The Full Story

Selling Your Trawler With Confidence

Selling your trawler is a significant decision, and the process involves much more than simply listing a price. From selecting the right broker to staging your vessel, pricing it competitively, and navigating offers and negotiations, every step matters. JMYS brings decades of trawler-specific expertise to help sellers achieve the best possible outcome.

JMYS works hard to find buyers for our seller's yachts. We collaborate with other yacht brokerage houses and also represent both parties (buyer and seller) through a dual agency arrangement when requested. The average time for most brokers to sell your trawler in today's market is over one year. Our aggressive marketing efforts, fair asking prices, professional presentation of clean, well looked after yachts and extensive industry networking help to dramatically shorten the listing period and create a win/win where our buyers purchase at competitive prices and our sellers realize a good net return close to their asking price.

“Fair pricing and a clean, fully operational trawler are the keys to success.”

There are many choices a broker can offer a seller to promote their trawler for sale. Finding the best places to creatively expose a trawler for sale and then skillfully presenting it to potential buyers is incredibly important. There is no set “cookie cutter” model that works for everyone and JMYS strives to set your trawler apart from the competition and to attract qualified and willing buyers.

The broker relationship between buyer and seller should be respectful, friendly, helpful and ethical. JMYS treats buyers and sellers with equal professionalism, developing trust and confidence for all parties.

Choosing the best broker to represent your boat for sale is an incredibly important decision. There are so many variables to consider; broker experience and product knowledge, competing boats listed for sale, asking price, location, access for showings, staging, etc. Good quality listings are highly sought after and in high demand.

At JMYS we have developed several proprietary sales and marketing techniques to help our sellers' present their boats efficiently and effectively. We believe it is essential to tell each boats story in a way that is appealing in order to generate interest. We like to visit each boat, crawl all over it, ride on it underway, ask questions of our sellers and do our best to fully understand the unique advantages so that we can explain the virtues when a qualified lead inquires. We are committed to detailed and accurate write ups supplemented with lots of photos.

“We believe it is essential to tell each boat's story in a way that is appealing in order to generate interest.”

Our network of potential buyers and industry sales broker colleagues enable us to cast a wide net with amazing reach. In addition to the major multiple listing services we have successfully used boat shows, open houses, e-newsletters, videos and social media to gain exposure. Above all a well-conceived internet marketing campaign is essential to finding a buyer.
