REVIEW
“Lisa (Insurance) & Ant are what I would say are not only consummate professionals in their respective fields, but also genuine, respectful & considerate in all facets of the/my boat buying process.
Although engaged by the vendor, Lisa & Ant’s support for me, on a few levels is something I have never experienced in 40 years of my own business dealings.
Not only would I wholeheartedly recommend their outstanding services, but I will certainly employ their services moving forward.
Not only would I wholeheartedly recommend their outstanding services, but I will certainly employ their services moving forward.
Thank you for your assistance & support in realising my 20-year dream.”

What to consider when buying your boat?
- Define Your Needs & Budget
What will you use the boat for? (Fishing, cruising, watersports, etc.)
How often will you use it?
Where will you primarily be boating? (Coastal, offshore, etc.)
Set a realistic budget, factoring in ongoing costs like maintenance, fuel, insurance, and mooring (usually 10-15% per annum).
2. Explore Your Options
Research different boat types: motor yachts, sailboats, catamarans, fishing boats, etc. (Catamarans offer space and comfort, motor yachts provide speed, and sailing is often cost-effective.).
Consider new vs. used: New boats come with warranties and the latest features but can have long wait times (up to 18 months). (We currently have a Bali 4.4 arriving soon, if you’re interested in skipping the queue.) Used boats offer a lower price point and immediate availability.
For a good range of quality pre-owned yachts, we suggest having a look at these for sale.
3. Conduct Thorough Research
- Use YouTube, forums, etc.: See what other experts or boat owners are saying about specific models and brands.
- Visit boat shows: Get a firsthand look at different brands and models. It’s the best way to get on dozens of boats and help you decide what brand you prefer.
- A great idea is also to go charter a boat you think you might like and experience it for yourself. A little try before you buy.
- Due Diligence:
Survey & Sea Trial: We can’t recommend enough that you perform your due diligence before your final settlement. Have a qualified marine surveyor inspect the boat before making a purchase (if the seller doesn’t have one provided) and ensure you conduct a sea trial.
- Consult with a Professional:
A qualified broker can actually save you thousands and provide expert guidance, assist with negotiations, provide the professional paperwork and service, and have you on your dream boat seamlessly. We’ve helped hundreds of clients save a lot of time & money on their purchase journey, and our 50+ 5-star Google reviews prove that our experts will ensure you are guided from start to sail and beyond.
Send us a message, and we’ll help you source, purchase and sail away on your dream boat.
