More Than Yacht Sales
We Help You Live the Lifestyle

"Could not have asked for a better broker than Ben Ward.
We were completely new to buying a sailboat and to the cruising lifestyle, so we needed a lot more help than someone who just showed us boats. Ben has lived the liveaboard life himself, and that experience was incredibly valuable. He understood what we were trying to do and gave us excellent, practical advice through the entire process. Buying the right boat took us quite a while, but Ben made a long and sometimes complicated process feel simple and manageable. He even travelled from Stuart, Florida, to Kittery, Maine, on his own to be there for the survey and sea trial. That says a lot about the kind of person he is. He also connected us with other clients who are already living this life. They were very generous with their time and helped us tremendously with decisions about insurance, hurricane planning and what to expect as new cruisers. It is easy to be skeptical of salespeople and wonder whether they are really looking out for you or just trying to make a sale. With Ben, we never felt that way. He truly cared about finding the right boat for us and making sure we were happy with the outcome. We trust him completely and would recommend him without hesitation, especially to someone buying their first cruising boat."

"Our broker, Ben Ward, was exceptional. His professionalism and grace gave us confidence throughout the process. His business acumen shined as we discussed the market value of the vessel and the best way to approach the listing price and, subsequently, during negotiations. He provided sage advice and didn’t push for an outcome we didn’t feel was in our best interests. His marketing was best in class. Not only did he utilize multiple digital platforms and social media, but he put thought into the presentation that not only included the technical data but also highlighted the adventures possible in a vessel like ours. He is truly a pro. You won’t go wrong with him on your side of a sale or purchase."

"We recently sold our Caliber 40 LRC sailboat through Ward Yacht Sales and couldn’t be more pleased with the experience. From start to finish, Ben and Amber demonstrated exceptional knowledge of the market, professionalism, and genuine dedication to getting the job done. They made excellent use of social media and online exposure to reach the right buyers, combining traditional brokerage expertise with modern marketing savvy. Communication was consistent, transparent, and always timely — we felt informed and confident throughout the entire process. It was clear that they both worked hard to present our boat at its best and to attract serious interest. Ben and Amber went above and beyond, handling every detail with care and persistence until the sale was complete.
We highly recommend Ward Yacht Sales to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, professional, and proactive broker to sell their vessel.

"Ben and Amber at Ward Yacht Sales were a true pleasure to work with during our recent yacht purchase. Their professionalism, communication skills and broad knowledge base made what could otherwise be a stressful process much easier - even enjoyable.

We always knew Ben and Amber had our backs and they were always available to answer questions or look at just one last boat. Thank you, guys! Whether you're trying to buy or sell a yacht, Ward Yacht Sales should be on your team!"

"I recently sold my boat through Ward Yacht Sales, and the entire process was smooth and professional thanks to Mitxi. She brought her extensive experience (over a decade in the industry) and genuine care to every step, from accurate valuation and strategic marketing to handling negotiations and closing details. Mitxi was responsive, honest, and went above and beyond to make sure everything went seamlessly. If you’re looking to sell your yacht with a trustworthy team, I highly recommend Ward Yacht Sales and specifically working with Mitxi. Top-notch service!"

"My husband and I have used quite a few brokers over the years in both buying and selling boats. I can say that Ward Yacht Sales is by far the best we have ever dealt with! First, they facilitated the entire closing process when we had a buyer already lined up for our sailboat. The fees were reasonable and the process was smooth and easy for both us and the buyers. Ben and Amber then helped us to find our dream boat. The process was long and drawn out (through no fault of Ward Yacht Sales). Ben's knowledge and attention to detail was superb and the closing probably would not have come to fruition with any other broker. We were out of state for the whole process and knew that Ben had our backs and would be the consummate professional. We are so excited to live our boat dreams -- thank you Ben for helping to make these dreams a reality."
