Customer Comments

I bought a boat through Boatshed Barcelona in 2021. It was a lovely boat but it wasn’t a straightforward sale and it probably would have failed if it had not been for Paul Griffiths of Boatshed Barcelona. Firstly, the survey threw up several defects, of which some were relevant and others not. A large retention was required to complete unfunded repairs and liaison with a top shipyard in the region was required. All of this was done with good grace and good humour by Boatshed and I felt comfortable that I was in safe hands at all stages. Whilst Boatshed Barcelona is paid a commission by the vendor, there is plenty of value in their services for the purchaser. For instance drawing up watertight contracts and finding a good surveyor as well as local knowledge for repair yards are all things where professional help is useful. Paul Griffiths likes to build up a relationship with his clients. It is not just sell and forget and I am sure that can be a win-win for everyone.

Have both purchased and listed with Paul. Always found him to be competent and willing to go ‘ that extra mile’.

- DM | Boatshed Barcelona

I really can’t fault this broker, he was very professional and went to every length to answer my questions throughout purchase. I have bought and sold many many boats and I can only say the service and professionalism was second to none.

After a really bad experience with another broker I found Steve Biggs from Boatshed Norfolk to be the best of the best. Goes the extra mile for you and his service is 110 percent. A really good experience. Buying this boat was a stress free experience thanks to Steve. Thank you so much.

Recently sold my boat using Boatshed in Brighton. Tim and Dan were excellent to work with. The marketing was so effective they found a buyer in under a week and guided me through the process until transfer of ownership in just a matter of another couple of weeks. Thanks guys!!

- Russell, June 2023 | Boatshed Brighton

Our broker Paul was always available, he is certainly not a 9 to 5 guy. The viewing and the correspondence were 100%, I have no problems with recommending Paul Watson and therefore Boatshed.

- Peter Hill, June 2023 | Boatshed Yorkshire

So very pleased we used Boatshed again. Thank you to both Sam and Rachel for a very well done and professional job. Good communication and very efficient.

- M Norton, Feb 2023 | Boatshed Port Solent

Samantha and Rachel did a fantastic job of selling my Dutch Barge within an extremely limited time frame, in a brilliantly coordinated sequence with the assistance of other professional organisations they perfectly liaised with. They are automatically my first choice for brokering boat sales, and I recommend any potential buyers/sellers to get in touch. They won't regret it!

- Michael. Jan 2023 | Boatshed Port Solent

Fantastic service from Sam, I had a multiple broker listing but Sam managed to close the sale. Very efficient and stress fee process. I would recommend. Thanks.

- Damien, Feb 2023 | Boatshed Portsmouth

It was a real pleasure dealing with Boatshed Portsmouth, with Samantha at the helm. She was so knowledgeable, helpfully and polite. I wouldn’t hesitate to buy another boat from them.

- Robert, March 2023 | Boatshed Portsmouth

Sam provided a fantastic service from listing right through to the sale keeping me up to date with every process. Would thoroughly recommend to anyone considering selling around Gosport - Portsmouth area. A well deserved 5 stars. Would definitely use again.
