Waterline Boats / Boatshed Tacoma

With its many aqueous gems including the San Juan Islands, Puget Sound, Hood Canal, the Strait of Juan de Fuca and its wild Pacific Coast, Washington State is regarded as among the best and most beautiful cruising grounds in the world, and Seattle is its boating capitol. Boatshed provides a new and advanced way to buy and sell a used boat throughout Washington State.

Boatshedseattle.com, Boatshed Tacoma.com, and Boatshed Everett.com are brokerage divisions of Waterline Boats LLC www.waterlineboats.com, also dealers for Helmsman Trawlers, Bracewell Yachts, and Krogen Express Yachts. Scott and Lisa Helker, owners of Waterline Boats, looked for a better way to build a strong brokerage business to accompany their new boat lines and found the UK-based Boatshed System. They were impressed with the company's ethics, its advanced customer management software, and the truly unique benefits for buyers and sellers:

- Boatshed displays up to 80 large-format photographs, video, and detailed information about its boats in a standardized, objective presentation. This true and complete representation is informative to buyers and is simply regarded as a better way to present a boat.
- 60+ offices in the international Boatshed system provide instant exposure to a world-wide customer base.
- We have over 700,000 registered Boatshed customers! This is the best illustration of how proactive we are.
- Boatshed feeds all the major MLS sites in North America and Europe to achieve international exposure that far exceeds the resources of other brokerage firms.
- All brokerage transactions are on a "No Sale, No Fee" basis. Owners may continue to sell their boats privately, and no fee is due unless WE bring the buyer.
- We provide owners with regular reports about progress on their sale, and because of our advanced proprietary software we have actual data about internet activity to report, allowing us to fine-tune the marketing plan.

Bottom line -- with our advanced technology, innovative methods, and true international marketing we can find buyers that traditional brokerage methods will not reach.
