Customer Comments

I have just purchased a beautiful narrow boat with the help of John Stokes. John explained and informed me through every step of buying the boat from the first viewing, the survey and to the transportation. He has also been a great help giving me advice on my very first narrow boat. Well done John I say! I would and will strongly recommend him and boatshed in the future. Thank you again for the support and help

Just wanted to say a big thank you. Buying a boat can sometimes be as traumatic as owning one and I'd like to thank you for breaking the mould and making this one a real pleasure. I'm not sure you could have done any more and you certainly made the experience smooth and very painless. If I could ever afford another one I'd certainly be asking you to find it for me. Thanks again, it really was much appreciated.

After wasting over a year and then all summer with other boat yards and advertising ourselves to try to sell we did not expect the level of sales and service that we received when we handed our sports cruiser over to the Boatshed Bristol based at Portishead to sell for us in the winter missing the season and thinking it would just sit there at least until next summer. They actively compared the market with other boats to find it's true value and actually sold our boat for us within a couple of months for a fair price, two days before Xmas day and then contacted us and paid us our money immediately. What a nice Xmas present and what a great service.

May I thank both of you for the most professional and enjoyable experience buying ‘Flipper’ and say what a pleasure it has been for us. No worries or concerns have been left unanswered and Dan, you won’t mind me saying this – you have gone that famous ‘extra mile’ for us, and made the whole purchase a real pleasure.

- Andrew | Boatshed Brighton

I have to say that Dan is working miracles sorting stuff out for us – an excellent ambassador for the company as well as a really nice bloke.

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!!

Dear Boatshed Team, I am writing to express my sincere gratitude for the exceptional service I received from your agent, Tim, during my recent purchase of a barge in Brighton. From the very beginning, Tim was incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and responsive to my needs. He took the time to understand my requirements, provided me with valuable advice, that met all my expectations. Throughout the entire buying process, Tim was always available to answer any questions I had, and he made sure that everything went smoothly. I cannot express how much I appreciated Tim's assistance and support during this transaction. He is a true asset to your team, and I would not hesitate to recommend Boatshed and Tim to anyone looking to buy a barge. Thank you again for your excellent service, and please convey my appreciation to Tim.

- Chris, March 2023 | Boatshed Brighton

Thank you both for a very comprehensive service keeping us informed at all times. I would recommend you to anyone looking to sell a boat.

- Peter, March 2023 | Boatshed Brighton

Top stuff - very very professional and straightforward to deal with. Sold our sailing boat in no time at all. My only regret is not coming to Boatshed earlier during our sale process (we had the boat with another broker before) 10/10 and big thanks to Dan King.

- Nick, January 2023 | Boatshed Brighton

As a buyer, one might expect fair winds with a broker, and so it proved. Very helpful team who arranged everything, in terms of paperwork expected, provision of pictures and video, and visiting the yacht and a sea trial with the owner. All helpful, sensible conversations about negotiation and survey etc.

- Peter, January 2023 | Boatshed Brighton

Tim was very helpful and professional during my purchase. Always got a straight and speedy response to all of my emails and questions. Very happy with the service.

- Paul, January 2022 | Boatshed Brighton

Thank you so much for your awesome efforts in presenting gorgeous boats in such great thought out detail. Your presentations should be a roadmap for others to follow…..
