About
Boatshed....
Our Boatshed network is expanding, we now have offices in Wales, UK, Ireland,
Gibraltar and Spain.
Boatshed.com has a new approach to yacht brokerage; we gather relevant,
accurate and up to date information on all boats for sale on our network.
Every boat is viewed, photographed and evaluated by us. Boatshed sell
a whole range of vessels, everything from rowing boats to motor yachts
and commercial vessels to cruising boats.
How do
we do it?
Boatshed meet every customer face to face who is selling their boat, we
gather information on the boat and owner while aboard the vessel and take
up to 65 quality digital images to back up our findings and impressions
of the boat.
With all this information on the web, Boatshed clients make a more informed
decision on whether to travel to see a particular boat.
Boatshed
Offices
If you visit one of our Boatsheds you can view large screens with high
quality images of the boats, plus up to date weather, tidal and nautical
information. Knowledgeable staff coupled with a professional but relaxed
environment makes each Boatshed office a pleasurable and effective place
to do business.
Boatshed Websites
Boatshed.com is promoted in all the major boating and yachting magazines,
since its launch in 1998 it has won several high profile Internet awards.
Throughout its Websites the Boatshed principles of "simplicity",
"ease of use" and "fast loading" are strictly adhered
to.
Boatshed.com offers Insurance and Finance on-line. Boatshed also offers
other interesting Internet resources; these include cruising tips, news
articles written by individual Boatsheds, plus excellent weather, tidal
and navigation links. This makes Boatshed sites an interesting place to
visit even when a boat purchase is not the customers current priority.
In order to view the detailed photos of each boat, Boatshed sites require
customers to register their details, once the customer has registered
there is no need to remember complicated usernames or passwords, you simply
log in each time using just your email address.
Registration
is FREE and your details are always kept private.
