If you are looking for your dream boat, do not hesitate to let us know,. In the unlikely event that we cannot find the exact model you are looking for nor an equivalence, we will keep you informed when a new model arrives on the market.
Our function is to preserve the rights of the buyer and the seller (or the rights of either of them if represented by another broker) we lead the transaction until the final point which is the payment of the boat. )

THE SALE PROCEDURE AND THE PURCHASE AGREEMENT

All the boats presented are belonging to an owner who asked us himself or through his representative to sell his boat. We hold, at the disposal of the potential buyer a listing describing the boat as well as it's inventory and photos.
If a potential buyer is interested by the boat and wishes to inspect it himself or through a representative, we organize this inspection.
It is indispensable for the potential buyer to fill and sign a "purchase agreement". This document, signed by both parties is an agreement on a "Selling " price. (As per the offer made by the potential buyer and accepted by the seller) It guarantees to the the seller that the inspection of his boat is going to be supervised by a broker at a preselected date and place , it, as well protects the buyer insuring that the boat he is going to see in the very same boat he selected on our listings.
This document, as well defines the base of the sale, Upon making an offer , the buyer has to put 10% of the agreed price on the escrow account of the broker representing him. This deposit does not only show the seriousness of the buyer but prevents the seller to accept any other offers coming from other potential buyers, even if the offer is superior to the one in effect until a date which has been defined on the purchase agreement.
If this deposit is not made, the buyer does not have a contract nor a reserved boat and the owner is free to accept any other offer.
The buyer then has a set time in order to have the boat surveyed (we can propose a list of qualified surveyors if needed) at his expenses as well as scheduling a sea trial, the owner supplies and pay for the skipper.
At the agreed Date, the buyer has the following options :
He rejects the boat and his deposit is immediately refunded.
He accepts the boat and a date is as well defined in the purchase agreement.for final payment. The owner then provides the relevant documents proving that he owns the boat , that all eventual liens have been paid and is administratively ready to be registered wherever the buyer wishes at his own expenses.The sale becomes final when the owner is fully paid.
