Customer Comments

I was very pleased with the first class professional service provided by Tim Kingston and Dan King, who successfully found a buyer for my boat, within a reasonable timeframe, and secured a sale price which I considered to be fair and appropriate. I would have no hesitation in recommending this firm.

Tim and Dan were BEYOND helpful and super responsive. They went above and beyond for our family when we got ourself in a bit of a pickle with a boat and needed help to know what to do. We will from here on out use Boatshed for all our sales and purchases after working with this exceptional team.

Just to say thanks for help getting the boat sorted. You were a pleasure and professional to deal with over the rest ! I may tidy up a sell and if I do I'll be back to see you !

Sam has just facilitated the sale of my boat and from start to finish was superb service. I liked her honest approach and that she did the best for both parties to strike a fair deal. I would definitely use her again and would happily recommend her.

- Rob, Portsmouth Harbour | Boatshed Portsmouth

This was a private sale with Boatshed being introduced to help formalise the completion late into the cycle. The owner and the buyer were both new to selling and buying boats - and I do not believe we would have reached an agreement without Boatshed’s involvement. On a second hand boat there is none of the certainty related to a new boat purchase. The survey can and did throw a spanner in the works. There are so many aspects to the sale ranging from financial to technical and emotional it is a real skill to bring both parties together and complete. Whilst the broker represented the seller I also felt that my point of view was properly represented and we ended-up with a fair result all round.

- James, Portsmouth Harbour | Boatshed Portsmouth

Absolutely seamless and pain free experience buying this boat. Thanks very much Sam, it is clear that you have done this before. I would highly recommend.

- The 360-degree video tour was brilliant. | Boatshed Brighton

Very pleased with all the service we’ve received from you.

- Tony, January 2021 | Boatshed Brighton

Having decided to sell my boat I instructed Boatshed to sell the boat for me and was contacted by Sam. Initially I thought it quite expensive but did not have the time to sell the boat myself. The selling of the boat was far from straightforward and a few problems were encountered along the way. Sam dealt with these problems for me and if she could not then she would point me in the right direction. Sam kept me up to date and was brilliant during the whole process. Having looked back, the fee charged by boasted was well worth the money as had I had to sort out the problems myself I would probably still own the boat and would be pulling what little hair I have left out. Cannot recommend Sam enough.

Communications were excellent.

“A helpful, friendly and knowledgeable team at Boatshed Portsmouth. Despite all the challenges of COVID, lockdown and Christmas! Sam and her team were able to help arrange a smooth, safe and extremely speedy process. From first viewing to handover in under 4 weeks! Quite remarkable when having to contend with Christmas, New Year and Lockdown too ! “

Btw the videos and pics are great on the website, so easy to check everything about the yacht before purchasing it.

Samantha from Boatshed Portsmouth led me through all the processes to sell my boat quickly, was extremely helpful and worked really hard during a difficult time to achieve a good price

- Paul, W. Gosport Premier Marina | Boatshed Portsmouth

We bought our boat through Boatshed Portsmouth and were very happy with the service we received so when we decided to sell the boat, we had no hesitation in using them again. Samantha talked us through both processes every step of the way and always responded quickly to any questions we had. She was always contactable, open, honest and a pleasure to deal with. We would have no hesitation in recommending Boatshed and would certainly use them again. Thanks for all your help and we wish you a happy New Year.

- Pip and Kev Wichman. Gosport Premier Marina | Boatshed Portsmouth

I have just bought my yacht through Boatshed Portsmouth. Despite the ongoing restrictions of COVID, Sam made it an absolute pleasure to do business keeping me updated and informed throughout the process by phone and email. No question was too difficult and she dealt with all aspects from the owner, marina and surveyor through to arranging lift out for inspection. Given difficulty travelling and distance this made sure the whole experience went seamlessly. Definitely 5 stars! I would strongly recommend the excellent service.

Cheerful, positive, helpful, knowledgeable and pragmatic - what more could someone want from a yacht broker. Thanks for your help!
