Frequently Asked Questions

What are the benefits of trading in my boat instead of selling it myself?
When you trade in your boat to a dealer, you immediately transfer ownership and no longer have to worry about selling it or the liability of owning it. Top Notch Marine also have the resources to improve your boat’s condition, making it more attractive to buyers. At Top Notch Marine, we handle everything—from sprucing up your boat to finding buyers through our network of active customers. Plus, you avoid the hassle of showing, sea trials, or surveyors. In some states, there’s even a tax benefit—you will only pay sales tax on the price of your new boat minus the trade-in value.

What is the difference between trading in my boat and working with a broker to sell it?
When you trade in your boat, the dealer takes ownership immediately, and you move on to your next adventure. With a broker, you continue to own the boat until a buyer is found. Trading in means a faster, hassle-free process, while using a broker will most likely take longer and may not get you a higher price after tax savings.

Where will you advertise if I sell my boat through you?
At Top Notch Marine, we list your boat on major platforms like Right Boat, Face Book, Boats Trader, boats.com, and YachtWorld. We also utilize digital marketing strategies, such as email campaigns, web ads, and SEO, to maximize your boat’s exposure.

What do I need to trade in my boat?
Simply have your title or registration documents ready. Being prepared with these documents can streamline the trade-in process.

How do I start the trade-in process?
It’s easy! Just contact Top Notch Marine. A member of our sales team will walk you through a trade-in evaluation and help you explore options for your next boat. We’re here to make the process smooth and enjoyable!
