Qualified to represent you

Ancasta brokers are professional and experienced, but most of all, they ensure your total protection throughout the sales process.

ABYA

Association of Brokers & Yacht Agents (ABYA)

All Ancasta brokers are members of ABYA and follow a continuous professional development programme which includes the practical yacht brokerage course and subsequent training. Ancasta brokers subscribe to the strict ABYA code of practice for your total and complete peace of mind.

MYBA

The Worldwide Yachting Association (MYBA)

MYBA is a worldwide professional trade association founded in 1984 by a group of prominent yacht brokers with the aim of promoting standards of professionalism and ethics in the yachting industry throughout the Mediterranean, and ultimately, worldwide. Today, MYBA remains the only organisation in Europe with this focus and enjoys international standing in all corners of the globe.

BRBA

Boat Retailers & Brokers Association (BRBA)

Ancasta is proud to be a member of the BRBA. Other members come from over 150 marine businesses, including boat brokers and retailers, all of whom must adhere to the BRBA Code of Practice. The code is enforced to heighten consumer confidence by providing a set of comprehensive regulations for brokers and retailers.

Energy

Ancasta’s approach is uncompromising and energetic. Striving for industry-leading response times, Ancasta offers its brokerage services seven days a week, including Bank Holidays, to ensure brokers are available to clients when required. Ancasta seeks to grasp every opportunity to promote and sell your boat and the teams offer you continuous feedback on activity and developments in the marketplace so you can make informed decisions.

Professionalism

Successful marketing, negotiation and completion of over 400 new and used boats every year requires professionalism and commitment. When you list your boat with Ancasta, rest assured that your broker will assume full responsibility for the entire selling process. This includes arranging a photo shoot of your boat with the option for a 360º virtual tour, finding a buyer, negotiating the best price and dealing with all of the legal documentation. The process culminates with the secure transfer of title and funds using Ancasta’s dedicated Client Account.

Global reach, local experience

Over 4,500,000 webpage views per annum and 16 offices. Ancasta brings world-wide reach, expertise and professionalism to your boat in your local marina.

Ancasta.com

Ancasta.com is your window to the world’s boat-buying marketplace. Ancasta.com shows live data, so as soon as you list your boat for sale with Ancasta, the boat receives its own dedicated page on the website. This includes a photo library with the option of a 360º virtual tour and full specification downloads. The site, which is extremely easy to navigate, also gives buyers the ability to arrange a viewing, make an offer and send general enquiries directly to your broker.

Extensive marketing network

Working with global online partners, Ancasta has extensive resources, including an in-house marketing team to ensure that your boat is represented all over the world and, most importantly, presented to the right audience in the best possible way.

Ancasta’s database

Ancanet is the bespoke CRM software developed by Ancasta over the past 38 years. This sophisticated software is a result of consistent and significant investment and links together all of the brokers, offices, boat listings and registered buyers.  Upon agreeing to list your boat for sale, the boat specification is loaded onto the system and is immediately available to all brokers across the network who will offer details of your boat to all potential buyers. Although your boat will be managed by your local broker with one single point of contact, the listing will be promoted by over 40 brokers throughout the Ancasta Network across Europe.

We get to work straight away and don’t stop until we’ve found a buyer.

Don’t take our word for it…

Just a very quick note to thank you all for your expertise and guidance in recently successfully selling my Dufour 40. The second boat I have sold through Ancasta. The process can be a bit of a minefield to the uninitiated and your experience was really appreciated, not least mid-pandemic! Many thanks and I hope the lifting of lockdown will start to gradually make your lives a little easier.
John B
Dear Sam
Very many thanks indeed for all your help with this and for so promptly finding the 2005 paperwork! I am very impressed that you were able to do so so very quickly and by the efficiency and organisation of your systems! Thank you for all your help.Best regards
PM
Just a note to thank the team for their help in the purchase Jazz. This was not straight forward since although we had plenty of sailing experience we had little with powerboats. Additionally, the owner was in Birmingham and not able to assist with handover. Your team were excellent in sorting out the issues that we had with the boat and its controls. This was important since we only had an afternoon before our sea delivery back to the East Coast.Our thanks again to the Team.[Lymington Office]
Jim Haylock & Derek Willsher
I have recently completed the sale of my catamaran through Ancasta at Port Hamble and would like to say how pleased I have been with the Professionalism and service that Both Tim and Charles have shown in brokering the deal. The deal started and completed during the Coronavirus Lockdown and has been difficult due to the purchaser living in France. Ancasta went well beyond the norm to keep it all going with live video views and getting a survey done and even managed to find a French delivery crew to get the boat over to France from the Uk to complete the sale.
Gerry
Nick and Tim both did an excellent job finding a buyer for my boat. They continued to use their best endeavours to seek a purchaser through the lockdown and difficult market. As I was abroad when the new owner was found, they spent a great deal of time liaising with the surveyor and sorting out problems . I would without hesitation recommend them to any body wanting to sell a boat in Devon
Stephen Jennings
This was the first time we have purchased a boat , and it was a complicated boat to survey and understand given her size and her age, Nick Bishop and Tim Barlow at Ancasta Dartmouth guided and helped us through the process with an incredible level of detail and support, providing a level of customer service I haven't seen in a long time, absolutely fantastic. I would happily recommend this business and especially those two gentlemen if you are considering buying or selling a boat
Paul Revell
I am writing in connection with the recent sale of my Bavaria 42 Cruiser at Port Solent. This sale was pro-actively managed by Jamie Swaine. From the start, Jamie had everything organised and a number of prospective purchasers lined up. I believe there were three viewings within a very few days of signing your contract. This resulted in an offer and a full survey, which was completed in short order. The sale was formally completed less than a week later. From start to finish, Jamie was efficient, communicative and extremely polite. In my opinion, you should regard him as a great asset to your organisation.
Professor Antony Musker
The service to sell our boat was first class. The valuation was fair, we were kept very well informed and always consulted. The process was smooth and rapid. Very pleased. [Port Solent Office]
