Customer Comments

There is no better person to ask for advice on buying or selling a boat than Tim Kingston from Boatshed Brighton as Tim is not only ex RN but also a current member of the Brighton RNLI Lifeboat crew, so really knows what he is talking about & he is also a very nice man.

I sold my boat through Boatshed in Brighton. I found Tim Kingston to be professional and knowledgeable. I also bought my boat through Boatshed in Plymouth and found the same experience as a buyer. Recommend.

A successful sale in quite a short time. The whole web based system allows the vendor to if there is any interest. The best bit is at the end, clever software allows exchange of paperwork money and signatures without having to wait for the post. All done and dusted. Hooray.

- Chris W, Haslar Marina | Boatshed Portsmouth

Firstly can we say what a great in depth video you have done for this vessel.

- Lord xxxx, January 2020 | Boatshed Brighton

I absolutely love all your videos. (I even watch the ones on vessels that I will never be able to afford just because they are so good)

Bought a boat recently via Boatshed ... great experience, end to end. Knowledgeable broker in their Suffolk area (where my boat was moored) and the admin from head office in Brighton was smooth and efficient. The business model seems to work well for them - light on overheads, with a focus on local knowledge. I'd buy or sell via Boatshed again; and happily recommend them to others. No link with the company, just a happy sailor.

Thanks, Tim. A really positive experience.

- Roy, December 2019 | Boatshed Brighton

I love the format!...This is much better than pictures of an empty cabin. With you standing there it gives a much better idea of the space available. Well done.

Just a quick note to thank you for all your help buying EOS of Hythe. Taking ownership on Saturday was such a pleasure and I was so pleased at how smoothly it went. I really appreciated your swift and professional work throughout the process and certainly your level of knowledge and experience which of course, really helped with my decision to buy!! Thanks again.

just a quick note to say, thank you for all your help and expertise in helping with the purchase of the Bavaria 32. It is a lot of money and being over 200 miles away I needed someone I could trust and give me full confidence in going through the process. As it turned out, your sound advice, help and ease of communicating made the process stress free and painless. You clearly have a good understanding of yachts and the potential hiccups involved in brokering, all of which do you and Boatshed great credit. thank you,

- David | Boatshed Portsmouth

Tim was helpful through the whole process, as was Dan in Eastbourne. It's great to have so many photographs to look at before making one's mind up to travel. Dan from Boatshed saw to the loading on to transport, which I was very grateful for. From Dom Goldsack

I have just sold my boat through Boatshed. What an enjoyable experience! All made real by Samantha Cassell and team in Boatshed Port Solent. Great communicaton; strong integrity and a calming influence when us blokes sell our beloved boats! You have a strong differentiator for your business; other brokers swim like sharks.

- T Eakins | Boatshed Port Solent

Thank you for all the help you have given on this boat purchase, you have gone above and beyond to make this work, and is truly appreciated. Between us, in the first instance I had contacted a broker in Lancashire and a broker in Scotland near our home, but got very little enthusiasm from either of them to help with a purchase. Hence I started looking further afield. Their loss your gain!

- D C | Boatshed Portsmouth

Many thanks again to Samantha and the Boatshed team for handling the sale of my boat, once again...

- M Pugh | Boatshed Portsmouth

I'm at the Master Mariner having drinks with xxx...she cannot rave about you enough.

- Drew, Nov 2019 | Boatshed Brighton

Having made two boat purchases and one boat sale with boatshed Plymouth, I would strongly recommend them, the service is second to none, I was kept well informed with regular updates via email and telephone . It has been an absolute pleasure doing business with Billy and Joe Hallam. To whom I owe a debt of gratitude.

- Steve, Westerly Konsort Vendor (Nov 2019) | Boatshed Plymouth

We were met by two of your colleagues, Dan and Luke, who were extremely knowledgeable and polite and spent around 2 hours chatting, very enjoyable afternoon, many thanks. Your photos on the web were perfect and showed the boat exactly as it is.

- Paul M, October 2019 | Boatshed Brighton

Friendly and efficient service that helped me sell my boat - photos and video that they put together worked really well.
