.
Condition, model, age and equipment set the value of a boat, and the area matters as well. Some boats sell better in America than in Greece, and vice versa, and a boat at Agios Efstratios is judged on that basis, which is why the area is part of every valuation we give.
The market matters too. When the economy is healthy, boats sell well, and when credit is available, buyers can finance them; when it dries up, fewer can. So we pair the valuation with patience and extensive publicity on over 20 international platforms, on social media and on our own website, which draws many buyers. In most cases, that finds the right buyer, and our commission is just 5%.

Taking payment for a boat is where private sellers are most exposed. With so much scamming around today, you want a representative managing the payment. Finding a serious buyer is almost as hard: owners who sell privately often meet around 20 tyre-kickers and time-wasters before they give up and call a broker.
It can be an unpleasant experience, like selling a second-hand car, with buyers who can be extremely disagreeable. The paperwork is complicated too, particularly if the boat changes flag or has to be re-registered. Insurance can be a problem, and someone has to check that the boat has no finance outstanding on it.
A broker will get a better price than you will, because it is his job. For our 5% commission you are probably ahead anyway, and you do no work. Here at European Yacht Brokers, we speak six languages, advertise on over 20 international platforms including YachtWorld, and organise the contract, the legal side and the transfer of ownership for owners at Agios Efstratios.
You give us a mandate to sell your boat. We don’t always ask for exclusivity; we decide case by case. You can terminate the contract at any time.* *If a buyer we introduced during the mandate buys the boat later, we are still entitled to our commission.
A careful photo shoot, with the boat clean, tidy and shot in favourable light, is the first filter a buyer applies. Photos of the exterior, interior, deck, engine room and technical details, supplemented where useful by a short video, present the boat fully and consistently with the asking price, cutting down on pointless viewings.
The specification sheet gathers verified data: builder, model, year, dimensions, engines, equipment and work carried out. On this basis the listing is published on the main boating portals and shared with the broker network and professional contacts, to reach qualified buyers at home and abroad.
Before publication it helps to gather the ownership documents, the registration papers, evidence of VAT status where relevant, engine manuals, maintenance invoices and the inventory of equipment. Well-ordered paperwork speeds up the buyer’s checks and makes the negotiation more solid.
The sea trial follows the viewing, and it is at the buyer’s expense. He brings a professional, insured captain, or you are welcome to come and be present. It isn’t always advisable: sellers are attached to their boats, and buyers can use a sea trial to try to get the price down. The decision is yours.
But no one reaches a sea trial without being checked first. We confirm who the buyer is, whether the buyer is serious and what the buyer wants, so the tyre-kickers never reach your berth at Agios Efstratios. With over 20 international platforms and six languages behind your listing, the enquiries are many, and we organise the viewings so you do not have to show anyone round.
Before a viewing, the boat should be clean, with its systems ready to demonstrate, the records to hand, access agreed and its condition described honestly. We tell you when a viewing is booked, so the boat is ready when the buyer arrives.
You give us a mandate to sell your boat. We put every suitable offer to you. If you accept it, we go ahead; if not, we ask the buyer for a counter-offer, and the decision at each step is yours.
Once you accept an offer, we ask the buyer for a 10% deposit, paid into an escrow account. He can then arrange a survey and have the boat lifted out of the water at Agios Efstratios, all at his own expense. If the survey is good, we go ahead with a sea trial, also at his expense, with a professional, insured captain, or with you on board if you prefer.
We then wait up to 15 working days for the survey report. If there is nothing structurally wrong with the boat, the sale goes ahead. If something is broken, it is fixed at the seller’s expense, and we organise the inspection and the solution. We also help you organise lifting the boat out of the water and give you a list of surveyors we are satisfied with, so the survey does not slow the sale down.
We organise the contract, the legal side and the transfer of ownership for your sale at Agios Efstratios, so you do nothing. The 10% deposit is paid into an escrow account, and the balance goes straight to the seller.
Changing flag or re-registering a boat makes the paperwork complicated, and insurance can be a problem. We also check that the boat has no finance outstanding on it.
With so much scamming about today, you need a representative managing the payment, not you alone. That is part of our work: we arrange the contract, we deal with the legal side, and we see the transfer of ownership through, so the sale at Agios Efstratios is finished properly. For our 5% commission you are very likely ahead anyway, and you do no work.

The island is exposed to the open Aegean, where strong meltemi winds are common. Swell frequently affects the approaches to the harbour, creating variable sea conditions. These factors should be considered when planning passages to or from the location.
A boat based at Agios Efstratios can cruise to Limnos, Skyros, Lesvos and explore northern-Aegean passages in suitable weather. These destinations offer varied options for coastal navigation. Sailing should be considered only when conditions are appropriate. This location provides access to a range of northern Aegean islands without extending beyond the regional waters.
Boats for sale Agios Efstratios are published in the European Yacht Brokers archive as local brokers add and verify them. If you are considering selling, your boat can be presented to buyers searching in this area and in nearby ports: give the model, year and condition for a first valuation.
Agios Efstratios is a small island and settlement in the North Aegean. It is known primarily for its limited size and location. The settlement represents the main inhabited area of the island. No further details about amenities or specific sights are provided.
Agios Efstratios is a remote island in the North Aegean whose twentieth-century history includes periods of political exile. The island also underwent reconstruction following an earthquake in 1968, which significantly affected its development and infrastructure. Its location has contributed to a distinct historical character shaped by these events.
The Museum of Democracy offers insight into the island’s history, while the village provides an understanding of local life. Visitors can explore caves and enjoy beaches along the coastline. Several island walking routes are available, allowing for exploration of the diverse natural surroundings.
The harbour at Agios Efstratios offers water, food, tavernas and basic supplies for visiting yachts. However, fuel and chandlery are limited or unavailable in this location. Substantial yacht repairs cannot be reliably sourced on the island, so alternative arrangements should be considered. The facilities present are suitable for straightforward resupply and dining needs during a visit.
Seasonal religious and cultural celebrations take place annually on Agios Efstratios. However, there are no recurring events confirmed to be hosted specifically at the marina. These activities reflect the traditions observed on the island without a fixed programme connected to the boating facilities.
