Credit where it's due...

A couple of nice emails from recent satisfied customers:
"Deciding that I wanted to sell my sailing boat (Moody 33 Mk1) was difficult enough, especially after the years of enjoyment that I had got out of it. Simon made the selling process easy and stress free. Specifically I was impressed by the marketing, photos and video approach, but also that Simon was completely aware of the state of the market and how best to price my boat accordingly, and was helpful on other small matters that tend to crop up get the sale process to run smoothly. Despite the miserable weather delaying the start of the season, my boat was sold much quicker than I expected, and in line with the market price, which is exactly what I needed. I would be very comfortable to say that people can put their boat sale confidently in to the hands of Simon and Harbour Yachts" - James Donaldson

"Buying and selling my boat through your Harbour Yachts was a pleasurable experience. Your professionalism in depth knowledge and friendly nature made both transactions smooth and trouble free. Without hesitation I would highly recommend your services and would without doubt use your brokerage again. Many thanks" - John Flintoft.

Hatteras - under offer already

A great boat at a good price doesn't hang around on the market for long. The Hatteras 40 featured in my previous blog post is already under offer. It's not been without it's administrative problems, first in tracking down evidence of VAT-paid status, and then in ensuring that the vendor has clear title enabling him to legally sell the boat, but with those issues behind us, and with the sea trial already successfully done, we just have the survey report to await and the boat will be sold.
