Knowledge is power. And inside knowledge is even better. Surfing on YachtWorld is fun but the smartest shoppers in the yacht industry, just like in real estate, will use a buyer's agent to protect their interests and get the best deal possible. And just like in real estate it costs the buyer nothing. We have access to a database that includes all brokered boats sold in North America since 1995 and, unless your boat is new, that means we can often tell you the last selling price for yours.
We may have firsthand experience with the yacht you are looking at based on 30 years of surveying and skippering. For boats out of your area, we can offer accurate estimates for delivery via land or sea based on our 30 years of delivering and shipping yachts. We will also make a first approach/contact with any selling broker to verify how title is held, how firm the price, logistics for showing, etc.. Where there is a conflict of interest (we do not survey boats where we act as buyer agent) we will give advice as to what two or three surveyors we would recommend, tax implications on taking title, marina options, boatyards, etc..
