• We will value your boat correctly and not tell you what you want to hear just to get you on our books.
• Free mooring while your narrow boat is for sale on our brokerage moorings. (Subject to availability & T&Cs) You need to supply us with your insurance and Boat Safety Scheme Certificate (BSSC) before your vessel is moored on our brokerage moorings.
• Your boat advertised in some of the leading monthly canal magazines.
• Your boats own dedicated pages within our superb website.
• Your boats own full colour brochure including multi exterior and interior photos.
• All funds are paid into a customers Client Trust Account, which is separate from our business account so your money is protected. Your boat will not be handed over to the new owners until the funds have cleared in our Company Clients Trust Account. The seller will be paid within 7 working days after the handover. (Please see explanation detailed below.)
• Accompanied viewings – we do not just give keys out to your boat to potential buyers. We accompany all viewings so we can answer any questions that a potential buyer may have and we sell the value of your boat.
• We will only show potential buyers your boat if they are in a position to purchase, have the funds available and if it fits their criteria, budget, etc.
• We sell most boats on the first, second or third viewings because we profile potential buyers to make sure that your vessel fits their criteria, budget, etc. It’s not about the quantity of viewings it’s about the quality of the viewings.
• Prompt settlement after completion and handover of the vessel, within 7 working days. Payable from our clients trust account which is guaranteed funds. Please see the Clients Trust Account details on our web site.
• Cash purchase or part exchange on good quality boats.
• Over 70% of boats that we sell are on there own moorings. We can sell your boat from your current mooring.

We have a daily limit that can be transferred out of our clients trust account. This is set up by the bank for security reasons. This is standard practice for all bank accounts.

For example: if our daily limit was £100,000.00 and we handed over 2 boats on the same day for £100,00.00 each, then the 2nd boat would not receive the funds until the second working day.

Sometimes banks also put a hold on large transfers that have been paid into your bank account. Especially, if this is unusual activity regards your bank account. This again is for security reasons. The bank would contact you to discuss the funds before they give security clearance to release the funds. This could also mean a delay in the funds showing in your account. This is why we guarantee that you will receive the funds from our clients trust account within 7 working days.

All of the above are for security reasons and are there to protect your monies.

We are sometimes asked when and which day will the funds be in your account? We are not able to confirm a date or day because of the above explanation and because we have no control over your or our bank.
