Deciding to sell your boat is a significant decision. Not only are there a variety of administrative issues that need to be dealt with but it is also a highly emotional time that can be stressful and confusing.  Dream Catcher Yachts understands the dynamics of selling and purchasing motor and sailboats and has earned the confidence of our customers and cooperating brokerages alike.

We invite you to consider teaming up with us when the time comes for you to sell your existing yacht. Below is an outline of the services that we offer for our listing clients. We take pride in giving our clients the best possible experience both during and after the transaction.

 

Exposure

Having an office in Dana Point Harbor and some of the most visible slips along the main walkway allows us to get your boat noticed. Beyond that we post your boat on the most heavily used brokers website in the world, "Yacht World," along with Dream Catcher's site which averages 14,000 visitors per month. We also directly promote your boat by hosting "open boat" weekends where we place signage and literature on board and invite people to come take a private tour of your boat. This has proven to be very popular!

 

Professional Representation

As licensed yacht sales professionals we honor a strict code of ethics and conduct and utilize contracts and paperwork that has been drafted by the CYBA to ensure protection of both parties involved in the transaction. Having an agent working on your behalf protects you from the many pitfalls that can arise during a transaction of this size.

 

Time

Easily the most frustrating aspect of selling your own boat is the number of times you will take off from work or run down to your boat to show it to someone who is not truly qualified to purchase your boat, wasting valuable time and effort on your part. Allow us to sort through the many prospective lookers and buyers and inform you when we have a "real" offer with money down.

 

Sales

Strategy and experience play a critical role in negotiating the best price for your boat.

 

Experience

List your boat too high and you risk having it sit on the market indefinitely, thereby diminishing its true value. List it too low and you forfeit maximum return on your sale. Our experienced staff will not only assist you in setting a marketable price but advise you during the negotiation to ensure maximum return on the sale.

 

List your power or sailboat with us and begin putting our resources to work for you NOW, giving you maximum exposure online and in our harbor, having the benefit of professional representation and guidance and peace of mind that you are working with sales professionals who hold themselves to the highest ethical and professional standards.  

 

We look forward to working with you during the sale or purchase of your next yacht!
