Boat Consignment with Fort Myers Marine
For boat owners looking to get the maximum cash value for their boats, consignment is an excellent option.
Consigning your boat with Fort Myers Marine allows you to take full advantage of our sizable presence in the regional boating marketplace with access to thousands of potential buyers both online and in-person.
The entire process is fast and easy, and you don’t have to deal with the hassles of selling your boat to a private party on your own.
How Consignment Works
We are always happy to buy your boat with cash. However, if you prefer to use our business to stage your boat for sale to another private party, consignment is for you.
Here’s how it works:
-
Give us the details. Tell us everything you can about your boat. If you want us to showcase your boat on our lot or at our retail location, bring it in.
-
Tell us how much you want for it. Every boat has a fair retail price. If you’re not sure how much is reasonable, our valuation experts can help you arrive at a valuation that is likely to attract the most interest while simultaneously maximizing your gain.
-
Let us prepare your boat for sale (if applicable). Most boats, motors and electronics need some minor work before they’re ready to sell in order to maximize price. We can either perform this work for you and deduct the cost from your selling price, you pay for the work outright, or we can sell your boat “as-is.”
-
Wait for us to work our magic. We will list your boat on BoatTrader.com, advertise it within our lot, post it on our website, promote it via our social media accounts,and educate our salespeople on all of the selling features. When we find the right buyer, we’ll take care of all the paperwork including bill of sale, title application, etc..
-
Get paid! After the sale is finalized, we will deduct our standard fee of 10%, and you’ll pocket the proceeds, less any loan payoff. It’s that easy!
Why Consign Versus Selling Privately
First and foremost, consigning your boat through Fort Myers Marine removes the burden of having to find buyers, vett them, host test drives, negotiate, pay for advertising, and complete paperwork. The time and money savings alone are more than worth it!
Secondly, consignment lets you take full advantage of our presence in the southwest Florida boating community as well as our large online presence. Fort Myers Marine is an established retailer and servicer of a huge variety of outboard boats, and buyers are always looking to us to provide them with high-quality boats both new and used.
Lastly, consignment puts you in control of the sales price. You get to decide how much your boat sells for, and you don’t have to wonder if your buyer is going to hold up their end of the bargain. 
With Fort Myers Marine administering the private party sale of your boat, you truly get the best selling experience, highest value for your marine asset, and the confidence that comes from knowing you’re working with the best in the business.
