Buying a Boat

Our goal is to get you the best possible boat that fits your price and objectives. We partner with you throughout the journey to ensure you have a smooth experience during the purchase process and are absolutely thrilled with your boat. We’ve put together a few questions to ensure we all get off to a great start. Once we receive your answers, we’ll be in contact with you in less than 24 hours.

The Buying Experience

Our goal is to get you the best possible boat that fits your price and objectives. We partner with you throughout the journey to ensure you have a smooth experience during the purchase process and are absolutely thrilled with your boat. Here is how the process works:

We meet and discuss the key question: “What are you trying to accomplish?”

01

We identify parameters of boat makes, length ranges, and features that fit that goal

02

We analyze the market of boat(s) to assess market comps and desired specifications

03

We put together a plan to find the ideal boat within those parameters

04

We set a target for price and timeline and begin our active search

05

We explore published boat listings and scan our private network for unlisted opportunities

06

We identify a perfect boat that fits your price and specifications

07

We coordinate with the listing broker and write a formal offer for purchase

08

We help you navigate the diligence period (sea trial, survey process, etc.)

09

We lead final negotiations after sea trial and survey and coordinate repairs as needed

10

We help you obtain financing, insurance, and boat training as needed

11

We help you coordinate any transport needs if the boat is not local (yes, even from New Zealand)

12

We welcome you to our very receptive (and fun!) Weber Yachts community!
