The crew at Fleet Yacht Sales has the sales and marketing experience to effectively market your boat and produce a buyer who will purchase your boat at a competitive price. The process of marketing a boat and getting results requires a healthy amount of time, patience, and foresight. Why not entrust the sale of your floating asset to a group of yacht sales professionals who have the know-how, marketing resources, and marine industry connections to produce an able-and-willing buyer for your boat? Fleet Yacht Sales has a proven sales and marketing strategy that generates consistent results. In 2010, Fleet Yacht Sales sold more brokerage boats in the 15-50' range than any other brokerage house in Rhode Island. Why? In addition to our sales and marketing experience in yacht sales, we have a reputation for exceptional customer service and operating with the highest level of integrity. Our straight-forward business approach fosters the trust in our team buyers and sellers absolutely need in order to feel confident in the purchase or sale of their vessel.
Any good marketing strategy starts with diversification. We tap a number of resources in our marketing efforts to sell your boat, which are primarily web-based. Comprehensive listings built specifically for your boat are created on Yachtworld.com, BoatTrader.com, Boats.com, and SailboatOwners.com. These listing platforms are the most-frequented sites by people looking for pre-owned boats and they dominate the search engine results when an individual searches the Internet for a specific boat. Displaying a complete, comprehensive, and accurate listing of your boat on these sites is a key component of selling success.
In addition to our online marketing efforts, we gain tremendous exposure for your boat at each of our annual boat shows. Fleet Yacht Sales has a strong presence at the Newport International Boat Show (September), the Bristol Boat Show (June), the Providence Boat Show (January), and the New England Boat Show in Boston (February/March). Each of these boat shows presents a tremendous opportunity for relationship development and face-to-face contact with a qualified group of people who pay to enter these show and look at boats. The timing of these boat shows in the calendar year is ideal, as they are held during periods when boaters are actively buying and selling. Our prominent, colorful displays of each in-house brokerage listing draw attention from prospects walking the boat shows, giving your boat excellent exposure. Our brokerage display is often the catalyst for a conversation with a new prospect or a current customer starting the search for their next boat.
Finally, Fleet Yacht Sales offers attractive one-stop shopping for boat buyers. Our office is strategically located at Bristol Marine in Bristol, RI--a full-service boat yard in the heart of Narragansett Bay. In addition to a full-service boatyard, we also have access to a number of trusted local sub-contractors, ranging from marine surveyors and electronics installers, to sail-makers and local/long-distance boat haulers.
At Fleet Yacht Sales, we use all the sales and marketing tools technology can supply, but we never lose site of our mission and obligation to provide unsurpassed customer service to our buyers and sellers. Creating an exceptional buying or selling experience is our number one goal and Fleet Yacht Sales' loyal customer base is hard proof we routinely go above and beyond for our clients.
