Your Buying Journey with EYB

If you wish to purchase a boat in Corsica, you first contact EYB head office and tell them what you are looking for or which boat has caught your attention. The head office oversees the process, and a broker with local knowledge helps set up the viewing. The boats for sale Corsica are listed above for you to browse.

Enquiries, viewings, and negotiations are handled by the EYB sales team in the relevant language. You may decide to arrange a survey, haul-out, or sea trial at your own expense before committing. After both parties reach an agreement on the offer and sale terms, you provide a 10% deposit into escrow. A qualified lawyer prepares the sale contract, which establishes the conditions. When these conditions are fulfilled, the remaining amount is paid directly to the seller, and the lawyer completes the administration and registration.

What to Know When Buying in France

French official recreational-vessel procedures explain the sale and registration steps but do not prescribe a distinct yacht-sales broker licence. In Corsica, use a written brokerage mandate and keep it separate from the vessel’s sale deed. Keep the boat’s registration certificate and a signed deed identifying the parties and vessel. If it is being registered for the first time in France, follow the separate registration procedure rather than treating the sale notification as a new registration. French Ministry for the Sea, buying, selling and registering recreational vessels

For a used vessel already registered in France, the seller starts the online ownership-change process, identifies the buyer and uploads a scanned sale deed. The sale must also be brought to the attention of the DDTM or DML pleasure-craft service. Keep the registration certificate with the sale deed. For an EU boat, retain invoices and import evidence relevant to VAT; Union status generally continues while it remains in the EU customs territory. European Commission, guidance on VAT and customs for pleasure craft French public service, online recreational vessel procedures

EYB arranges local brokerage support in line with these requirements, and its qualified lawyer prepares the sale contract and handles registration. Compare the seller’s title with the vessel and register details, then retain signed copies of the completed file. European Commission, guidance on VAT and customs for pleasure craft

Viewing and Surveying Boats in Corsica

When you are interested in one of the boats for sale Corsica, you start by contacting EYB head office and telling them which boat or type of boat you want to see.

A qualified lawyer then draws up the sale contract and manages registration and related paperwork, with the balance paid directly to the seller when conditions are satisfied.

Sailing conditions in Corsica

At Port de Saint-Florent, the Gulf of Saint-Florent is described as protected from the winds, offering a safe anchorage for visiting yachtsmen, with a harbourmaster’s channel listed among the port’s specifications. Port Charles Ornano provides access day and night in practically all weather, though strong south-westerly winds require care and both south-westerly and north-easterly winds can create backwash inside the port. At Port de plaisance de Propriano, situated at the far end of the Gulf of Valinco, the marina is sheltered from the prevailing north, west and east winds, with a draught limit of 5 metres in the east basin and 3.5 metres in the west basin.

Cruising from Corsica

A boat based in Corsica can cruise across the Gulf of Saint-Florent and the western Cap Corse approach from Port de Saint-Florent, where the official site provides weather and webcam pages for the stopover. Port Charles Ornano offers an anchorage point outside the port in front of the Le Marconajo jetty. At Port de plaisance Xavier Colonna, there is an honorary Christophe Colomb quay, a sea dyke, five pontoons and a fishing quay, with outside anchorage available south-east of the port outside the stated prohibition period, subject to port rules.

Client review

“This is only the second time I’ve ever written a review. But European Yacht Brokers truly deserve it for their comprehensive service. They guided us step-by-step through the entire purchase process abroad. Sara, in particular, provided us with expert feedback at all times and guided us through the boat buying experience. Whether our future boat needed an inspection, maintenance, or technical modifications, Sara and her team on-site handled everything efficiently and without unnecessary bureaucracy. We found European Yacht Brokers to be open and honest brokers. They offer everything from a single source, and we would gladly use their services again if needed.”

“We have nothing but good things to say about Peter and Sara and European Yacht Brokers. We have felt really safe and well taken care of all the time. Due to a health scare we weren’t the quickest in our decisions but they were really patient and never pushy with us. As someone else said the response times have always been incredibly quick and the way they have communicated has been friendly, professional and clear. In addition their willingness to help has continued long after we finished our business together.”
