General Info

Many people want an answer to one simple question: How can I sell my yacht? Bollman Yachts offers many services for the yacht seller as well as the yacht buyer. Our goal is to offer the services needed by both buyers and sellers of yachts in order to provide a simple point for clients to accomplish their goals. Established in 1984, Bollman Yachts is a success story in the highly competitive yacht brokerage business, in part due to our location in the yachting capital of the world, Fort Lauderdale, Florida. We sell new and used yachts, both power and sail. We offer boats ranging from 40' to 150'. Bollman Yachts sells millions of dollars worth of boats, yachts, sailboats and megayachts each year, working with people from all over the world on both sides of the transaction. Success: The main reason for our success is our staff of hardworking and dedicated Brokers who have over 100 years of combined marine experience (with most brokers averaging 15 years or more ). This creates a very diverse, experienced team with each broker contributing their unique knowledge and perspective of the different aspects of the industry. We are proud to have a Sundeer/Deerfoot specialist on staff, as well as the North American and Caribbean agent for Van DeStadt Design residing in our office. To ensure our clients have the most up-to-date listings of boats and vessels on the market, our website is regularly updated. We are constantly working on ways to provide the best promotional tools for our sellers, while at the same time offering our buyers the widest selection of boats. Bollman Yachts Lobby Technology: The business of New Yachts and Used Yachts Sales has changed dramatically in the modern world. With the internet playing such a major role in the buying and selling of yachts we have dedicated ourselves to supplying every available tool to our clients. By having an in-house webmaster and IT specialist we can offer our clients up to the minute information and cutting edge marketing techniques. We can showcase your yacht in the most effective ways possible. We utilize all of the available online boat listing services which are not available to the general public. This allows us to ensure sellers that their yacht is placed before the correct pool of buyers, and this allows buyers the opportunity to find the right boat, not just a good boat. We work in conjunction with brokers from around the world and place our listings on the two largest international databases, Yacht World and Yacht Council along with Boats.com and MarineSource.com. This affords prospective buyers the ability to search for the perfect vessel themselves. Additionally we list our vessels on the major European listing services, to leverage the strong Euro for our sellers. This unique approach allows us to guarantee that your Yacht for sale is being placed in front of as many potential buyers world wide as possible. The European sites we currently list our vessels on are: You'll also find Bollman Yachts prominently featured in the major national and international boating Magazines with advertisements in such magazines as Yachting, Sail Magazine, The DuPont Registry, Yachts International, Power and Motoryacht, as well as the trader publications, including Sailboat Trader, Yacht Trader and Boat Trader.
