BUYING · SELLING · NEW BUILDS · MARKET ENTRY
Independent yachting advice, from buying a boat to launching a brand.
Based in Barcelona since 2007, I advise buyers, sellers, future owners, shipyards and equipment brands across Spain and the Mediterranean. I am paid only by my clients, so my market knowledge, technical eye and network work for them alone.
WHY INDEPENDENT
A broker is paid by the seller. An advisor is paid by you.
One client, one interest
Every recommendation is made for the person who hires me: price, condition, contract and timing.
The whole market
Brokers, private owners and shipyards alike. No listing is favoured because of who holds the mandate.
Full transparency
Any commission offered by a third party on your project is disclosed to you in writing and deducted from my fee.
SERVICES
Four missions, one point of contact from start to finish.
Selling
Reasoned valuation, pre-sale refit, pricing strategy and broker follow-up.
1 month, then follow-up
New builds
Owner's representative from yard selection to delivery, with direct access to shipyard decision-makers.
