If you are new to the yachting
experience, it may be confusing as to which broker will help you
find the ideal vessel. If you are a longtime yacht owner, you can
attest to the many details a broker must
negotiate on your behalf. While many
brokerages claim to offer the best
service, it is easy to be led astray by well-intentioned, yet
overzealous brokers who are primarily focused on closing the sale
quickly just to earn the commission and go on to the next deal. The
difference at Meridian Yachts is
our brokers keep your interests in the
forefront of all negotiations. We have many
exceptional brokers with years of experience to handle any
issue that may arise. We will remain by your side long after the ink
on the contract has dried.

The vessels we sell are
privately owned. However our brokers will present all offers to
vendors including those that may involve a vender taking a trade as
part payment. We do not take trades on the new
vessels Meridian represents.
Normally, we do not
transport and deliver. However, we can help you coordinate a move
with qualified companies specializing in transport and delivery.
Meridian Yachts conducts a lien and title search on each
vessel it sells, for more information on specific
vessels contact the listing broker.
Offers are written
subject to inspections. Surveys and mechanical inspections are
conducted following an accepted offer. You have the option of
renegotiating your offer if the inspections are not to your
satisfaction in the event of deficiencies.
Your
offer should be written subject to your satisfaction with a sea
trial. If you have specific performance criteria, discuss it with
your broker. Your broker can help you select the right boat.
