Boatshed’s online sales platform has pioneered the clear and transparent marketing and sale of used boats online and is the very best in the industry. A tremendous advantage of marketing a boat for sale with Boatshed is that an owner reaches well beyond the locality of the boat.

Every user of Boatshed.com can view every boat across our entire network. These days boats are as likely to be sold to buyers based a very long way away from a particular boat - even in a different country - as they are to a local buyer. We can assist with transporting boats across the country and the world. That is straightforward for a business such as ours. Because of this, it remains our vital ambition to continue to expand our network and, in so doing, to both increase the number and diversity of boats we offer for sale and to present those boat to the widest possible audience. That, we think, is at the heart of good brokerage service.
