SELL YOUR BOAT ON BROKERAGE

As professional yacht brokers our objective is the same as yours i.e. “To sell your boat as soon as possible for the best market price”. We have years of experience of brokering and selling river and canal boats. We follow established professional guidelines and have both Professional Indemnity Insurance and a separate Client Account for handling deposits and sales proceeds. You can rest assured that, if we are involved, the complexities of selling or buying a used boat through us will be handled quickly, correctly and professionally.

RIVER THAMES CLIENTS

We are based at Shepperton on the River Thames which due to its central location on the river and being near London with easy transport links, generates excellent footfall. But we also have a digital mind-set and with great advertising and media coverage, boats sell throughout the UK and EU. Your boat berthed on our exclusive sales berths gives you the very best chance of a sale and potential customers the best opportunity to view and progress a sale.

If you list your boat with us we will give her maximum exposure in the UK inland waterway scene. In addition to our extensive database of prospective buyers, our brokerage marketing programme will include details of your vessel across the following websites:
