Selling a boat in Astrous Marina
Selling at Astrous Marina through us leaves you with nothing to do. We screen the enquiries, run the viewings and sea trials, organise any inspection the survey calls for, and take care of the contract, the legal side and the transfer of ownership, from first offer to handover.
Every valuation starts with a thorough market study. We have access to sales data, and for each boat we weigh its age, the prices achieved for similar boats, the options fitted, its condition, the service record and where it lies. 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 Astrous Marina 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 pay for them; when it dries up, fewer can. So we combine the valuation with patience and extensive publicity on over 20 international platforms, on social media and on our own website, which attracts many buyers. Usually, that finds the right buyer, and our commission is just 5%.

Offer, documents and handover.
Most owners underestimate the paperwork, 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 comes finding a serious buyer: private sellers usually meet around 20 tyre-kickers and time-wasters before they give up. With so much scamming about today, you need a representative managing the payment, and dealing with extremely disagreeable buyers can be as unpleasant as selling a second-hand car.
A broker will get 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, advertise on over 20 international platforms including YachtWorld, and organise the contract, the legal side and the transfer of ownership for owners at Astrous Marina.
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 follows the viewing, and it is at the buyer’s expense. He brings 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. The decision is yours.
But nobody gets that far without being checked first. We confirm who the buyer is, whether the buyer is serious and what the buyer wants, so the time-wasters never reach your berth at Astrous Marina. 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.
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 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. When we have a suitable offer, we put it 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 Astrous Marina, 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 Astrous Marina, so you do nothing. 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 check too that the boat has no finance outstanding on it.
With so much scamming around today, you want 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 Astrous Marina is finished properly. For our 5% commission you are probably ahead anyway, and you do no work.
Seller's checklist
Sell my boat Astrous Marina with European Yacht Brokers, acting for owners here from our Athens head office.
The harbour lies within the Argolic Gulf and benefits from general shelter against open Aegean swell. However, northeasterly weather conditions can have an effect on the harbour, occasionally impacting sea conditions and wind patterns. These factors should be considered when mooring or planning passages in this area.
A yacht based at Astrous Marina can cruise to Nafplio, Leonidio, Spetses, Hydra and Monemvasia. Each destination offers a distinct sailing experience along the coast. The best times to sail depend on local weather conditions, which vary throughout the year. Planning according to tidal and wind patterns is advisable. Access to several ports in the region supports a range of cruising options from Astrous.
Boats for sale Astrous Marina 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.
Paralio Astros is a coastal town in Arcadia situated beneath a medieval castle. It has historical links with inland Astros and played a role in the Greek independence assemblies. The town reflects its past through these connections, marking its character within the Peloponnese region.
The main attractions near Astrous Marina include a castle, a beach, and the waterfront. Visitors can explore the local archaeological collection and consider excursions to Nafplio and the Parnon mountains. These sites offer varied experiences encompassing historical, natural, and cultural interests close to the marina.
The town offers essential supplies including food, pharmacies, ATMs, and restaurants, alongside basic harbour services. There is no confirmation of substantial yacht-repair facilities in the immediate vicinity. This provides for routine provisioning and minor needs while berthed at Astrous Marina. Larger repair or specialised servicing may require travel beyond the town.
Seasonal cultural and religious events take place throughout the year in Peloponnese. These gatherings are part of the local tradition and occur regularly, although no recurring marina regatta has been confirmed in the area. The events reflect the region’s heritage and contribute to its annual calendar without a noted focus on competitive sailing. This schedule provides opportunities for participation and observation aligned with the cultural customs observed locally.

We pass it to you. If you accept, we go ahead; if you do not, we ask the buyer for a counter-offer.
It is complicated, so we deal with it, along with checking whether the boat has any finance outstanding on it.
Nothing at all. We handle everything, from the valuation to the transfer of ownership.
The buyer pays. He pays for a professional, insured captain, or you can come along yourself.
That is your decision. It is not always advisable, because sellers are attached to their boats and buyers can use a sea trial to try to get the price down.
We wait up to 15 working days for the survey report to be published.
If there is nothing structurally wrong, the sale goes ahead. If something is broken, it is fixed at the seller’s expense, and we organise the inspection and the solution.
