What our customers say

"Congratulations on the new web site! Praise where praise is due, we have enjoyed a lot of success from advertising through you over the last 3 years and I feel that the new web site will push this success forward still further. We used to reckon that boatshop24.co.uk brought us the most enquiries, followed by yachtworld and then yourselves. However, this has definitely changed over the last year or so, particularly from foreign buyers, and I would now class you as important a website as the other two mentioned. You have kept your price competitive and I am very happy with the value for money I get from you."
- Andrew Makins, Walrus Yacht Sales


"Like many other brokers, I deal with my fair share of internet companies that make promises to adapt to my needs - promises that have still not been actioned. TheYachtMarket take it upon themselves to listen and take our requirements on board and normally have them sorted the same day. A truly excellent service."
- Derek Vaughan-Smith, Coastal Leisure


"Using these kinds of sites all week long, I have found that placing an advert with TheYachtMarket.com is the most efficient and easy way to place or amend an advert on the internet."
- Christian, West Country Marine


"I felt compelled to write, commending you on the TheYachtMarket website.

"Of all the boat sales related websites, I have found yours to be the most user friendly, comprehensive and up to date.

"I will continue to use The Yacht Market for all my needs and will highly recommend you to all my boating associates."
- Mr John Fuller


"May I thank you for the service provided in the listing and the sale of my Princess 45, The whole process was very easy and the details well displayed. I completed a sale within a month of the boat appearing on TheYachtMarket.

"I will now be scanning your pages for my next acquisition!"
- Michael Chittenden


"Many thanks for your help, the boat has now been sold, had 5 interested callers, the second to view bought it!"
- Paul Willis
