Customer Comments

Many thanks for your invaluable advice and assistance in helping me to conclude the purchase of my Broom 1070. The mechanisms put in place by you through Boatshed went a long way to reassuring me that I was making the right choice of boat. Needless to say if I put the boat back on the market in the years to come it will be through Boatshed. Keeping the vendor and purchaser both happy requires considerable skill and for my part as purchaser you achieved this objective.

Boatshed offer a very professional service, no messing around and they know how to sell . We sold our boat through Boatshed within two weeks of it going up on site. Would highly recommend Ken and Boatshed.

Ken, many thanks for your professional support during the purchase of our Hanse 400. You helped make what could have been a difficult process easier and allowed us to buy with confidence. David and Karen

I recently sold my Hanse 400 through Boatshed Ireland. Ken's support and diligence was appreciated, then when he said he would help with the delivery from Kinsale to Southampton his duty to the cause was confirmed. We had some interesting weather, but he took it all in his stride, his calm and professional helpful nature shone through.

To Ken, I would like to take this opportunity to thank you very much for your assistance with the sale. You provided a really excellent service.

Just to reiterate my thanks to Ken Lawless and Boatshed for the smooth sale of my Hunter 265. I’d not initially thought of using a broker, I must confess, but having experienced the professionalism shown by all concerned, I’d have no hesitation in recommending the company.

Boatshed Brighton have just sold our 6 m speed boat, in a very short time - and achieved an amazing price - well done - thoroughly recommend. Very professional and dedicated.

- Tim, July 2021 | Boatshed Brighton

Thanks for this and all your help. You did a great job – and managed to secure a much better price than I had imagined. Your expertise was much appreciated – and good that you were there to close the deal with xxxxx.

Hi Gary, Just wanted to say our purchase did not disappoint. The boat looked in good condition and I could not find any evidence of osmosis which is always a worry at this age. She started first time and we cautiously chugged to our mooring. Engine looks good and Mal the marina manager instructed us on keeping the drive shaft greased and other matters. Anyway, just wanted to say we are very pleased with our purchase. Thank you for your honesty and going along with our request to buy unseen. We were also amazing at how much equipment came with the boat. We look forward to spending the weekend getting to know her. Hope all goes well for the rest of the summer. David and Sue

Review written on behalf of Lloyd Thompson for the recent purchase of the Arvor 215. From the outset after reviewing the footage posted by Tim Kingston on the Boatshed website, the boat was found to be absolutely as depicted in the footage. Then liaised with Tim Kingston whom was extremely informative and very professional. This made the purchase of my first boat seamless and straight forward. Excellent service all around, well done.

Samantha had successfully sold our previous yacht during a much more difficult market, in 2016, so she was a natural choice to sell our flybridge motor boat. We also knew that a local broker is a major advantage. We had a partnership with Samantha, we cleaned and presented the boat to the highest standard and she took care of the advertising and selling. The boat was sold only a few days after listing. She had a very busy weekend conducting viewings and handling multiple offers. The boat was sold to a buyer who could not view, so he based his purchase on the excellent photos and videos that Samantha provided and a detailed specification, supported by our engine service and boat history. She even filmed the engines being started from cold. She then organised getting the boat ready for transport, by road, to Scotland.

Sam is outstanding. Very responsive and professional. She really knows the market well and made the sale of my boat very easy. Highly recommended.

- Mark. May 2021 | Boatshed Portsmouth

Great service, helped me every step of the way, really good experience. Would definitely recommend!

- Edward. June 2021 | Boatshed Portsmouth

I received very good service from the brokerage team.Mine was not the easiest boat to sell as although very well built, in good order and lacking nothing it was a little known class. The extensive advertising exposure uncovered a few interested parties and a buyer was found. I was impressed by Sam's wide experience and knowledge of the boat market. I was consistently updated in developments and given wise advice.

- Graham. Feb 2021 | Boatshed Portsmouth

Sam was key to the successful sale of my high spec, lightly-used yacht. An international buyer offered a fair price but could not view due to COVID. Sam set up a video viewing for me to ‘show’ the yacht to the buyers. They liked what they saw well enough to complete the sale without actually seeing the yacht. Selling internationally is complex, but Sam knows how to cement a comfortable and safe deal for both sides. She is committed, tenacious, good fun to work with, and highly recommended. Well done Sam!
