Our Services
HUNTING YOUR FUTURE SAILBOAT
AT BLUEWATERSAILBOATS.EU, we know that the ideal boat is often located outside our borders, and many buyers hesitate to cross these borders. Entrusting us with a research mission will give you access to the best sailboats available on the market, while freeing you from the constraints of cultural and language barriers, the apprehension of negotiating and carrying out a transaction abroad, and the hassle of return shipping.
OUR RESEARCH ALSO EXTENDS TO THE EUROPEAN MARKET, INCLUDING THE AMERICAN MARKET (WEST INDIES INCLUDED).
OUR RESEARCH MANDATE (renewable every 3 months) INCLUDES:
- Pre-validation of the criteria in the specifications
- Pre-visit and pre-test at sea
- 1st “Live video” visit
- Video and written reports
- Visit and test with you (2 days of immersion on board)
NEGOTIATING FOR YOU
A unique, win-win approach: fees calculated on success!
Indeed, if you choose to entrust us with the negotiation of your purchase, and in contrast to common practice, we are taking the bet to be only remunerated as a percentage of the difference between the initial asking price and the negotiated price we will secure for you.
We share this gain together!
Any search mandate can be completed with the “negotiation” option.
SUPERVISE THE PROJECT UNTIL DELIVERY
In addition to the research and negotiation services, we can also organize and manage the boat survey for you. Moreover, after the purchase, if you wish to personalize the boat with specific equipment or even undertake refit operations, we also offer to oversee them.
In both cases, we rely on recognized professionals, often partners in national or international networks or belonging to solid and reputable groups. WIN WITH SERENITY.
A COMPLETE EXPERTISE SERVICE TO PROVIDE ALL THE INFORMATION NEEDED FOR THE PURCHASE DECISION AND BETTER NEGOTIATION:
- A comprehensive expertise conducted by a recognized local approved expert. At BWS, when possible, we call on an expert approved by LLOYD’S (including water outlet and sea trial).
- Osmotic analysis within 48 hours of the outlet, with a probe plan and a detailed osmotic report by zone.
- Organization and planning of the expertise, including proofreading and submission of the report.
- Mandate additional trade experts (our recommendation): mechanic, rigger, electrician, carpenter, etc.
SUPERVISE THE CUSTOMIZATION OF YOUR SAILBOAT’S EQUIPMENT OR ITS REFIT:
- Establish the checklist, budget, and schedule together.
- Provide advice on upgrade or customization project priorities.
- Recommend equipment and speakers. Submit comparative quotes.
- Manage the project until delivery.
