About Yachts Africa and How We Work

Where the boats on this coast really trade

Many African boats change hands through yacht clubs, charter companies and personal contacts before they ever reach a website. That is the market we work:

• Finding boats: charter fleet releases, private owners, estates and bank sales, matched to your brief
• Checking them: ownership, liens, import status, engine hours from the meters and the honest charter record
• Survey and closing: an independent surveyor, escrow, flag and registration
• Afterwards: haul-outs, refits sent to Cape Town when the job needs it, deliveries on both oceans, crew

What we will not do

We keep no stock of our own, favour no shipyard and never push a bigger boat than the brief needs. If a Cap Camarat does the job better than a flybridge at three times the price, we put that in writing. If the survey says walk away, we help you walk.

Our fee

A purchase runs on a success fee that we agree in writing before the search starts. Service, surveys and deliveries are quoted separately. The first conversation is free: browse yachts for sale, or describe the boat you already own.
