YACHT BROKER

EYB supports yacht transactions in Liguria through a central team and local brokerage assistance, backed by legal, marketing and sales departments.
To begin, contact EYB head office and describe the boat, its equipment, history, condition and location in Liguria. The team will discuss your objectives and make an initial valuation using the information provided.
You can then review the proposed sale approach and agree the mandate with EYB. The commission is a flat 5%; the written mandate records that figure and the other agreed terms before the listing is promoted.
The valuation informs the conversation about price, but the accepted offer and completion terms are decided by the buyer and seller.

EYB combines central coordination with support close to the boat. Head office manages the wider sale and links the owner, legal team, marketing department and sales team, while local support can help with enquiries about the boat’s marina and arrange visits.
This matters in Liguria, where buyers may want practical information about the berth, access or local arrangements before making a journey. A contact familiar with the area can help explain those details and coordinate a viewing with the seller.
The network also gives a locally based boat exposure to buyers beyond its home port.
A qualified lawyer draws up EYB’s sales mandate and sale contract. The lawyer also handles registration and other administrative requirements relevant to the transaction.
The mandate records the parties’ appointment and agreed sale terms. Before signing, the owner can review the document and raise questions about its scope, the commission or the information needed for the listing. The contract is then prepared for the transaction the parties actually agree.
For a boat in Liguria, the lawyer works with the vessel’s documents and the facts supplied by the parties. This keeps administrative steps connected to the boat and sale rather than relying on a generic form.
EYB’s marketing department promotes boats through current SEO and social media techniques, together with relevant national and international sales platforms.
The presentation starts with accurate specifications and a clear account of the boat’s condition, equipment and history. Photographs and listing text should help a buyer understand the vessel and why its location in Liguria is relevant. The team can use the information supplied by the owner to prepare a listing suited to the boat and the audience.
Promotion is coordinated with sales, so the team can respond when buyers ask for further details or a viewing. Updates can be made when new information or images become available.
EYB’s sales team handles buyer enquiries, arranges viewings, supports negotiations and communicates with clients in the relevant languages.
When an enquiry concerns a boat in Liguria, the team gathers the buyer’s questions and coordinates clear replies with the owner. It can also discuss practical points such as the vessel’s availability and arrange a viewing with local assistance where needed.
If interest develops into an offer, the sales team helps the parties discuss the price and conditions. The owner decides whether to accept an offer and remains involved in agreeing the transaction.
The legal framework for brokerage in Liguria is the Italian Code of Recreational Boating. Its mediatore del diporto provisions apply nationally to relevant mediation of recreational-vessel contracts, including sale transactions. Normattiva, Legislative Decree 171/2005
Chamber of Commerce guidance provides information about the regulated activity and applicable requirements. Chamber of Commerce, Mediatore del diporto
EYB coordinates local support in Liguria in line with the national rules. Its lawyer draws up the sale mandate and contract and handles registration and other administrative requirements relevant to the transaction.
If you are looking for a boat in Liguria, tell EYB the type of boat, your budget and the stretch of coast you prefer. The sales team replies in the relevant languages and puts you in touch with the right local support.
The sales team coordinates enquiries and viewing requests with the owner and local support near the boat’s port in Liguria. The parties can arrange an independent survey and, if agreed, a sea trial. Timing depends on access, availability and the seller’s approval; the surveyor is independent and the parties agree the scope and practical arrangements in advance.
When you make an offer, EYB passes it to the owner and helps both sides agree the price and conditions. The lawyer then prepares the sale contract, and the purchase moves to deposit and completion, set out below.
The agreed payment sequence starts with a 10% buyer deposit paid into escrow. The sale contract records the conditions attached to the transaction, the person or entity holding the funds and the circumstances in which the deposit is released.
After every agreed condition has been met, the buyer pays the outstanding balance directly to the seller. The parties follow the contract for the specific boat and sale, with EYB coordinating communication around completion.
Seller's checklist
Liguria’s coast runs from the Riviera dei Fiori, near the French border, to the Gulf of La Spezia in the east. Where the boat lies changes how buyers reach it and where it can be lifted for a survey.
Around Sanremo and Imperia, Portosole Sanremo and Porto di Imperia both take yachts up to 90 metres, and each has a shipyard for haul-out (Portosole Shipyard and Nautica Imperia). The nearest airport is Nice Côte d’Azur, in France: 67 km from Portosole, about an hour by car, and about 90 km from Imperia. Portosole Sanremo Marina di Imperia
In Genoa, Marina di Genova takes yachts up to 125 metres and lies 3 km from Genoa Cristoforo Colombo Airport, about seven minutes by car. Haul-out is at Cantieri Mostes in Genova Prà, 7 km by road, which has a 160-tonne travel lift. Marina Genova
In the Gulf of La Spezia, Porto Mirabello takes yachts up to 100 metres and Porto Lotti up to 60 metres. Each has a boatyard on site with a 160-tonne travel lift, so a survey can be done where the boat is berthed. The nearest airport is Pisa, a little over 80 km away and under an hour by car.

When you contact EYB, name the boat’s marina, or the stretch of coast you are searching if you are buying. The team then arranges local support at that port.
