YACHT BROKERS
Free valuation · only 5% commission
If you are choosing yacht brokers Plataria Marina, start with the question that matters most: who do you want the broker to represent? A seller’s broker brings your yacht to market; a buyer’s broker finds and negotiates a purchase for you; a full-service broker can handle both sides when that is agreed in writing. European Yacht Brokers offers all three at Plataria Marina, with a valuation free of charge, a commission of just 5% and a local broker for Epirus supported from Athens.

Which yacht broker do you need at Plataria Marina?
Which broker do you need? If you are selling at Plataria Marina, our seller’s broker helps set the asking price, prepares the listing and advertises it. If you are buying, our buyer’s broker can research the market, help you compare boats, negotiate and coordinate the survey and sea trial. And if you want one broker to look after the whole sale, our full-service broker does so and, where agreed in writing, can represent both parties. Each service is described below.
You are not just buying a service from us; you are using the experience behind it. European Yacht Brokers values boats from sales data covering the past three years worldwide, handles the contract, the legal side and the transfer of ownership, asks buyers for a 10% deposit paid into escrow, and charges just 5%. Get in touch with our Athens team and they will connect you with the broker for Epirus.
Selling a yacht kept at Plataria Marina? Our seller’s broker takes the work off you: a free valuation, photographs and particulars, advertising on over 20 international platforms, the enquiries and the viewings. The agreement says what is included, how long it lasts and what commission is payable (just 5%), so there are no surprises.
Bringing a yacht to market is the listing broker’s job, and the owner makes the appointment. The broker may help set the asking price, collect specifications and photographs, prepare the listing, advertise the yacht, respond to enquiries and arrange viewings. Check that the listing agreement explains whether it is exclusive or open, how long it runs, what commission applies and which services are included.
The limited version of the service is simple: the broker advertises the yacht, passes an offer to the owner and does not negotiate or manage the remainder of the transaction. Some sellers want exactly that. It is a defined service, but it is not what every seller’s broker offers. Guidance on selling a yacht commonly covers the stages after an offer as well; Horizon Yachts International describes deposit, survey and sea trial, and YachtWorld says a broker may arrange a survey and sea trial.
Before committing, be clear about where the broker’s work ends. Will the broker negotiate price and conditions, help prepare or explain the paperwork, track deadlines and contingencies, arrange access for a survey or sea trial, and coordinate closing, payment and transfer documents? If any of these are excluded, you may need separate professional help to complete them.
The listing broker acts for the seller. If you are a buyer contacting that broker directly, ask whom the broker represents and whether you should have your own representative. Another broker can bring a buyer through a co-brokerage arrangement, in which firms may share commission under their agreement, and the seller should check what that means for fee and service in their contract. This is why the profile is best read as a seller’s listing broker with limited scope rather than a definition of yacht brokerage. It holds equally at Plataria Marina.

Tell us the type, size, budget and area you have in mind and our buyer’s broker will start the search for you around Plataria Marina. We guide you through the offer, deposit and escrow, survey, sea trial and closing, and you always know what we will handle and what remains yours.
A buyer’s broker is engaged to represent the purchaser throughout the search and purchase. The first step can be a discussion of what the buyer wants: yacht type, size, budget, location and priorities. The broker can then study the market, pick out possible boats, gather information from the listing brokers, check the available records and help the buyer weigh up the choices. Some also preview yachts or set up remote viewings, so the client can shortlist before making a journey.
Once a particular yacht is selected, the broker can assist with preparing and negotiating the offer, explaining the process and its deadlines, and coordinating with the seller’s listing broker. Typical stages are a purchase agreement, deposit and escrow arrangements, an independent marine survey, specialist inspections, a sea trial and follow-up discussions. Coordination and communication are the broker’s contribution; the surveyor assesses the yacht, and the broker is no substitute for an independent technical inspection.
Brokerages that offer buyer services list research, negotiation, survey coordination, sea-trial arrangements and closing-documentation help among them. Curtis Stokes & Associates describes helping buyers research and preview yachts, prepare offers, negotiate and find surveyors and documentation support. HMY describes coordinating survey and sea-trial stages, post-survey discussions and closing. The precise scope varies from one broker to another, so settle with yours what it will handle and what you will.
Fees differ. The buyer’s broker may receive an agreed share of the commission through a cooperating listing broker, or the buyer may owe a fee under a separate representation agreement, so establish the fee, duration, scope of authority and any exclusivity in writing before the search begins. In return the buyer has a dedicated representative across a wider search, whichever brokerage lists the chosen yacht. Anyone considering a yacht near Plataria Marina should ask these questions before appointing a broker.

European Yacht Brokers offers full service at Plataria Marina: valuation, advertising, viewings, offers and the steps to completion, handled by one team in six languages. Representing both sides is possible by written agreement, which sets out what is included and how the arrangement works.
A broker offering full service can handle a sale from start to finish: assessing the yacht and its asking price, preparing photographs and particulars, advertising it, answering enquiries, arranging viewings and communicating offers, and then helping progress an accepted offer through contract, deposit, survey, sea trial and closing. Coordination of documentation, escrow arrangements, delivery or other practical details may be added. The listing and sale documents should state the precise service.
The broker in this profile deals with the buyer directly as well, representing buyer and seller together. That is what the Yacht Brokers Association of America terms dual agency: one broker, both parties, the same transaction. A listing broker who simply helps a buyer while remaining the seller’s appointed representative is not the same. Before making an offer, ask the broker how the relationship works.
Consider what each party wants. The seller generally wants the strongest price and terms; the buyer wants a suitable yacht at a fair price and must make informed decisions about its condition. A broker representing both is not two independent representatives and cannot privately negotiate for each side as though it were. The YBAA stresses transparency and careful handling of confidential information. Legal rules and permitted arrangements vary by jurisdiction, so rely on the written agreement and applicable local advice.
Commission is often covered in the seller’s listing agreement, but not always in the same way, so a buyer should confirm whether any separate fee is owed. Keep the terms apart: full-service refers to the range of work, dual agency to the parties represented. Extensive transaction support is possible without representing both sides.
Athens is our head office and your first point of contact, and from there brokers serve the coastal regions and many marinas throughout Greece. The Athens team connect you with the broker responsible for your area, and our regional network means that broker can reach any Greek marina in under an hour to arrange a visit to your boat and provide a valuation free of charge.
Clients at Plataria Marina in Epirus, Epirus, are served by the broker for that area. Our delegates and agents look after all the coastal regions of Greece: Attica, Central Greece, Central Macedonia, Crete, Eastern Macedonia and Thrace, Epirus, the Ionian Islands, the North Aegean, the Peloponnese, the South Aegean, Thessaly and Western Greece. They can speak with customers and visit their boats at short notice, while the Athens head office coordinates the work.
You can begin by downloading the Sales Mandate and Evaluation Sheet. With the boat’s details and condition in front of us, we study the market and prepare a precise, evidence-based valuation, informed by three years of sales data for boats worldwide. Note that a valuation is an assessment of likely market value; the eventual sale price is not guaranteed.
Once you appoint us, your regional broker manages the work of finding a buyer or helping you find the right boat, and guides you through the transaction to completion and the successful transfer of funds. We advertise boats across over 20 platforms throughout Europe, giving them visibility beyond the Greek market, and reaching international buyers can often help secure a stronger price than relying on local demand alone. Our brokers speak six languages between them, so we can connect you with someone who speaks yours.
