Selling a boat in Marina Real
From first enquiry to final handover, European Yacht Brokers look after the sale of your boat at Marina Real in A Coruña. We check the buyers, run the viewings and sea trials, organise any inspection after the survey, and take care of 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 its age, the prices achieved for comparable boats, its options, its condition, the service history and the area. The valuation is free, so you begin from a figure grounded in real sales.
The value of a boat is set by its condition, its model, its age and its equipment, and the area matters as well. Some boats sell better in America than in Spain, and the other way round, and a boat at Marina Real 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 easy to find, buyers can pay for 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.
The experience can be unpleasant, much like selling a second-hand car, with buyers who can be extremely disagreeable. The paperwork is complicated as well, especially 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 gets a better price than you will, and that is his job. For our 5% commission you are very likely 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 Marina Real.
You give us a mandate to sell your boat. Exclusivity is not always required, and we decide it case by case. The contract can be terminated 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. 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 tyre-kickers never reach your berth at Marina Real. 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.
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 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 Marina Real, 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 Marina Real, 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 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 Marina Real is finished properly. For our 5% commission you are very likely ahead anyway, and you do no work.

A Coruña is a significant stopover on the Biscay route, though the approach to and departure from the Galician coast can involve strong winds and rapid weather changes, particularly near Cape Finisterre. Marina Real offers protection from wind in all directions, contrasting with Marina Coruña which is more exposed to swell and southerly winds. It is advisable to obtain a current marine forecast prior to sailing in these waters. Coastal conditions may vary notably between marinas due to their differing exposure. Mariners should take care when planning passages along this section of coast.
From a base at Marina Real, a vessel can make a Biscay landfall or follow a coastal passage toward Costa da Morte and Muxía. It is also possible to take a southbound route toward Cape Finisterre and the rías. The harbour entrance of A Coruña along with the nearby Tower of Hercules serve as prominent approach landmarks, while the city itself offers a convenient shore stop for provisioning and rest.
Boats for sale Marina Real 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.
