Whether our future boat needed an inspection, maintenance, or technical modifications, Sara and her team on-site handled everything efficiently and without unnecessary bureaucracy. We found European Yacht Brokers to be open and honest brokers. They offer everything from a single source, and we would gladly use their services again if needed.”

Frequently asked questions

Why use a broker rather than selling or buying privately?

Engaging a broker helps navigate legal requirements, market knowledge, and networking, reducing time and potential risks involved in private transactions. Brokers can access qualified buyers or sellers and manage complex paperwork often associated with yacht sales.

How the broker helps sell a boat

A broker markets the vessel professionally, handles negotiations, coordinates viewings and sea trials, and assists with documentation. Their experience aids in presenting the boat appropriately and reaching suitable potential buyers efficiently.

How the broker helps buy a boat

A broker facilitates the search based on specific criteria, arranges inspections and sea trials, advises on pricing, and supports negotiation. They help verify the vessel’s condition and legal status before purchase.

How a valuation is carried out

Valuation considers the boat’s age, condition, equipment, market demand, and recent sales of similar vessels. Brokers may inspect the boat and research comparable listings to provide an informed estimate.

Commission in general terms

Commission is typically a percentage of the sale price, agreed in advance. It varies depending on the vessel, transaction size, and services provided, and is usually payable upon completion of sale.

Organising viewings

Brokers arrange viewings at convenient times for all parties. They make sure the boat is prepared and can manage access, whether in marinas or ashore, making the process orderly and productive.

Sea trials

Sea trials are organised by the broker to allow buyers to assess the boat’s performance and handling. These are conducted under agreed conditions and may involve professional captains or surveyors.

Independent surveys

Independent surveys are recommended to evaluate the boat’s condition beyond initial inspections. Surveys vary by vessel type and may cover structure, machinery, and safety equipment.

Documentation for sale or purchase

Required documentation depends on the vessel’s flag, ownership, and jurisdiction. Brokers assist in gathering registration papers, certificates, and any necessary transfer documents to support a legal transaction.

Working with clients who are not local or are abroad
