Selling a boat in Port of Aegina
From the first enquiry to the final handover, European Yacht Brokers look after the sale of your boat at Port of Aegina in Aegina. We check every buyer, organise the viewings and sea trials, organise any inspection after the survey, and handle the contract, the legal side and the transfer of ownership. You have nothing to do.
Every valuation starts with a detailed market study. We have access to sales data, and for each boat we weigh the age, the prices achieved for similar boats, the options fitted, the condition, the service history and where it lies. There is no charge for the valuation, so you begin 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 the other way round, and a boat at Port of Aegina 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 strong, boats sell well, and when credit is easy to find, 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%.

The paperwork is more complicated than most owners expect, particularly when the boat changes flag or has to be re-registered. Insurance can be a problem, and someone has to make sure that the boat has no finance outstanding on it.
Then there is finding a serious buyer: private sellers usually meet around 20 tyre-kickers and time-wasters before they call a broker. With so much scamming about today, you want a representative managing the payment, and dealing with extremely disagreeable buyers can be as unpleasant as selling a second-hand car.
A broker gets a better price than you will, and that is his job. For 5% you are probably ahead anyway, and you do no work. Here at European Yacht Brokers, we speak six languages, list on over 20 international platforms including YachtWorld, and organise the contract, the legal side and the transfer of ownership for owners at Port of Aegina.
You give us a mandate to sell your boat. Exclusivity is not always required, and we decide it 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 comes after the viewing, and it is at the buyer’s expense. He pays for a professional, insured captain, or you can come and be present. That isn’t always advisable: sellers are attached to their boats, and buyers can use a sea trial to push the price down. It is your decision.
But nobody gets that far without being checked first. We establish who the buyer is, whether the buyer is serious and what the buyer wants, so the time-wasters never reach your berth at Port of Aegina. With over 20 international platforms and six languages behind your listing, the enquiries are many, and we arrange the viewings so you do not have to show anyone round.
A good viewing starts with a clean boat, systems ready to demonstrate, the records to hand, access agreed and an honest account of its condition. We agree each viewing with you, 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, we go ahead; if you don’t, 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 Port of Aegina, 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 take care of the contract, the legal side and the transfer of ownership for your sale at Port of Aegina, so you have nothing to do. The 10% deposit is paid into an escrow account, and the balance goes straight to the seller.
The paperwork can be complicated, especially if the boat changes flag or has to be re-registered, 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 organise the contract, we deal with the legal side, and we see the transfer of ownership through, so the sale at Port of Aegina is finished properly. For our 5% commission you are probably ahead anyway, and you do no work.

Aegina’s harbour contains ancient port installations that reflect its historical role. According to a published Sunsail destination guide, Aegina town was the first capital of modern Greece. These features contribute to the area’s overall character and provide a point of interest for visitors and residents alike.
Aegina Town was briefly the capital of the newly independent Greek state and remains the island’s principal port and commercial centre. Its history reflects a significant chapter in the nation’s early governance. The town continues to serve as the main hub for maritime and trade activities on the island, connecting it with other parts of Greece and beyond. This legacy highlights its ongoing importance within the region’s commercial framework.
Near the Port of Aegina, visitors can explore the Temple of Aphaia and the Kolona archaeological site, alongside the Archaeological Museum. The area is also known for its pistachio farms, while the Agios Nektarios monastery offers insight into local religious heritage. The old-town streets provide an additional point of interest for those examining the region’s history and character.
The port of Aegina offers supermarkets, pharmacies, ATMs, fuel arrangements, water, and several restaurants within easy reach. Frequent ferries operate from the port, providing connections to other locations. Additional marine services are available elsewhere on the island through PLANACO Yachtyard and Aegina Yacht Services.
Annual events on the island include Fistiki Fest, which celebrates the local pistachio harvest, drawing attention to this important agricultural product. Additionally, the Aegina International Music Festival offers a series of summer concerts, providing cultural activities during the warmer months. Both events attract visitors and contribute to the seasonal rhythm of the island.
Aegina is accessible from Piraeus by regular ferries and hydrofoils. The conventional ferry journey takes approximately 1 hour 15 minutes according to a secondary travel source.
