Experts in Getting Results

Salty helps you to…

Buy Faster, for Less.

You’ve spent a bunch of time researching the boat.

You’ve taken her for a run, and completed a pre-purchase inspection.

It ticks all the boxes and you’ve emotionally stepped aboard.

But you’re not up for the yacht broker pressure and games when it comes to negotiating the price.

That’s where Salty steps in.

Seal the Deal Faster, for Less

You need to understand…

What Salty is Not…

We’re not a yacht broker; we don’t sell boats.

We’re not a buyers agent; we don’t find you a boat.

So, what are we? We’re deal-makers; we work for you, the buyer, to execute a good deal.

Salty is Not a Yacht Broker

Our purpose is to get you the best deal…

We’ve got Your Back.

We handle the price negotiation. When we take the helm, our purpose it to get you a price equal to or lower than you’re prepared to pay.

We work to get your ideal terms too.

So once you’ve found your boat, but don’t want to deal with the broker games, come talk to Salty. We are your safety net against paying too much.
