Are you considering selling your boat but don't know where to start? Selling your boat doesn't have to be a hassle. Whether you're looking to buy a new boat or just ready to cash in on your investment - we can help!* When you sell or trade in your vessel with Boat Specialists, we will handle all the time-consuming work of advertising, determining buyers, negotiating prices, and managing the paperwork, so you don't have to. Once we take ownership of your boat, all that is left for you to do is kick back and relax!

There are two options: trade in or sell your boat, motor or trailer. Trade-ins are an excellent choice for those looking to upgrade to a brand new Sea Fox fishing boat or perhaps change pace and go cruising with the family on a Barletta Pontoon. Trade-ins are the most popular way people choose to exchange their previous boat for the boat of their dreams. Trading in your old boat is a hassle-free process and eliminates the majority of work on the part of the customer freeing you up for more time spent out on the water. We will pick up your old boat upon delivery of your new boat, perform a thorough test and evaluation of your craft, and either pay cash or cut you a check for its market value.

For those no longer wishing to keep their vessel, you can also sell it to us directly. Selling your boat is the most straightforward way to get cash for your vessel in the quickest amount of time. After a thorough test and evaluation of your boat, we will make you an offer based on its market value and calculated dealer profit. When you sell us direct your boat, outboard, or trailer, we take on ownership and responsibility of the vessel moving forward.

Once you've decided to trade in or sell your boat, we recommend doing some prep work to get the best price. Preparing and cleaning your boat and ensuring it is free of costly mechanical issues is key to getting the best value on your vessel. Need help getting your boat ready to sell? We can help with that too! Our Parts and Accessories department sells a wide range of boat cleaners and supplies perfect for getting your boat in tip-top shape. For more complex issues, our Service Department can assist with a wide range of maintenance and mechanical matters for your boat and outboard at our 10,000-square-foot service center in Ventura, CA.
