We have owned several boats over the years and consequently have dealt with many different brokers. Without doubt Great Haywood Boat Sales is by far the best we have dealt with. At all stages of the selling process the team was prompt and efficient. Steve and Ellie were knowledgeable and took time to explain the process and the paperwork in a professional and friendly manner. Our queries were dealt with quickly and phone calls answered promptly. An important aspect of Great Haywood’s service was that all viewings were accompanied by a team member and this was adhered to. The proof of this companies’ service was that my boat was sold on the first viewing, within 10 days of it first appearing on the Great Haywood website. I will certainly use them in the future and strongly recommend Great Haywood Boat Sales to others seeking to buy or sell a boat.
You have recently completed the sale of my narrowboat ‘Arkady’. Could I just say what a pleasure it was dealing with your company, Great Haywood Boat Sales, and in particular. The service you fulfilled from start to finish was friendly and professional, and I would recommend your service to anyone. Many thanks and best wishes to you for the future.
Firstly I would like to thank ‘Great Haywood Boat Sales’, (Ellie and her Team) for excellent service in what turned out to be, a very quick sale of my beloved canal boat ‘ROOTHING’. Throughout the whole process I found Ellie and her team to be very helpful and considerate as well as being expedient in all related documentation, etc. and especially as I reside in Canada with a 7 Hour Time Difference. The showing of my boat on their Website was very well put together and made it easy for the Buyer to see what the boat looked like, as well as its condition. I will have no problems in recommending ‘Great Haywood Boat Sales’ in the future, albeit by this format, or in verbal conversation. I wish both Ellie and her Team many more successful Purchases/Sales in the future, and many Happy Cruising Miles to the new owners of ‘ROOTHING’.
Having finally decided to retire from boating we contacted Great Haywood Boat Sales after a recommendation from Kings Bromley Marina where we were moored. From the outset of the sale it was handled professionally, and efficiently by the friendly sales team. From the initial evaluation the sales process moved forward smoothly. Within 7 days of Princess being put up for sale we had an offer for the full asking price. Communications, whether by phone or in person, were always a pleasure and we were kept up to date with the sales development by their excellent website. The decision to sell Princess, after 22 years, was not taken lightly and the handover day was an emotional one for all concerned. It was, therefore, a relief to know she was going to a good home. When we finally met the new owner we were pleased to see he was as excited about her as we had been. We would have no hesitation in recommending Great Haywood Boat Sales to anyone wishing to buy or sell a boat.
I came to Great Haywood Boat Sales as a novice with a particular set of wishes, the staff were courteous and professional in allowing me to fulfil my dream. When I was unsure they were supportive and considerate, moreover that support continued after the sale had gone through, and I am happily moored at Great Haywood Marina and the staff remain courteous and professional, those sentiments seem to shine through.
I have just returned from two weeks abroad. I was pleased to see that the sale proceeds for Katie May had arrived in our bank account. Maxine and I would like to thank you and your team for the business-like way in which you handled the sale of Katie May and the purchase of Tiddy Oggie. Both transactions went through very smoothly. I was particularly pleased to be able to agree a sale on Katie May on the same day I picked up the keys for Tiddy Oggie – it doesn’t get any better!
A very big “thank you” to all the team at Great Haywood Boat Sales for acting as perfect matchmakers in the sale of my boat “Errol”. Keeping me informed and aware of every step along the way they guarded me safely through ‘unchartered waters’ and towards a successful sales completion. I’m sad to see “Errol” sail into the sunset but know she has gone to a good and caring home.
I wanted to thank you for your help and support in my purchase of NB Destiny. Your helpfulness and knowledge of the process made the whole experience enjoyable.
