You will never find a boat broker who is more interested in your satisfaction/happiness than his profit/commission-great guy this is my third boat from John a 32 ft Intrepid 82ft Sunseeker and 84ft

Thank you very much John, you did a great job getting me a buyer and handled all aspects of the sale perfectly. Thank you for holding the buyers hand and getting him through all of his various hurdles, financing/insurance and getting this closed on a timely basis. You are the best.
Steve
It was a pleasure dealing with John at Aspire Yachts, knowledgeable and dedicated, not often both vendor and purchaser are both pleased with the broker, John guided both parties through the process and got the transaction completed to everyones satisfaction, I highly recommend him.
Brent Campbell
Your need a broker that you can trust! John has been my broker for 7 transactions spanning 20+ years. You will. believe in Capt John in your first conversation. He always put my best interest before his. Isn't that what great captains do?

I was very fortunate to purchase a boat from Aspire Yacht Sales and would highly recommend them hands down to be your partner whether selling or buying a boat over any other broker in the industry. Their lead person and president that I used was John Booysen, and he was not only an exceptional broker, but very knowledgeable on boats and was definitely an expert in the boating industry. I found out later that he also is an experienced captain with decades of yachting experience at sea. That is invaluable and a most when using a broker to purchase or sell a boat with such complexities, unknowns and variables involved. He knew everything about the boat. For example, before he listed the boat, he inspected it thoroughly and nothing came back from the survey 3 weeks later that he didn't already know. That showed his experience and honesty with the listing. There were zero surprises. He also has your back and isn't just trying to make a quick sale. In the service industry, John is definitely what you call an exceptional "full service" broker from the beginning to the end. Heck, he is still helping me with my new boat, and we closed on the purchase almost 3 months ago !! He has truly gone above and beyond. John is also very responsive, extremely organized and gets it all done with no follow up and very helpful in referring the right contacts for title work (definitely do and take his advice on) and everything else that the boat may need. He was actually the one that followed up with me every day. More importantly, he's a great guy, direct and honest. Again, I would highly recommend him and his Company, Aspire Yacht Sales, whether purchasing or selling any type of boat. He is a true gentleman and professional, and it won't matter if you have a $50k or $1 million plus boat. You'll get the same first class treatment.

John was a great asset and salesman. He took charge and laid out a sales strategy that brought significant interest in potential prospects. His process vetted out those truly interested vs those who were there just to kick the tires. While it seemed a long time was actually very short in the sport fish market. As we went through the process he insured that my position was protected from beginning to close. It was very little work on my part and the closure went quickly and efficiently. I can’t thank him enough for helping to expedite the transaction. If your looking to sell or buy I would highly recommend him.

Marcus Armenta, where do I start? This gentleman is where you want to start when you decide to get your perfect boat or yacht. He worked with us for a year. He listened to me and understood our needs. He was always available to preview a boat no matter its location. I lived on the Gulf side of Fla and he worked the East coast and keys. It gave us a wide area to search. Finally a yacht came on the market that was 24 hrs old and he got me aboard almost immediately. Our yacht is amazing. Not only was he patient, but became a family friend and followed up long after we took delivery. If you’re in the market to sell or buy, please consider Marcus.

We worked with Marcus Armenta. He was fabulous! It took us almost a year to find the right boat and Marcus was patient, and very helpful. He didn’t just try to push us to buy. He respected our specific needs. He was so friendly and we totally trusted him. He has the highest integrity and with his experience he is very knowledgeable. I would recommend him to anyone looking for the perfect experience when buying a boat.

Aspire Yacht Sales was with us 100% of the time it took to purchase our yacht. Marcus Armenta explained everything in complete detail, and communicated with us daily. We will always call them for any future purchases. We could not ask for better!

Thank you Marcus Armenta. You went above and beyond to help us sell our boat. You made getting through the paperwork process so much easier.

There are no words to describe John’s service at Aspire Yacht Sale. He is a super friendly and helpful person. We have never met a seller so concerned about everything, and ready to help, even after the sale is completed . He always answers calls at any time of the day and night. Simply excellent service. We recommend it 100%. Thank you John!!!

Kristin Hibler
We worked with Marcus for quite some time before he found us the perfect boat. I've never seen anyone quite put up with the amount of emails I sent to him on a daily basis!!. He was truly amazing and made the buying process smooth and easy. This was our starter boat and when we are ready to upgrade he will be our first call!
Nicolle Profenno
My husband and I just purchased a sailing catamaran from Aspire Yacht Sales. Lucky for us, we had Marcus as our broker. He was able to swiftly navigate all the complexities that popped up throughout our buying process and always reassured us that everything would be taken care of. He displayed punctuality, professionalism, stellar communication skills and was always very personable. We’re extremely happy with our buying experience and highly recommend Aspire Yacht Sales with Marcus as your broker!!
Jennifer Spitznogle
I had a very good experience with Marcus and Aspire Yacht Sales. He walked me through the entire buying process and helped me understand what to expect. My buying process had some unusual incidents happen but through it all Marcus was always quick to return my calls or emails and made sure that everything happened in both my best interest and the sellers. I am now the happy owner of this 1968 50’ Hatteras No Regrets.
