From start to finish.
Brokerage Services
I work extensively with marinas all over the state of Michigan. If you have specific parameters, or just an idea, I can find the boat of your dreams! I handle everything personally for any client I have. Start to finish all inclusive services are the top priority. I will source, and pending your approval: inspect, verify mechanical checks, and negotiate on your behalf.
First boat? or an Upgrade?
Lets be honest... buying your first boat can an amazing experience. searching and tracking down the right boat is very rewarding. It can also be a daunting task. I have aided numerous clients in selling there current boat, to replace it with a vessel more fitting.
Avoid overpaying, avoid replacing, and avoid worry. We work together first to find the boat that fits all your family needs: From speed, to storage, a sundeck for the wife, bathroom for the family, in a manageable package. Don't sacrifice any boating comforts, or any of the excitement! as all things can be found in nearly any budget if you know where to look.
You'll be provided with a selection of boats, updated daily if possible until the exact unit you want is available.
Moving forward I will personally inspect, research mechanical history (if pre-owned), and provide you with overall picture of condition, reliability , and maintenance cost/ schedule.
I also research specific brand/ model/ engine, amongst other mechanical aspects to determine likely issues, or issues other owners have experienced. This is a further attempt that most brokerage services skip. The goal is to rule out notoriously problematic engines, boat hulls etc.
If all is right, and your absolutely satisfied. I can & will negotiate on your behalf. This can include price, potential warranty's and coverages, as well as possible allowances and extra products when possible.
Finally I work with you if needed on delivery. I can also provide marina recommendations for storage and mechanical, maintenance schedules, and even dockage. Also I'm always happy to provide a walkthrough of a specific boats features, and standard boat safety.
This service is for those who truly want the most enjoyable, hassle free experience possible. I'm open to as much input, and involvement as you'd prefer. You as my client are in control of the process 100% of the time!
