I recently purchased my first large vessel and was very happy with the service and assistance I received from the guys at Australiawide Boat Sales. Both Detlef and Euan were very forthcoming with all available information and kept me well informed on the progress of my purchase with a minimum of fuss.
Surprisingly this was a very pleasant experience and I would not hesitate to purchase through Detlef and Euan again in the future.

Euan, are you receiving this?

Thank you guys for all the effort put into sell Glacier. You have worked long and hard for the sale and along the way given timely and sound advice. I will be recommending others to seek that advice should I be asked for a reliable and trusted broker.

Mary and I would like to thank Detlef for the great experience in purchasing Piscean Dream.
Detlef only showed us what was in our budget and the kind of sail boat we were looking for.He also helped us by telling us the facts when questions were asked by us and not wasting his or our time like other brokers had done during our time researching and looking to purchase our dream boat.
At no time did we feel pressured and Detlef was very informative and very helpful.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Detlef Or Australiawide to anyone looking for a Broker.

Kind Regards
Rob Bayliss

Dear Euan

RE Sale of Zen

Recently your offce sold my yacht "Zen".

Within a short period of time your office secured a sale.

I found that Detlef and yourself acted in a professional manner in dealing with my transaction, keeping me fully informed as we went through the inpection process, survey and final settlement.

Being in the sales industry myself for the past 30 years one really appreciates good service and follow up.

I can highly recommend your office as a professional marine brokerage business.

Kind regards

Hi Euan & Detlef,
Just dropping you a note to say how pleased I am with all the help I received from both of you in the sale of my Bavaria 34 and with the purchase of my Delphia 40.3 “Lady Lillian”.
I still find it hard to believe that the Bavaria went on your website on the Saturday and was sold on the Monday… for the full asking price. It proves you know what you are doing.
The Delphia is the third boat I have bought through your brokerage and the after sales service and practical maintenance advice has been a big help as my experience with boats was minimal prior to meeting you.
The new sails and folding propeller proved a master stroke as we were able to win a Wednesday afternoon race at our first start after they were fitted.
I really appreciate all the other help and sound advice you have given me over the last few years.
Yours sincerely,
Greg Sawtell.

Hi Detlef

It was wonderful to hear that you arrived safely onto our buoy mooring at Macleay Island with Crimson Tide.

We cannot thank you enough for your excellent service in this matter. It was obviously not something we had expected to have to do and certainly not from this distance. It was our lucky day when we found you; talking to you was a total breath of fresh air and we find it hard to remember when we have received such "old fashioned" service in the very best sense of the term. You made it all seem so easy and for that Stuart and I are especially grateful.

We will go out of our way to recommend Australiawide Boat Sales to all of our boating (and non-boating) friends and colleagues.

Thank you again, and we look forward to having the chance to do more business with you in the future

Very best wishes

Angela and Stuart Sankey

It isn’t often that people in business exceed my expectations but that has been our experience with Australiawide. From my first contact to the time the yacht was sold, I was given accurate and helpful advice on pricing, presentation and how the process would work. It all happened exactly the way you said it would and our yacht now has a happy new owner.

I recently bought a yacht through Australiawide.I dealt with the sales team at Australiawide mainly Detlef Bauer and found his approach and easy manner a great place to start,he was more then helpful and full of information.Thanks again happy sailing..Rob..

Hi Guys,
Many thanks for your excellent work in facilitating the purchase of our yacht. This is a complex process, especially during a prolonged negotiation being conducted by phone and email from another State. We very much appreciated your prompt attention to the details of the process and your unfailing courtesy and professional manner that resulted in the sale being concluded in a timely manner and with all documentation in order.

Fiona and I hope to come up to Manly at the end of June, by which time the antifouling, rigging and upholstery should have been completed and we may be able to fit the new main and go for a sail!

Regards

Peter Harris

Euan,

Lesley and I would like to thank you for your assistance over the last 6 months in arranging the purchase of our NEW Bavaria 38.

We are leaving Australia on the 30th and will be picking up the boat in Slovenia on the 10 February.

Everything seems to be going smoothly and on track.

If any of your clients are looking at buying in Europe, feel free to give them our contact details.

regards

Craig and Lesley

I recently purchased a yacht via Detlef Bauer of Australiawide and would like to offer my compliments on the service.

I was looking for an offshore-capable yacht and was fairly specific in my requirements. The photos of the yacht that caught my attention clearly showed the need for remedial work to bring her up to scratch.

Learning of my desire to sail her out of Australia through the islands to New Zealand, Detlef was careful to convey a balanced opinion of the yacht’s condition and potential. (Only later did he divulge an extensive resume of offshore experience that certainly qualified him.)

Six weeks later when I finally saw the yacht I had purchased sight unseen, I found her to be much as advertised and was pleased with my purchase.

I must also thank Detlef for his untiring service that carried on long after the sale was concluded. This has been especially welcome for an overseas buyer such as myself preparing to take a vessel offshore.

I would happily purchase via Detlef and Australiawide again.

Re purchase of Mondovellla 39 Beneteau

Your service was excellent, Detlef outstanding, and that is what helped us buy the yacht we are now happy to own, congratulations and thank you.

Hello Euan,

I wanted to thank you and your Team at Australiawide Boat Sales for your time and assistance given recentlyt in the successful marketing and sale of our Bavaria 37 yacht "Serenity".

I would like top particularly thank Detlef Bauer for his attention to detail, his ability to communicate in a timely, courteous and efficient manner and for his efforts in securing the sale of this vessel in a difficult and challenging market place.

The whole transaction was conducted in a most professional manner and I would not hesitate to recommend the services offered by your company to any prospective vendor or purchaser, who may consider using Australiawide Boat Sales.

Thanks again for your assistance and our best wishes for a successful business future.

Yours faithfully

We would like to congratulate Detlef who listened to us whilst we explained that we were selling our beloved Steel Sapphire after 10 fabulous years of cruising and exploring the Med, Caribbean and Pacific Islands.
He matched up the perfect couple who were looking for a safe blue water yacht like ours.
Long story short, they saw it, fell in love with it and it was all plain sailing and with all paperwork, surveys and formalities completed we were finished within a month of arriving in the marina and we were able to start our touring in a campervan.
We were quite worried by all the horror stories about selling a British boat in Australia but thanks to Detlef it was quite painless.

We bought our boat through Euan at Australiawide Manly in 2006 and enjoyed cruising the east coast and several months living aboard until we returned to Manly in 2011. Euan and Detlef really match clients to boats.
We had no hesitation in listing our boat with Australiawide. Euan and Detlef handled the sale successfully in a very depressed market in December 2011.
As an out of state client the service from Euan and Detlef was exemplary and we would recommend them without reservation.

Thank you Euan and Detlef for the very professional
and efficient manner in which you completed the sale of our
vessel. The way in which you looked after our interests,
your boat knowledge and honest approach was refreshing.
We would certainly do business with you again.
