BoatsFSBO

Listed boats with them 3 times never had anybody but scammers text immediately after listing. This time Kathy or Howard promised they would sell my boat in 4 months or my money back. Now 4 1/2 months after listing not a single real buyer has contacted me and after reaching out to Kathy she refuses to answer or call back. Yet they are so unorganized they don't even care to check if they already have your boat listed so they continue to call u every few weeks and pitch you their services until u finally get a word in that it's already listed and they just hang up. Do urself a favor keep the $300 or give it to the homeless because the people are scammers

Excellent and prompt service from Howard and BoatsFSBO. I can't say enough good things about them. We received three inquiries within a week or two from highly interested and financially qualified buyers. No tire kickers here. Two were private parties located in the US mainland and one was a charter boat operator who already had three boats operating out of the same marina in Puerto Rico where our boat was based. Unfortunately we didn't have three boats to sell. We went with the existing charter operator who had employees on site who we were able to immediately do inspections and a sea trial. Very smooth transaction.

Howard got my listing up quick. Pictures and description were spot on. I was getting leads from all sites, and eventually sold through The Hull Truth a couple weeks after listing. Fast and inexpensive way to get your boat sold! I highly recommend.

Howard you can remove my C&C 33-2 "Escape" from your listing; she sold as of June 5,2021. It has been less then a year in the works. Thank you for revisions that i sent along to you, and your prompt response at making my listing stand out. I believe the key to our success is your geographical listing on Facebook in the great lakes region. My boat sold to someone in the Chicago area. Thanks, well worth the fee and support at selling without a broker.

I listed a boat for sale with this site over 5 years ago, but was not able to sell the boat through the site. The problem is that ever since I receive weekly ads promoting the site. The unsubscribe button does not stop these emails, and only labelling them as Spam has stopped them showing up in my inbox (my spam box is full of them!)

I had been on about 5 other sites since May with no luck. The manager of my marina told me to post my ad on BOATSFSBO.com and the boat- 1988 Sea Ray - sold to a man in in Cincinnati- I am in Erie, PA. Wow!

Not really sure what Jodie's role is at boatsFSBO.com. We hired her to list our boat 3-4 months ago. Since then she has cold called me twice to see if our boat is still available... the same sales technique she used the first time we spoke. When I tell her she already has our listing she just hangs up. I'll call her back to discuss and she ignores my calls. Is this good customer service? This site seems more of a scam than it is helpful.

Jodie's number is *******780 if you need to file a complaint yourself.

In the year since my boat has been advertised on BoatsFSBO, I have not had one inquiry thru them. Craigslist has been much more effective and is free.

After doing some research I hesitantly reached out to use this service. After considerable thought I knew it was worth the risk.

Today - The sale was amazing and easily was reached to many people. I had interacted over the course of the posting with somewhere between 100 to 200 people. I sold my PWC and have heard from the new owner about their passion for the PWC.

The system that is in-place for BoatsFSBO was designed with much thought. The process eliminates the need for a seller to reach out, post 40+ Ads on 40+ different sites and collectively review each site for any feedback.

The ONE CON - Postings with contact information does leave the door open for the Nefarious Audience. Meaning, in short - people trying to steal from you and not pay you. I purposefully use a Google number which gives me far more control.

Howard communicated well, explained how his service worked and what he needed from from me. I just emailed him pix of my boat and my ad text. Howard then quickly did what he said he would do -- listed my boat on several sites, then sent links to my listing as evidence. When I had questions, he responded quickly by email.

My '70s vintage sailboat sold the first week. Before listing on BoatsFSBO, I spent weeks on Craigslist and received the typical inquiries who led off by asking for a demo ride and how little I'd take. Howard explained that his service typically attracts higher-quality, experienced, serious buyers, and that turned out to be true for me.
