    Katy is the Manager at Ancasta Swanwick and a member of the Prestige New Boat Sales team. Having been raised next to the River Hamble in Old Bursledon, sailing has always been a huge part of her life and she first discovered her passion for boat sales with Ancasta at age 18 when she was a brokerage assistant. Katy spent the next six years gaining invaluable experience when she was asked by a local competitor to set up and manage a new brokerage. In 2011 Katy was very glad to come back to Ancasta, and enjoys heading up the busy Swanwick Office. Katy is also Vice Chair and a Full member of ABYA.
I just wanted to say how impressed I have been with the professional service provided by Mike Cooper and the team at Ancasta Swanwick. Selling my Beneteau GT44 has been a totally painless experience. Good advice on pricing and preparation, together with Ancasta’s sales system produced a buyer in a very short time and Mike drove the process through to completion without delay. All whilst we were out of the country, so I had to leave everything him to him; a very good result all round. So that is a Bravo Zulu for Ancasta (google it!)”
Andy, I would also like to say at this point how impressed I am with both yourself and Ancasta as a whole, our experience from first visit to present has been friendly, professional and efficient. You have made the process of purchase so far a very pleasant experience.
