Ancasta Chichester Boat Sales

I came to Ancasta Chichester to enquire about an Island Packet 485. As the deal progressed it became increasingly complicated due to factors from the survey and a sadly departed owner. Without much knowledge of the intricacies of the boat and the probability of an extensive project, it was certainly difficult. But thankfully, due to the level of professionalism, knowledge and attentiveness to both parties from Jamie and Darcy, the deal came to fruition. The real value of using a broker is not always evident but when things go badly, they are priceless. Thanks, guys. We are convinced that the sale was only successful due to your hard work and professionalism.When the time comes, Jamie and Darcy will certainly be my first port of call.

‘When we went to Ancasta Chichester to enquire about a pre-owned boat it was akin to being reacquainted with some old friends. I was with my family and we were made to feel very welcome.

Both Jamie and Darcy knew the boats history and had clearly had in depth conversations with the then current owner. The presentation photographs and inventory were spot on. Subsequent viewing and the presentation of the boat was a pleasure and we were confident to proceed with the purchase and survey.

Jamie and Darcy kept communication flowing and coordinated the lift out and dates with my selected surveyor. The entire process was directed by the office and we had a fantastic handover experience.

This is the second positive experience and yacht we have purchased from Ancasta. It is not all about the boat, as the prep, the detail and the documentation are super important and this will stand you in good stead when you wish to sell and/or replace. All in all, we could not have asked for anything to be different; it was perfect thank you Ancasta and in particular Jamie and Darcy.’

I am semi retired and received an offer to return to work Overseas so I decided to sell my Nimbus 280, which I had purchased Sept 2221.I discussed the potential sale with Jamie Allwork and decided to go head, the advice was true, non pressured and professional and I felt well advised and in good hands.Along with his colleague Darcy my boat was put on the Market during May 22.My boat was sold in under a week, the price exceeded what I had paid for it six months ago further which indicated the valuation in current market was correct. The handling of the sale by your two employees was totally professional and seamless.Thank you Ancasta [Chichester Office] 

Tillie was an absolute delight to work with in selling my boat. I first contacted her on a Wednesday and had an agreed offer by the next Sunday - a remarkable achievement. The whole process went exceptionally smoothly, thanks to her willingness to coordinate the efforts of all those involved, from boatyard to surveyor, as well as the purchaser and myself. Her communication skills and focus on customer satisfaction are exceptional. I would not hesitate in recommending Tillie to anyone considering selling their boat.

Tillie provided an excellent, professional and very helpful service when we bought our first ever boat from Ancasta Chichester. We would thoroughly recommend her and the brokerage. Gingerxela

Geraint - great result! Thank you so much for your efficient service and for making the whole selling process so pleasant. You are one of the few people I know who works as hard and fast as I used to!

Robin, Thank you to you and Geraint for the professional way that you handled the sale of Cloud Dancer and very best wishes for the future. Kind regards

Hi Geraint and Robin,  that's good news. Thank you very much for the time you have taken to sell Mr Bojangles. We would be sure to recommend you both. Will keep on touch and let you know what our thoughts are moving forward but for now, we are going to take a much needed break next month. Thanks again.
