The most important financial factor to a seller should be how much money you receive after your brokerage fees have been deducted. Not focus on how cheap the commission rate is.

Cheap rates normally equal lowers service levels and less money returned for your boat.

We have no upfront fees, hidden packages or add ons, which means we only get paid once we sell your boat. Therefore, we are fully incentivised to sell your boat as quickly as possible and to obtain the highest sales price for you.
