Customer Comments

I just wanted to write and thank you very much for all your help in making the purchase of our new boat a really enjoyable experience. Your patience, communication and understanding were fantastic and I couldn’t recommend the Boatshed Essex highly enough. Nothing was too much trouble and it was great to deal with a company that was knowledgeable and efficient. Thank you.

- Seller (December, 2020) | Boatshed Essex

Many thanks Chris and Jayne for all your hard work selling my rib. The whole process was straightforward with 5 star service from start to finish.

- Seller (December, 2020) | Boatshed Essex

As a first time buyer, and little knowledge on the process on buying a boat, both Jayne and Chris guided me through the journey from start to finish. They were so approachable that I didn't need to worry about asking the "silly" questions and felt at ease when I did so. The two of you have been stars…

- Buyer (December, 2020) | Boatshed Essex

Working with the team at Boatshed Essex has been a pleasure. Jayne and her colleagues have been diligent in keeping me informed of progress, and have managed every part of the process professionally and efficiently. I’d have no hesitation in recommending Boatshed Essex to vendors or purchasers.

- Ray (October, 2020) | Boatshed Essex

I must write that I have been particularly satisfied with the care and attention received from yourself during the process. Nothing was too much trouble and I am delighted that the boat was sold within a few weeks as I was concerned about winter setting in. An excellent service – thank you so much.

Hi Jayne and Chris, thank you so much for all your help with securing Jade 7 for us. We are both over the moon.

Further to Jonathan's recent testimonial regarding our purchase of Femme Fatale, I am writing to add my thanks to you both. Jonathan very succinctly summed up the excellent service from day one that you both provided and I completely agree with everything he said! During the latter stages of the procedure (the Saturday the deal was confirmed), Jonathan. Mary, myself and Rosemary were all together and the conversations that took place were on loud speaker. Rosemary, who obviously hasn't met you yet was impressed with the measured answers and advice that you responded with to all of the questions and comments raised. It felt as though you were really working hard on our behalf to secure a fair and comprehensive sale. In our time we have had to deal with many 'salespeople', and not once did we feel you were anything other than completely professional, transparent and honest with us. That means a lot. We are looking forward to the next stage of the journey to bring Femme Fatale down to Dartmouth. As Jonathan said, we also would not hesitate in recommending your services. With kind regards.

- Chris and Rosemary (September, 2020) | Boatshed Essex

Thank you so much for helping us complete the purchase of our new boat. I must say the professionalism and customer care you have shown us from start to finish of the purchase process has been exemplary in every respect. The process started with a call between us where you gave a very honest opinion of the condition of the boat and enabled me to make a rapid decision to come and view. As you know, we came a long way to view the boat and you gave us undivided attention throughout the viewing and professionally facilitated both sides getting to an agreed offer price subject to survey before we left. This meant a lot to us as we were then sure we had secured a potential deal and our trip was worthwhile. More importantly, we never felt there was any ‘game playing’ and whilst you were acting for the vendor, you were also very fair indeed to us. Following the viewing, you then were very supportive in getting the survey organised and completed and furthermore, you went the extra mile in helping us with some further queries post survey, which without your help we would have found very difficult to complete from such a distance. This was excellent service as you both were so willing to help with all of our questions and queries. Even now, when the sale is complete, you are both still helping us in the most professional and helpful way to facilitate getting the boat down to its new mooring in Devon. I can not recommend Boatshed Essex highly enough to anyone who is thinking of using their extremely professional services. Chris and Jayne, you have done us proud. Many thanks.

- Buyers (September, 2020) | Boatshed Essex

Thank you both very much for the successful sale of our boat, of which we feel was carried out by yourselves in a completely professional, diplomatic, and friendly way. We realised through the sale process that nothing was too much trouble for you both and you were willing to help us with anything we asked of you, once again many thanks.

- Paul and Linda (September, 2020) | Boatshed Essex

Just to say thank you for the help and advice we received when purchasing our new boat through Chris and Jayne. I thoroughly recommend them.

- Roger and Linda (September, 2020) | Boatshed Essex

Thank you for helping us secure a beautiful boat to cruise in. Your helpfulness and dedication is a rarity in this world, you didn't just offer your help before the purchase but also after by answering my questions and doing everything you could to help us settle in. I would not think twice about doing business with you again and will recommend your business. Special thanks to Jayne from my husband and I.

- Buyer (September, 2020) | Boatshed Essex

Thank you for selling our boat. You were hard to get hold of on the phone sometimes but you were probably with other clients. Anyway, the service from you Jayne and Chris was brilliant and would definitely recommend you to others selling (keep up the service very professional). Thanks again, stay safe. Hopefully will see you soon, all the best.

- Ray and Sadie (September, 2020) | Boatshed Essex

In our dealings with Jayne and Chris, we found them both most helpful. The whole process proceeded smoothly and efficiently. They answered all questions promptly. We would recommend them to anyone wishing to sell or buy a boat.

From our initial enquiry to the completion of the sale the whole process has been handled professionally and efficiently. Samantha has substantial knowledge of boats and the boating industry. Her experience has enabled us to sell our boat quickly and with minimum effort from ourselves.
