Testimonials

“Dear Rick. I wanted to send a separate message to thank you and Kim for your support throughout this process. It has been not only a very successful process but also a very pleasant one. I felt in very good hands with you and really appreciated your feedback and guidance. I think the Veterans Yacht Sales concept is really good and wish you the best for the initiative. I will make sure I refer you to friends or anyone who asks about selling a boat. Thanks a lot!”

“Sir Rick, Thank you sir, it was a wonderful experience. I will definitely refer my friends and fellow sailors to VYS.

Let’s see, what did VYS do for us besides everything. The biggest compliment I can give anyone is communicator, as communication is the key to the human endeavor. Your verbal, nonverbal communications put me at ease. What you, Kim, and the closing team did very well is put us at ease. You provided a very good captain for the sea trial? Jason communicated with me a lot that day and was a wealth of information as he articulated the by the moment propulsion and steering commands and conditions of the vessel. VYS and the whole team really expeditiously adjudicated the sale process and kept us abreast of everything we needed to know. From the day I first stepped on Harmony, you and the team eased our pain of buying.

Remember, it has been a 6 ½ year search for “The Boat”. We have looked at 17 boats in the last 3 years and have paid for a few surveys. I got good at walking away from a boat.

Thank for being the Sheppard.”

“Hi Rick, I just want to thank you and your team. You guys did a great job from paperwork to haul out; things could not have gone smoother. Everyone was very nice and professional. Thanks again.”

“Rick and his team did a great job marketing, showing, and ultimately closing the sale of my boat at a price that met all my goals!  Of particular note, once Rick delivered the sales contract, he smoothly and expertly managed all the required coordination for the haul-out, survey, and sea trial! All I was required to do was show up to pilot her. I would also like to add a big thank you to the closing team, who guided me through the final closing process and efficiently completed all the necessary funds transfers, registrations, and other administrative details. I can honestly say that this was the smoothest yacht selling experience I have ever had.”

“I wanted to take a few moments this evening and send along an email to sing the praises of the Annapolis Team.  Thank you for your superior customer service, as well as close and continuing coordination through the process of buying my Beneteau 351 Oceanis this Spring.

My buyer’s broker, Rick, worked with me to make sure the boat was a good match, and took time to factor in my family’s desired boating requirements to meet that goal.  Rick was there at every step of the way to interface with the sellers and work through the myriad of things that inevitably come up during such a process.  He is a highly knowledgeable sailor with an easy going demeanor and came through on everything he promised.

The office support team worked with us to complete the documentation and get about the business of sailing in short order, and with an equally engaging and positive attitude throughout.

Thanks again for working with us this Spring and looking forward to growing the new friendships we’ve made.”

“Our dock mates referred us, and we couldn’t have been more pleased with the entire process. Friends for life!”

“From the very first meeting with Rick and Kim, I knew I was in good hands. They made the process seamless and sold my boat for more than I expected. Their whole process was very dialed-in. Experienced, locally connected, and also just genuine people.”

“Thanks for selling our boat in record time!  I will come back to you for my next purchase.”
