It was a great experience working with Palm Beach Yacht Sales. By representative Shelly Melcher was a true pro answered all my questions with clear precise answers was always keeping me informed exactly where we were in the process. When I first decided to sell my boat I wasn’t sure if I should try selling it privately or through a yacht broker now looking back it was a really great decision. Shelly made the whole process painless.

Great place. Good experience. I recommend them.

I listed my boat with Darren at PBYS and can honestly say that the experience from start to finish was seamless. Although my boat was stored at Port Canaveral, Darren never hesitated to make the drive to show my boat to a potential buyer. Throughout the process there was never a failure to communicate and the final outcome was a sale that I felt was fair to all parties. Thank you Darren for your professionalism and a job well done.

Darren was a professional from the beginning and assisted us with all of our questions, timing and extras. He was able to provide advice on several avenues including financing, bottom paint and general operation of the boat. I highly recommend using PBYS for any time you have to sell or buy a boat.

Excellent Service. Darren and Gene took all the guess work out of it. They are men of their word.. sold my boat in 3 months. Found me another boat for a great price. All i had to worry about was enjoying my boat. i cant thank you guys enough will be coming back soon for my next purchase.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Darren recently where my company needed some assistance with a boat he had on the market. I was not a buyer, nor was I a seller, but instead, had a favor to ask of Darren with a Pursuit OS385. Without any hesitation, Darren listened to what I had to say. Before long, he then quickly put his efforts in motion with trying to get me the assistance I was needing for an overseas project we were working on. Darren had nothing to gain, but was willing to help in any way possible after we first spoke. Based on this experience alone, Darren will most certainly earn my business when I decide to put my Pursuit on the market, guaranteed. THANK YOU Darren!

Gene Echols and the team at Palm Beach Yacht Sales are incredible! Gene cared for our boat like it was his own during the listing process. Everything from the listing, showing, offers and closing were handled without a single issue! IF you are thinking of listing OR buying a boat, give them a call! I know that we will! Outstanding job!!!!

I recently sold my boat through James. I could not believe how fast the buyer was lined up, I almost didnt get a chance to to clean it before the first showing. It was sold in less than a week. James was very helpful when there was a few unexpected problems (on my end) and everything went through quickly and easily. His communication was amazing. I am very happy and when I decide to get another boat I will definitely call James.

Gene was very prompt and professional in the buying process of my new boat. He done everything that was expected and more. He dealt with the bank and made the process very easy. I highly recommend calling him for your next sale or purchase.

They sold my Grady White in 2 weeks and they took care of everything, I wish my last boat sale was that easy, I will call them the next time for sure.

I am so impressed with Alejandro and Gen. These guys sold my boat so fast ! We are very happy with their service we would highly recommend palm beach yacht sales

I dont usually spend time writing reviews, but in this case I feel like I have to say a few words about PBYS and particularly about Gene.I met him over 5 years ago. Coming from California and looking to buy a big boat (72 Hatteras), I had a healthy dose of reservations. This boat was a PROJECT and for as excited I was, I also felt very nervous. Gene took his time and answered any and all of my questions and the transaction went through. At this point, as a broker, Genes job was done and he was out of the picture, right? Well, not quite! I spent the next five years restoring this boat and that was a BRUTAL process. Gene was there from day one and his invaluable support was a major factor in the success of this project. From bringing the right people on board to the everyday input of his extensive knowledge and experience, his help was tremendous.He is an honest, straight forward type of person, someone who I got to know as being uniquely qualified for what he does and for anyone to suggest otherwise, it would be dishonest. If youre looking for someone real, experienced, honest and trustworthy, Genes your guy!

My experience with this company was very positive, I would recommend them to anyone in the market to sell their boat, they sold my 32 Intrepid in 5 days!

I recently listed and sold my 42 Yellowfin with Gene from Palm Beach yacht sales and was very happy with him and his service

Gene and the team at Palm Beach Yacht Sales made the process of selling my boat easy and seamless. Glad I chose to go with them. Totally satisfied.

I am writing a review regarding my experience with Palm Beach Yacht Sales (26 foot Southport center console).I recently listed my boat with PBYS. My salesman Gene was very knowledgeable and easy to work with. He worked out a plan to make the boat as marketable as possible for a quick sale.We both took different responsibilities for minor repairs/detailing to get the boat ready to sell.The boat sold for almost asking price within a few weeks on the market.Gene was great throughout the entire process. He made the experience a very positive one.I would highly recommend Palm Beach Yacht Sales to anyone looking to sell or purchase a boat.

Gene echols did a fantastic job of selling my boat. it was sold in three weeks. everything went very smoothly,

Found us a yacht at great price. pre-owned but what an impressive vessel. Thanks Gene #PALMBEACHYACHTS FTW

I will not hesitate to use him again.

I MET GENE THE OWNER OF PALM BEACH YACHT SALES WHEN I HAD MY 48 OCEAN, OVER 20 YEARS AGO. I HAVE USED HIS SERVICES ON SEVERAL TRANACTIONS OVER THE YEARS, HE HAS ALWAYS TREATED ME RIGHT, GOING OVER AND ABOVE WHAT I WOULD EXPECT FROM A YACHT BROKER. I CAN RECOMMEND PLAM BEACH YACHT SALES TO ANYONE LOOKING TO BUY OR SELL A BOAT, THEY ARE VERY KNOWLEDGEABLE AND DO A GREAT JOB.MIKE CUNNINGHAM

I have been in Professional Sales for over 30 years and would never ever and have never treated a client, potential customer or anyone the way these people have treated a good friend of mine. I am shocked at their behavior!!! They are simply out to get whatever money they can with as little effort as they can provide and definitely without guidance, support or professionalism. My friend, unfortunately was too easy in believing their story of support and professionalism without doing his homework first and signed a contract with them and has gotten nothing but profanity, hate emails and phone calls! I dont care how naïve and innocent his thinking was with this company, no one should ever get treated like he has. I have read it and heard it first hand and am disgusted with this behavior. I have never heard such explicit profound language both in writing and in voicemails from any business before and would love to see this company shut down due to their unprofessional behavior!!! Please think twice and do your homework first before signing anything with this company!!!!! Folks, I hope your beginning to see a theme here as well, as a follow up from below!!! Now South Floridians are no good? Hmmmmm, should make you really question whats going on here!! I repeat, do your homework and please beware!!!

I listed my boat with Palm Beach Yacht Sales and was very pleased with their professionalism and my boat was sold in less than 60 days!

I tried to purchase a boat through Gene. I must say this was by far the worst experience I have ever had with a broker from any establishment anywhere at any time. Not only did he never show up he sent me to look at a boat when the owners were not home. I felt like I was invading as the neibors stared at me and asked what I was doing ? The entire transaction was totally messed up. It took 2 months to get it sorted out and still never met the sellers agent. He was never available. Gene tried repeatedly to blame my bank and it was my bank Seacoast Bank that was able to straighted things out for the DMV so I could register the boat in my name. What a mess! I would not recommend Gene who I think is the owner at Palm Beach Yacht sales to anyone. Just poor in all respects.

Good Guys would use them again

I sold my boat with Darren and everything went smoothly he is very knowledgble and always answered the phone and emails with my questions.

Unlike other brokerages I have used in the past, Gene and the folks at Palm beach yacht sales treated me the way I wanted to be treated, always kept me abreast of the situation and took care of all issues that arose, good job!

Palm beach yacht sales got more.
