Customer Comments

From the get-go, both Mike and James have been superb. Their professionalism, knowledge and deep understanding of the complexities involved in purchasing and exporting a boat to Ireland have been first class. They diligently answered every question I had, making the daunting process of purchasing and exporting a boat much more manageable and less intimidating. The lads at Boatshed Wales went that extra mile in every respect. They were incredibly responsive, patient, and proactive. Their dedication to transparency was evident, and most noteworthy was their personal touch. I felt genuinely valued as a client. I would like to express my utmost gratitude to the boys for their exceptional service and for making the process of purchasing and exporting my new boat to Ireland so straightforward and enjoyable. It's rare to encounter such a dedicated and professional team. If you're considering purchasing and exporting a boat or yacht, I can wholeheartedly recommend Boatshed Wales — you won't be disappointed.

- Jamie Wood | Boatshed Wales

Thanks so much. It could not have gone smoother for us and whilst we had to accept less than we had hoped and we might have done better by hanging on but we are content with the outcome. Both Rachel and you were a pleasure to deal with and your professionalism shone through. We would certainly recommend you to others. With best wishes to you for continued success!

- Elizabeth Thompson | Boatshed Norfolk

From the initial contact with Boatshed Isle of Wight, we knew we were in competent hands. Response to questions and requirements were prompt and informed. What is more, once we agreed our purchase, they handled everything including finding and appointing a surveyor, organising lift out and providing relevant insurance advice; In fact, everything an out of area buyer could hope for in a broker. If and when needs be, we wouldn't hesitate using their fine professional services again. Thank you, we are delighted with our new "toy."

Cannot recommend highly enough. It has been a pleasure dealing with Corinne, and I really appreciate all the advice and help along the way! Everything went smoothly, with excellent communication & all processed nice and quickly. Thank you so much!

- Shane - September 2023 | Boatshed IOW

Effortless purchase. Corinne from Boatshed IOW has been great. Many thanks.

- Matthew - September 2023 | Boatshed IOW

From the day our Beneteau First 21.7S was put on the Boatshed website, to the day that the sale monies arrived in my bank account, totalled just 24 days! This was entirely due to the amazing dedication of Corinne, the local representative. She produced an excellent video tour + over 50 photos - all really professional. And we should not forget, this was all done whilst coping with a family bereavement, plus a funeral in the middle of the process. To say she went over and above what is usually expected, doesn't even get close. Thank you so much!

My boat was advertised through Boatshed Hamble in June 2023. Initial interest was shown but most prospective buyers had boats of their own for sale so nothing came of it. July and August are known as 'dead months' so it was not surprising that there was little interest. Once September came and the Southampton Boat Show was on then interest picked up and the sale went through in just over 2 weeks including the survey. This was well organised and I was kept informed as the sale progressed. Well done Nic from Boatshed Hamble.

I dealt with Steve Biggs. Absolutely first class service, nothing was too much trouble. From start to finish, was not stressful in any way. Thanks for everything Steve.

- M B Webb | Boatshed Norfolk

Great, friendly and prompt service from Mark from the start. We were kept up to date about progress on the sale of our boat at all times (even during Mark's honeymoon!). Everything was handled very smoothly and efficiently. We would recommend Boatshed Essex to anyone.

- Linda and Robin - September 2023 | Boatshed Essex

Jayne from Boatshed Essex was very professional and at the same time very friendly with the purchase of our Sadler 25 we recently purchased. Being a complete novice (at 61) it had always been a itch to learn to sail and no matter how simple my questions were Jayne always put me at ease answering which must have been the most basic questions with enthusiasm. I was always kept up to date with negotiating our purchase and letting me know of relevant documents that needed my attention. The whole experience was great and I'm sure within no time with retirement looming I will out grow my yacht and will be back for something newer and larger.

Paul from Boatshed Barcelona recently sold my Windy 8000. Safe pair of hands from start to finish and completed the sale to my satisfaction in a tricky market - would definitely use again and highly recommended.

- T Garnham - September 2023 | Boatshed Barcelona

Jayne and Chris were extremely helpful in taking delivery of my late husband's boat from France and organising her sale. Jayne communicated with me in a very professional and sympathetic manner throughout, for which I am extremely grateful. I would highly recommend Boatshed Essex.

- Owner - September 2023 | Boatshed Essex

Appreciated David’s professional manner complimented by his friendly and pleasant personality. The introduction, viewing and finally sale completed almost without a hitch.

- B L Old - September 2023 | Boatshed Cornwall

Purchased a Windy 8000 from Paul at Boatshed Barcelona. Very pleasant experience, highly recommend for any boat sales in the Barcelona area!

- Jack & Mike Whiteley - September 2023 | Boatshed Barcelona

I was very impressed with the standard of marketing and advertising provided by Boatshed. The photos, video and description highlighted the quality of the boat. This resulted in a quick sale at a price I was more than satisfied with. Their communication throughout the process was excellent. The process was made easy and smooth because Boatshed dealt with all the paperwork and transferred the funds immediately. An added bonus was that the buyer was as satisfied with the transaction as I was. He had purchased the boat purely on the marketing and paid in full before he saw the boat. When he came to collect he was very impressed with the condition of the boat and happy with his purchase.

- Mr J Sadd | Boatshed Norfolk

A wholehearted thank you to Jayne at Boatshed for selling my boat. The service I received was both friendly and professional and a pleasure throughout.

- John C - September 2023 | Boatshed Essex

Je connais déjà quelques courtiers dans divers domaines. Mais ici, je dois mentionner l'aide exceptionnelle, la compétence et le soutien personnel qui dépassaient leur domaine de compétence. Nous nous sommes sentis à tout moment bien conseillés et entre de bonnes mains. Je tiens à remercier encore une fois Pascal Geatan pour son accompagnement et son soutien exemplaires et pour avoir finalement rendu l'achat possible.
