The Boat Connection took numerous photos of our sports boat without us having to be there, advertised & sold our boat within weeks in March 2008. We have recommended him to another couple & he sold their rib within weeks too, so we can highly recommend him. We will use him next time we sell & trade up!

We availed ourselves of The Boat Connections services in the sale of our motor cruiser.
He was most efficient, i.e. he took photographs of the interior and exterior of the boat. The clients started arriving within the first week of his efforts to sell her and in a short time had sold the boat for us. He always informed us of every move by the various clients. When we sell our existing power boat, he will of course handle the sale.

We would like to say a big thank you for the professional, yet personal way our 28ft sailing boat was marketed by yourselves.
Having sold several boats over the years through other brokers, we can honestly say we found The Boat Connection both professional and friendly in their approach. Never once were we left wondering how a viewing had gone. They were either straight on the phone or emailing the feedback through to us regardless of the time of the viewing.
The advice was constructive in presentation of the vessel and the quality of photographs superb. Adverts were concise with plenty of detail on the boats condition, facilities and potential.
We can thoroughly recommend using The Boat Connection when either selling or purchasing a vessel and will most certainly be using them again when the time comes to sell another boat.
A big thank you to Boat Connection for a job well done!

We bought our Fletcher Arrowbolt GTS 21 last year through The Boat Connection. We bought the boat purely just from seeing photographs on the website and can say that they were a true reflection, we weren't disappointed, the boat looked fabulous.
The Boat Connection did a brilliant job keeping us informed on how our purchase was progressing, paperwork arrived on time and they called when thy said they were going to. We plan to buy a bigger boat in a couple of years time and would consider using their services again. Without hesitation we would recommended their services to anyone who is thinking of buying a boat. Thank you.

My husband and I went to southampton in may 2007 to purchase a boat we had seen on the internet. We contacted the boat connection to arrange a viewing time and discuss travel connections. We were met at the airport and driven to the marina and back later. The company were very professional in every aspect of the visit and very helpful. We talked with the owner of the boat and made our purchase. The Boat Connection handled all paper matters and were very efficient. I wish them well in the future and would not hesitate in using the company again.

We bought our jointly owned Nelson 34 through the Boat Connection.Three former RN seaman officers, not easy to please.The usual range of boat issues arose and negotiations were needed. At all times The Boat Connection acted energetically in a careful, fair and professional manner between the parties enabling a compromise to be reached which both sides were happy with. A few seasons later we remain delighted with our boat. The Boat Connection is run by a knowledgeable and experienced mariner and we would have no hesitation in recommending him and The Boat Connection.
Kind regards

I would just like to thank you and The Boat Connection (UK) for the excellent service and advice you have given me which sold our boat 'La Meuse' in record time.
As you know you came and took over 100 photos of the boat on the Thursday and by the Sunday you had found a buyer. We were very impressed with the fact that you came with the buyers to show them the boat rather than leave me to show them around by myself. The following Saturday the boat had been sold and was with its new owners who are absolutely delighted with her.
We would definitely recommend any sellers or buyers to use your services as you offer a personal and individual approach to clients needs which is very uncommon with today's boat sellers.
Good luck for the future success of The Boat Connection (UK).

The Boat Connection sold my boat during a very difficult time and managed to get almost the full asking price, they worked tirelessly to ensure that the sale was made and kept me informed at all times. Could not have asked for better. Many thanks. Best regards,

The Boat Connection, on the purchase of our boat was most prompt, on all questions and queries that we had, and usually came back with answers the same day. He was very efficient in all the details, and very precise with the Bill of Sale, insurance, berthing, delivery skipper and all the hundred and one things that tend to crop up that a buyer may not think about at the time of purchase. If we buy another vessel they will be our first port of call.

I though it unusual to make a profit when selling my boat, however boat connection did exactly this by selling my Storebro Royal 34. The Company had many enquires from other boats they had sold and the deal was done in days.

I sold my RIB by using The Boat Connection. The process was painless, from the taking of the excellent detailed photographs to the sea trial and conclusion of the sale. It saved me a lot of wasted time and effort, thanks!
