I have bought and sold many boats and I have never seen a yacht brokerage company work with as much integrity and dedication as Christopher Cooke and his team did with the sale of my last boat. When the sea trial was being performed he made sure that the buyers had food and drinks so that they could just enjoy the ride. It was interesting to note that the other broker didn't consider his client's needs — which to me is the difference in his attitude, and why the sale was successful in less than three months.

Over the years, I've owned eight boats (ranging in size from 19–56') and, by far, the easiest and most pleasurable transactions I've had were the two that Christopher Cooke handled for me.

Chris' integrity, experience and smarts about boats — combined with his calm perspective from service abroad as an Army combat medic and more than seventeen years as a yacht broker — make him the consummate advocate for his clients.

After reviewing many brokers, I chose Christopher Cooke based upon his reputation for achieving results. Thus, I listed my boat with him and we accomplished a sale within three weeks. Could I say more about success?

Chris recently sold my Tiara in this very low-priced and competitive market. This was a challenging sale since my boat was in Jupiter, which caused him extra travel time and effort. After weeding out the usual lowball offers, he found the best prospect and then organized the sea trial and survey. I feel that Chris got the best possible price for my boat with a lot of personal and professional effort.

Chris Cooke recently helped me get a Jupiter 31 and it was a great experience. He sent me several listings in the area and we narrowed it down to one listing. He took the time to drive there and answer questions I had about the T-Top height. Then we both went down for a visual inspection of the boat. After that he scheduled a sea trial, which we both went on, and then I bought the boat. His process was enjoyable and he did a thorough job getting all of the paperwork and forms prior to the sale. Chris Cooke is a professional and you can't go wrong having him as your yacht broker.

I just wanted to thank you and let you know how pleased I was with my overall yacht buying experience with you. You are a true professional. Perhaps the highest level of praise I can bestow upon you is to say that when I am ready to sell my boat you will be the only broker I will contact. Chris, you are prompt, responsive, courteous, professional and honest with me, and I look forward to my future dealings with you.

Being new to the area and purchasing our first boat, we were very lucky to find Chris. His experience, attention to detail and follow-up helped us purchase a great boat — we couldn't be happier. We will definitely ask Chris for assistance when we purchase our next boat.

Chris came highly recommended by his peers in the boat business — key words like hard working, diligent, and professional. I was not disappointed!

We had such a great experience working with Steve Castellini. He made buying our boat incredibly easy and was there to answer every question we had along the way. Steve really knows boats and has so much experience, which made us feel completely comfortable throughout the whole process. He was honest, responsive, easy to work with, and never made us feel pressured. Everything went smoothly from beginning to end. We would definitely work with Steve again and highly recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell a boat.

Last fall, my wife and I decided that we needed something a little bit roomier than our 1997 33' Blackfin Combi and wanted to place her for sale. Now, the big question… who to use? We knew Brian Strauss from our marina and figured he would do a great job for us… and he did! Knocked it out of the park!! Multiple interests in no time flat and saw the sale all the way through. Brian did a tremendous job for us!! We would highly recommend Brian if you’re looking to sell your boat.
