Island Spirit Brokerage listing agreement

The Listing Agreement defines the obligations of the Owner and the Broker. This is not an exclusive agreement; the Owner is free to list the yacht with competitive Brokers; however, this can confuse the market and make it more challenging to ensure accurate representation. You can review and download the Listing Agreement here.

Yacht inspection & Photography

We cannot over-stress the importance of this step in the listing process, and we highly recommend that you are present for the yacht inspection. At the end of this exercise, we need to have completed the inventory list and have a good stock of quality photos and video footage of the yacht.

During this procedure, the Broker will also be able to advise you on any actions that you could take that may improve the sales potential of the yacht.
