YACHT BROKERS
Free valuation · only 5% commission
If you are choosing yacht brokers Club Nàutic Port de la Selva, 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 Club Nàutic Port de la Selva, with a valuation at no charge, a commission of just 5% and a local broker for Catalonia supported from Valencia.

Which yacht broker do you need at Club Nàutic Port de la Selva?
Three questions decide which yacht broker you need at Club Nàutic Port de la Selva. 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. We explain each 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%. Contact the Valencia team and they will connect you with the broker for Catalonia.
Here is what you get from us as a seller at Club Nàutic Port de la Selva: a free, evidence-based valuation, a listing prepared with photographs and full particulars, advertising on over 20 international platforms including YachtWorld, replies to every enquiry and arranged viewings. We charge 5% and spell out in the agreement exactly which services are included.
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.
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.
Before signing, 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.
A listing broker represents the seller. Buyers dealing with that broker directly need to ask whom it represents and whether they should have separate representation. Where another broker introduces the buyer, a co-brokerage arrangement may apply and the firms may split commission as agreed. The seller should confirm the effect on the fee and service in their own contract. That is why this profile describes a seller’s listing broker with limited scope rather than yacht brokerage as a whole, including for a boat berthed at Club Nàutic Port de la Selva.

You do not need to find the right yacht alone. European Yacht Brokers helps buyers at Club Nàutic Port de la Selva shortlist boats, ask the right questions of listing brokers, negotiate, and organise the survey and sea trial, with a local broker nearby and a team that speaks your language.
The buyer’s broker represents the purchaser in the hunt for a yacht. A typical search starts by establishing the buyer’s plans, preferred yacht type, size, budget, location and priorities. The broker can research the market, identify boats worth considering, gather details from listing brokers, review available records and help the buyer compare. Previews and remote viewings are offered by some buyer brokers, so the client can narrow the choice before travelling.
When the buyer has found a yacht, the broker can help prepare and negotiate the offer, explain the steps and deadlines and liaise with the seller’s listing broker. Expect a purchase agreement, deposit and escrow arrangements, an independent marine survey, specialist inspections, a sea trial and further discussion once the inspections are done. The broker helps coordinate these steps and keeps communication moving, but the surveyor assesses the yacht, and the broker does not replace an independent technical inspection.
Buyer services at yacht brokerages typically take in research, negotiation, survey coordination, sea-trial arrangements and assistance with closing documents. Examples: Curtis Stokes & Associates helps buyers research and preview yachts, prepare offers, negotiate and find surveyors and documentation support, and HMY coordinates the survey and sea-trial stages, post-survey discussions and closing. The service on offer varies, which is why the buyer should ask what the broker handles and what is left to 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 Club Nàutic Port de la Selva should ask these questions before appointing a broker.

Prefer one broker to manage everything? At Club Nàutic Port de la Selva 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 full-service yacht broker can run a sale from the first conversation with the owner to completion. The work may include assessing the yacht and its asking price, preparing photographs and particulars, advertising, answering enquiries, arranging viewings, passing on offers and helping the parties take an accepted offer through contract, deposit, survey, sea trial and closing. The agreement may also cover documentation, escrow arrangements, delivery and other practical matters. The listing and sale documents should set out the precise service.
Dual agency means one broker represents both parties in the same transaction, as the Yacht Brokers Association of America describes it. In this profile the broker deals directly with the buyer and represents buyer and seller alike. It differs from a listing broker who helps a buyer with the sale but remains appointed to represent the seller. Ask the broker to explain the relationship before you make an offer.
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.
Check who pays what. The commission is often addressed in the seller’s listing agreement, yet arrangements vary and a buyer should find out whether a separate fee is owed. Full-service is about how much work the broker does; dual agency is about whom the broker represents. Extensive support through a transaction does not mean the broker represents both sides.
European Yacht Brokers directs its Spanish operations from Valencia, with brokers serving coastal regions and many marinas throughout the country. Start with the Valencia team, who will connect you with the broker responsible for your area. The regional network lets us arrange for a broker to reach any Spanish marina in under an hour; the local broker can arrange a visit to your boat and provide a no-cost valuation.
Our people are where your boat is. Delegates and agents work across every coastal region of Spain, namely Catalonia, the Valencian Community, Murcia, Andalusia, the Balearic Islands, the Canary Islands, Galicia, Asturias, Cantabria and the Basque Country, so a client at Club Nàutic Port de la Selva in Catalonia can have the local broker visit the boat and talk things through quickly, while the Valencia head office stays your single point of contact.
A valuation starts with the boat’s details and condition: download our Sales Mandate and Evaluation Sheet and we will study the market for you. The result is a precise, evidence-based valuation informed by the sales data available to us for boats worldwide over the past three years, and it is an assessment of likely market value rather than a guarantee of the sale price.
When you appoint us, the regional broker takes over the work of finding a buyer, or of helping you find the right boat, and guides you to completion and the successful transfer of funds. Boats are advertised on over 20 platforms across Europe, which gives them visibility beyond the Spanish market; international buyers can often help secure a stronger price than local demand alone. And because our brokers speak six languages between them, we can connect you with someone who speaks your language.
