Whether you are looking for the right yacht or want to sell yours at the best price, our team guides you at every step: valuation, targeted search, negotiation, sea trials and closing. Tell us about your project and we come back within 24 hours.
Buying or selling a yacht is a demanding process. Our brokers handle the market research, the technical and administrative details and the negotiation, so you keep control while we take care of the rest.
We define your brief (size, budget, cruising programme), then search the French and international market for the yachts that truly match. Viewings, sea trials, technical checks, price negotiation and full administrative support through to handover.
We provide a realistic valuation of your yacht, present it at its best (photo shoot, polished listing, exposure across our network and international marketplaces), qualify buyers, arrange viewings and secure the transaction through to signing.
From our very first charters, WA Yachting has been crafting the finest holiday experiences at sea for its clients, with family or friends, whatever the destination. To achieve this, we have built an unmatched local knowledge and access to one of the finest fleets of yachts.
Building on this expertise, we now want to take you further, by helping you search for and acquire - or sell - your next yacht.
Thanks to the data gathered over our years of chartering, we advise you on every aspect of your purchase and on the strategic outlook of your investment - and on the true value of your yacht when selling.
We have selected exclusive and private local experts - shipyards, brokers and marine surveyors - to guarantee you the best support on your project.
We move at the pace of your wishes and needs and stay by your side throughout the process, alongside our partner agencies, from the first viewing to signing.
Our teams on the ground, present across each of our destinations, bring you unrivalled local knowledge and responsiveness on the yacht market.
Here are the main stages of the support we offer. This process is fully customisable to your wishes and needs.
We guide you through the essential criteria of your purchase - size, cruising programme, budget. Depending on your goal, we provide projections on the potential charter income of the yacht, backed by WA Yachting.
Once your project is defined, our local partners and brokers guide you through yacht selection, viewings, sea trials and technical surveys.
We introduce our specialist partners to draft the purchase offer and the memorandum of agreement, and to handle the legal and flag matters through to signing.
We work with partners who share our values of transparency and quality to support you with financing and with the ownership and tax structure of your yacht.
