Need Recommendations for a GREAT Buyers Broker

[PNW Jeff]

Hey Everyone!

My wife and I have decided to move out of our apartment and become full time live-aboard's!. We are on the wait-list at Shilshole Marina in Seattle and the time has come to start the process of finding our perfect boat.

With that said, we are fairly new to the world of boating (other than a few years of sailing experience) and are in need of a great buyers broker to help us through the entire process of finding & purchasing our first boat!

I've been researching boats like crazy, and we're looking for a motor yacht somewhere between 42'-50' LOA. So, a broker with extensive experience with these types of boats would be ideal.

If anyone has a recommendation on a great buyers broker in the Seattle area, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance everyone! I'm looking forward to becoming a part of this awesome community.

- Jeff

I would highly recommend Martin Snyder of Premier Yachts in Seattle. My wife and I have worked with Martin and found him to be very helpful, knowledgeable and trustworthy. Please say hello to him from us, Keith and Katie Olive.

How is your search going Jeff and did you find a broker to your liking?

On the boat selection side of the things I purchased a Hatteras 53' motor yacht.
Needed upgrading inside. Diesel engines.
The Hatteras Motor Yacht is the most produced power boat ever.

Might want to check one out and get one or use to compare other boats too.

Good luck.
