It is possible to buy a yacht without a broker, however using a broker will absolutely ensure the best possible outcome for the buyer. Consider it a partnership. A yacht broker will work with you from your very first enquiry all the way through to delivery (and often beyond). Their role includes advising on available yachts, creating a short list, arranging yacht visits, undertaking negotiations, organizing sea trials and surveys, and closing the deal. A good yacht broker will get to know you and understand all that you require from a yacht in order to present you with the best possible options for purchase. They are there to make the process clear, simple, and enjoyable.
