2. Brokerage

This is where we sell your boat on your behalf and return to you approximately 90% of the retail value. We can pay for transport, storage and other charges which can be deducted from the proceeds of the sale. In short you don't have to pay a penny until the boat is sold.

If you choose to berth your vessel at Essex Marina then a standard tariff can be agreed when brokering your vessel.

When your boat comes to us on brokerage we will give you the option of a guaranteed buy in price (you must request this in writing when the boat has arrived) which should you choose we will purchase your boat from you for the pre-arranged figure. You can exercise this option after 12 weeks of continued marketing only. We will of course have to run up and check your engines and see original title paperwork etc before paying on the 12 week deadline. We also reserve the right to withdraw our offer if market conditions change. CLICK HERE to find out what the guaranteed value might be for your boat.
