Which yacht broker do you need at Marina dell’Orso – Poltu Quatu?
Three questions decide which yacht broker you need at Marina dell’Orso – Poltu Quatu. Are you selling? Then you want a seller’s broker, who markets the yacht and passes you the offers. Are you buying? Then you want a buyer’s broker, who researches the market and negotiates for you. Want one person to see the whole deal through? A full-service broker can do that and, if both parties agree in writing, represent both sides. See the sections below for each.
Yacht brokerage is what we know, and we make it easy: a valuation free of charge, a commission of just 5%, over 20 international platforms including YachtWorld, six languages and a local broker who can reach any Italian marina, including Marina dell’Orso – Poltu Quatu, in less than sixty minutes. Tell us whether you want to sell, buy or have one broker for both, and we will take it from there.
Owners at Marina dell’Orso – Poltu Quatu who want to sell can appoint European Yacht Brokers as their seller’s broker. The local broker visits your boat, we value it free of charge, and then we put the yacht in front of buyers across Europe in six languages. Commission is just 5%, and we set out the scope of the service in writing.
The seller’s listing broker is the professional the owner engages to present the yacht to the market and find a buyer. The broker may help with the asking price, with specifications and photographs, with preparing and advertising the listing, and with enquiries and viewings. The listing agreement should set out whether the appointment is exclusive or open, how long it lasts, what commission is payable and what services the broker will provide.
A limited service exists for sellers who need only a listing and marketing arrangement. Here the broker advertises the yacht and passes an offer to the owner, while negotiation and the rest of the transaction stay outside the broker’s responsibility. It is a legitimate, defined service, though not a description of every seller’s broker. Many guides include post-offer work: Horizon Yachts International sets out the deposit, survey and sea-trial stages, and YachtWorld says a broker may arrange the survey and sea trial.
The handover point matters, so ask before you sign. Who negotiates price and conditions? Who prepares or explains the paperwork? Who tracks deadlines and contingencies, arranges survey and sea-trial access, and coordinates closing, payment and the transfer documents? Tasks the broker leaves out may need separate professional help.
Under the listing relationship the broker represents the seller. A buyer who approaches that broker directly should ask whom the broker represents and whether to have separate representation. Buyers may also arrive through another broker under a co-brokerage arrangement, where the firms may share commission as they agree between themselves, so the seller should confirm in their own contract how this affects the fee and the service. Taken together, this describes a seller’s listing broker with a deliberately limited scope, not yacht brokerage in general. The same applies to a boat kept at Marina dell’Orso – Poltu Quatu.

Buying a yacht abroad is easier with someone on your side. At Marina dell’Orso – Poltu Quatu, our buyer’s broker listens to what you want, finds suitable boats, helps you compare them and negotiate an offer, and keeps the survey, sea trial and closing moving. A local broker can reach any Italian marina within the hour, and we speak six languages.
The purchaser appoints a buyer’s broker to represent them in finding and buying a yacht. The search usually starts with a conversation about the buyer’s plans: the type and size of yacht, the budget, the location and the priorities. From there the broker can research the market, identify candidate boats, collect information from listing brokers, review the records available and help the buyer compare the options. Some buyer brokers also preview yachts or arrange remote viewings, letting the client narrow the choice before travelling.
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 describe buyer services that cover research, negotiation, survey coordination, sea-trial arrangements and help with closing documentation. Curtis Stokes & Associates, for instance, describes helping buyers research and preview yachts, prepare offers, negotiate, and find surveyors and documentation support, while HMY describes coordinating the survey and sea-trial stages, discussions after the survey and closing. Services differ, so the buyer should ask what the broker will handle and what stays with the buyer.
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 Marina dell’Orso – Poltu Quatu should ask these questions before appointing a broker.

Prefer one broker to manage everything? At Marina dell’Orso – Poltu Quatu our full-service broker handles the sale from assessing the yacht to closing and, if the parties agree in writing, represents both buyer and seller. The arrangement is written down so that each side knows whom the broker acts for.
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.
Buyer and seller want different things. Generally the seller seeks the strongest price and terms, while the buyer wants a suitable yacht at a fair price and has to make informed decisions about its condition. One broker for both cannot negotiate privately for each side as two independent representatives would. The YBAA discussion stresses transparency about the arrangement and careful handling of confidential information. Because the rules and permitted arrangements vary by jurisdiction, the parties should rely on the written agreement and 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.

Start a valuation by downloading our Sales Mandate and Evaluation Sheet. From the boat’s details and condition we can study the market and produce a precise, evidence-based valuation, drawing on the sales data we hold for boats worldwide over the past three years.

After appointment, your regional broker handles finding a buyer, or the right boat for you, and guides you through the transaction to completion and the successful transfer of funds. We advertise across over 20 platforms throughout Europe so boats are seen beyond the Italian market, and reaching international buyers can often help secure a stronger price than relying on local demand alone. Six languages are spoken between our brokers, so someone can talk to you in yours.

A listing broker is engaged by the owner to bring the yacht to market and seek a buyer: helping set an asking price, preparing the listing, advertising it, answering enquiries and arranging viewings.
Arrangements differ. The 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.
Not by default. A listing broker who helps a buyer with the sale may still be appointed to represent the seller. The written agreement decides.
We advertise boats across over 20 platforms throughout Europe, so they are visible beyond the Italian market.
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.
