Boathouse Auctions

Headquarters:
Fairfield

2017

Sometimes it just takes too long to sell a yacht. That’s why we built Boathouse Auctions – to help yacht owners solve for the problem of time. We put the control, in terms of sale date and minimum acceptable price, in the hands of the seller and yacht broker, while at the same time providing attractive opportunities to buyers able to act with urgency.

Our online yacht auction platform offers owners of high-quality yachts an alternative to what could potentially be a long traditional market sale by allowing them to discount some carrying costs in exchange for a time-certain solution that delivers equivalent net proceeds, adjusted by time.

Our approach combines the benefits of traditional brokerage with the added value of time certainty and the competition and urgency created by an auction. Recognizing the limitations of the traditional yacht resale model, we built a platform that provides an alternative approach. Introducing the first and only fully-integrated online boat auction platform designed to remove friction in the sales process for yacht buyers and sellers.
