SALES

New Build Yacht Sales and Brokerage 

At Yachthub Group, we understand that the business of yacht purchasing may be a daunting prospect, which is why we’re here to help you take the next big step in your yachting adventure. With our in-depth knowledge on boating and yacht brokerage, we feel obliged to be at the front line of your decision-making, making you feel right at home when it comes to boating purchases and practices.

For us, introducing our clients to prospective vessels takes more than a viewing. We want you to experience the yacht for yourself, giving you access to her full potential. We’ll go the extra mile by arranging any travel required to the boat’s location, and you’ll be greeted on board with coffee and finger food, all prepared and served by YHG’s professional in-house crew.

Our after-sales management partner will also be present during your visit, ready to answer any of your technical queries. As the prospective buyer, we also encourage you to ask as many questions as you can to the crew on board.
