WE WILL MAKE YOUR BOAT STAND OUT
Launching your boat onto the market for the first time is the most important part of getting it sold in good time. Using high quality photography, including drone imagery and walkthrough videos your boat will stand out from the crowd as well as getting exposure on all the major online boat marketplaces.
Equally as important is the initial asking price. We have over 90 years combined brokerage experience in the team and we will make sure you are given the right price to market your boat at. We are proud of our approach whereby we don’t just tell owners what they want to hear in order to win the listing – we will give you honest and accurate advice that ensures you get your boat SOLD.
FREE STORAGE OPTIONS
We are able to offer you free storage at both of our UK offices. Your boat will be displayed ashore at a prime marina location making it easy and convenient for prospective purchasers to view. Many of our customers are “walk ins” and having your boat on site means we can accommodate lots of impromptu viewings. Get in touch to find out more about our free storage offers.

We can buy your boat from you at a competitive trade rate
Although we are better known for our brokerage services, on occasion we may also consider purchasing your boat from you. As our business is self-financing, we are typically more generous than other trade buyers. If you plan to sell a modern yacht or motorboat, it’s always worth checking what we could offer before accepting another bid.
Our trade rates are particularly competitive on UK cruising yachts under 20 years old and between 30-45ft long.

Once again, I sold a boat with the help of Clarke and Carter. As usual over the years, they have been very professional, looking after the booklet the advertisement and paperwork. Thank you again for your outstanding work. Ketill Lord The used boatshow on 26th October was excellent. Very friendly service and a really good opportunity to compare different boats. Well done to the team, especially Tilly 😀 golf The sale process was pretty easy with very little effort required on my part . I sold within about 3 months and received my asking price which was paid into my account immediately upon receipt by C&C. Good friendly service. Dave Prior Excellent service from Clarke and Carter. New management have really amped up the marketing effort by taking great care of how the boat is presented online. It's really important that your pride and joy is properly and honestly represented as you would like to see it and also to give prospective buyers an accurate reflection of the boat. We opted for the drone footage which, again, was very professionally shot and edited. Communications were excellent and once negotiations commenced Clarke and Carter acted with speed to ensure the deal was completed to the satisfaction of ourselves and the buyer. Overall I would award this broker 10/10 for professionalism, service and value for money. Stephen Renard I have just sold my sailing boat through C&C and the service was excellent as was their advice...The pricing after full discussion was realistic and the online coverage comprehensive. The selling process was such that it offered security for both vendor and purchaser and proceeded without a hitch although help was always only a phone call away were it needed.
There is no doubt that the choice of C&C as brokers was the right one for me and on that basis I heartily recommend them to others. Chris Arnold Steve and his crew do what you want as a yacht broker , yes you are right they professionally market your yacht. They make the process enjoyable for both parties. Chris. Mark Tanner The whole team at Clarke and Carter made the process of buying a boat flawless. Angus Charlie and Stephen were extremely knowledgeable, helpful and friendly and responsive to all our questions. We are delighted with our purchase and looking forward to sailing adventures in the future. Raymond Vincent The team were very helpful and the sale went through without any hitchcups Kenneth Kerr Very helpful and professional in arranging viewings of boats. Robert Pope The Clarke and Carter office at Suffolk Yacht Harbour have just sold my yacht. At all times they have been very helpful and talked me through the entire process. As the buyer is taking the yacht away by land they are also helping him organise transport plus getting the mast removed. All in all an excellent service with very prompt payment once the funds were received from the buyer.
