We Don't Stop at Commission
Most brokerages consider the transaction complete the moment funds clear escrow. At Spencer Christopher Yacht and Ship, that moment is the beginning. Our ownership of Spencer Christopher Yacht Management means you have a full professional management infrastructure ready to step in from the day of delivery — mechanical oversight, crew coordination, maintenance scheduling, wash and detail crews, and subcontracted specialists already vetted and on call. Your investment is protected long after the paperwork is signed.
Lifetime Guidance, Not a One-Time Transaction
We are in this with you for the long run. Market conditions change. Ownership needs evolve. Vessels age. We remain your resource — for timing a resale, planning a refit, evaluating an upgrade, or simply answering a question on a Sunday afternoon. Our clients do not graduate out of our care after closing. They remain part of the SCYS family for the life of their ownership.
Valuation and Marketing Built Around Your Vessel
Every listing receives a personalized marketing strategy — not a template. We apply professional photography and videography, targeted outreach to our network of qualified buyers, and placement on industry-leading platforms including YachtWorld and YATCO. Center consoles at $300,000 and up receive the same attention as our seven-figure sportfish listings. Your vessel is never lost in a generic inventory.
A Network That Works Before the Listing Goes Live
After 25+ years operating along the Eastern Seaboard and the Bahamas, the SCYS buyer network is active, qualified, and specific. We know who is looking, what they want, and what they will pay. Many transactions begin before a vessel ever reaches a public listing — because the right buyer was already in our pipeline.
Transaction Management from First Showing to Final Closing
We coordinate every detail: sea trials, marine survey scheduling, escrow management, lien searches, documentation, and closing. Our clients are informed at every step with clear, direct communication — never left wondering where the deal stands or who is handling what.
Seller Reports That Keep You in the Loop
You will never be kept in the dark on your own listing. We provide regular marketing and activity reports covering showing history, inquiry volume, platform performance, and market feedback. When conditions shift, you hear it from us first — with a clear recommendation, not just a summary.
