Joe made the process easy, answered every question and took the time and care to assure that I’d made the right deal.

Tim J. | 2014 Crownline CR330

I wanted to convey to you my appreciation for all of the work, diligence, effort and overall “OUTSTANDING” performance that Eddie Sul put forth that culminated in the July 14, 2020 sale of Andante.  

After my wife and I decided to use a brokerage to sell Andante in late 2019, you assigned Eddie to assist us.  With an overhaul and complete survey in September/October 2019.  I knew the boat’s market and insurance value.  Eddie and I agreed on a value that we both believed was realistic for presenting an excellent purchase value and to facilitate sale.  We were off to the races. 

I immediately liked Eddie’s business practices.  He was fastidious with his photos of the boat and sale brochure.  Most importantly, he communicated with me - stayed in touch, but was in no way frivolous or overbearing.  He didn’t overdo it.

Andante immediately attracted interest, and then the Pandemic hit.  COVID-19 had arrived and all travel ceased, active interest came to a halt.  Eddie worked the internet, followed-up on previous interests and expanded exposure to other advertising outlets.  Most importantly, he continued to communicate with me.  COVID-19’s challenge was not to discourage him.  

His efforts were SUCCESSFUL!  An interested buyer on the west coast was seriously attracted to Eddie’s photos and description of Andante and called.  Eventually, as you know, he traveled east during the Pandemic, and the deal was done.  

He was a seasoned, knowledgeable, resourced boater that could continue to maintain, improve and update the boat. No, it was not quite the price I wanted, but a solid compromise, and I particularly liked the buyer’s plans for the boat and future adventures. He was the type of buyer you want if you wish your vessel another caring and capable owner. This purchaser was ONLY located through Eddie’s efforts.  He remarked that Eddie’s representation proved “spot on” and was the only reason he traveled cross country to see it. 

Eddie:  Good work ethic, diligent, capable, attentive and a very good communicator with both buyer and seller.  As for me, he made a good teammate. I give him a big “Bravo Zulu” and commend him for his outstanding performance.

Reid and Diane | 34' American Tug 2004

Dear Leo:

We wanted to thank you for your hard work and dedication to selling our 34' American Tug.  We could not have been more blessed when connecting with a broker whose kindness, expertise, and dedication to selling HEATHER MICHELLE was always your priority. You gave us hope and confidence that there were interested buyers around the country and almost immediately you located one.  Amazingly, you not only brought Charlie and Mirinda to see the boat and learn about her, but you had a contract ready to go in 48 hours.  

You are indeed a superlative man; your knowledge of American Tugs led you to finding HEATHER MICHELLE a new good home.  The new owners are wonderful people who will love and care for her. Your guidance in getting her ready for showing and a sale was very much appreciated and you walked us through the process with patience and without pressure . You made us feel part of the team. 

We will always be in gratitude for your expertise, honesty, direction, and above all your kindness and spirit. 

With heartfelt thanks,

 

Reid and Diane | 34' American Tug 2004

DEALING WITH EDDIE SUL WAS A TRUE PLEASURE!

Dealing with Eddie Sul was a true pleasure. Eddie is an old school professional where a man’s handshake means more than the terms and conditions hidden somewhere in the paperwork. From start to finish Eddie was “all in”, all day and every day . This included weekends, after hours , and also holidays. It never seemed to matter to Eddie. Always responsive and with a most positive and upbeat attitude.

I live in Canada and closed a purchase deal for a 38 foot Express Fisherman via long distance. I relied on Eddie to represent my best interests through the whole process and cannot say enough about the quality of the representation Eddie provided. It’s not a good story... it’s a great story. I would strongly recommend to anyone that they use Eddie Sul if at all possible.

My next boat will be purchased through Eddie. That’s a given!

Tom and Susan | 2016 American Tug 435

We have known Leo Thibault for a long time.  He has represented many American Tug buyers and sellers.  We engaged Leo to sell a 34-foot American Tug a few years ago.  He made helpful suggestions for staging the boat and was very good at communicating with us as to potential buyers.

When we decided to sell our 2016 American Tug 435, Leo was the only broker we considered. Leo has a large number of brokers working for him at Edwards Yacht Sales and a wide network of contacts in the marine industry.  Again, Leo was excellent in keeping us informed throughout the sales cycle.  He also helped us with good advice during the offer negotiations.  We ended up with a sale that satisfied everyone.  Leo’s years of professional experience and his outgoing personality make him an excellent resource and a great partner.

Thanks for all your help, Joe.  You’re a true professional.

Hello Brett,

My name is Tom S. Today I closed on a new to me boat Sea Star. Kevin Barber acted as my broker. I wish for you to know that Kevin did an excellent job throughout the process. He was extremely knowledgeable and what's more important when he did not know the answer he went out and found it. He was very cautious in his approach and made certain the boat was "as advertised". His presence at the survey was very beneficial and added greatly to our comfort level. Your company did a very efficient job with documentation and closing documents. I will definitely call on both Kevin and Edwards Yacht sales if, God Forbid, I buy another boat.

Best Regards,

Matt and Dale G. | 2006 Sea Ray Sundancer 280

We first contacted Joe about a Sundancer 320 he had listed. We were looking to sell our 280 and move up in size. Joe expertly managed the prompt sale of our 280, and we were so impressed with his professionalism, we asked him to represent us as out agent as we pursued a 310 listed by a broker/dealer. Best decision we could have made. Joe diligently represented us in what turned out to be an extended process of survey and repairs…and right through a successful closing. His patience and attention to detail was remarkable. We found not only the best broker for the job, but a trusted and reliable partner who counseled us through the purchase process. Whether you need to sell or purchase your boat, we recommend Joe without reservation. Thanks, Joe!
