Frequently asked questions about yacht broker (FAQ)
1. Can I sell my boat internationally through you?
Yes, we literally have a European network and even sell all over the world. If it makes sense, we also list your yacht on the largest boat listing website in the world: Yachtworld. There is no professional yacht broker for selling your boat that advertises the listing better than White Whale Yachtbrokers. We guarantee maximum exposure and visibility online.
2. How long does it take to sell a yacht through your yacht brokerage?
This depends on factors such as the type of yacht, its state of maintenance, and the asking price. Of course, variable market conditions (also per country) can have a significant influence. We naturally strive for a quick sale. In 2024, we sold just over 300 boats with an average selling time of less than 4 months. White Whale Yachtbrokers is the most active yacht broker for selling your boat, so you can be assured that we do everything we can to sell your boat successfully. We can never guarantee a sale within a certain time, but we do guarantee that you have the maximum chance of success if you go with White Whale Yachtbrokers!
3. What do I need to do myself during the sale of my boat?
We take care of everything. From creating the listing to the viewings and the final handover. Since you can keep sailing during the sales period, we only ask that you keep the boat tidy and organized. We always coordinate a viewing with you in advance, so you know exactly where you stand. You never need to be present at viewings. Only for the final test sail and/or survey is that usually convenient and desirable.
4. Are there start-up costs for me as the owner of the boat?
No, none at all! We come to take photos of the boat, go over the specifications with you, and put together the listing. We place this on more than 30 leading international boat websites throughout Europe and on yachtworld (if useful for a boat) for worldwide reach. All these costs are on us. We do ask for an exclusive sales period of 9 months. We have full confidence that, if we join forces with you, we will be able to sell the boat. That's why we literally work on a no-cure-no-pay basis.
5. How much does it cost to engage a yacht broker from White Whale Yachtbrokers?
Thanks to our collaboration of 15 full-time yacht brokers, we can offer a highly professional and comprehensive service with maximum impact at a very competitive rate. Here is an explanation of the entire process and an overview of the costs that we charge, only in the event of a successful sale: selling a boat. Another reason to choose a professional yacht broker for selling your boat via White Whale.
6. Do you also have a sales marina?
Our specialty for 25 years has been selling from your own berth. However, some White Whale Yachtbrokers offices also have berths for sales at their office. White Whale Willemstad, White Whale Lemmer, and White Whale Croatia offer this option. But the other offices also have the right contacts with surrounding marinas to help you if desired. Regardless of your wishes, we are the right yacht broker for selling your boat. Ask us about the possibilities, email info@wwy.nl.
7. My boat is located somewhere in the world where you don't have an office. What then?
We will also just help you with the sale of your boat then. In most cases, we come to your location to take photos of your boat. However, we will need more help from your side regarding viewings. We would love to make a tailored proposal, we assure you it will be worth it and you will make full use of our extensive network and marketing apparatus! Email us via international@wwy.nl .
8. Is buying a boat safe via White Whale Yachtbrokers?
We manage your money in our separate client account. We check the ID of the seller (both via ID and via bank account) and whether the seller is really the owner of the boat. The seller only gets paid once the buyer has signed the Deed of Delivery, which happens immediately after the buyer receives the boat + keys + papers. Both buyer and seller have maximum security with us throughout the entire process. With more than 5,000 boats sold in the past 20 years and an average customer score of 9.5, you can be sure that you are choosing a truly reliable and thorough yacht broker. We would also love to be your yacht broker for the purchase of your boat.
