Customer Testimonials
This is a story about Silver Linings. We met and worked with Joe to put a handsome DynaCraft Motor Yacht under contract a few years ago… but things fell apart when we had an unexpected illness in the family, and we understandably stepped away from the vessel and our dream. But we remembered Joe for the compassionate and professional service he gave us… so when we resumed our search and found our dream yacht, a McKinna 65 Pilot, we called on Joe to be our Buyer’s broker. Once again, we were heartbroken when we discovered that our dream yacht was under contract. But Joe suggested we submit a backup offer… and to make a long story short, we got the boat! Through every twist and turn, Joe was there for us with options, and solutions… including finding us a slip and a captain to take delivery and take us on a memorable maiden voyage to our yachts new home. Thanks, Joe… you made the entire process easy, and helped make our dream come true!
I want to give a huge shout out of how absolutely wonderful my experiance was working with Kevin Welsh. He is a great person with a wonderful personaility, honest and very hard working. He was agressive and our boat sold within 1 day of being listed. Kevin was professional and very informative to the buyer. He is proactive covering all the questions the buyers had. Everything went very smoothly during the closing and the delivery of the boat was perfect. God bless this man! Having just loss the love of my life and this being such a bittersweet sale he made it go very well. Thank you Kevin! Won't ever forget you and will spread the word if you need to sell a boat call Kevin Welsh.
My husband and I met Joe on our tour of the 2011 Regal 26XO. Coming from a smaller boat purchase that was not brokered and not at all professional, we needed good counsel and assurances that we’d have more protection this time around. Joe walked us through every step of the process…no surprises, and got our deal closed in record timeframe that allowed us to get the most out of our summer. Thanks, Joe!
We met Joe in his role as listing broker of the Sundancer 400 we ultimately purchased a few years ago and were very pleased with the entire process. So, when it came time to resell our beloved vessel, we turned to Joe to list her for us. To be honest, the market was a bit quirky at the time, even with the extensive promotion that EYS and Joe had done through two hurricanes, and we were about to give up on the process. But Joe encouraged us that the right buyer had just not come along…and he was right. In just a matter of days, we had a buyer, a contract, survey, and successful trial run. And just like that, the deal was done! Thanks, Joe for your determination and for keeping us in the game!
Leo was recommended to us by a close friend. We were so grateful to have Leo sell our 42’ Nordic Tug that we had for 23 years. Needless to say, we were very attached to Black Tie. When it came time to sell her, we were glad to have Leo orchestrate the sale perfectly. He met with potential buyers and calmly kept us informed every step of the way. He is most professional, most available, and most attentive. Thank you again for selling BLACK TIE for us. It was a pleasure working with you.
I found Joe to be very professional during the entire selling experience. He was thorough and detailed in his efforts to represent my boat in a challenging sellers market. The result was maximizing the value I was able to receive. His follow up was outstanding from beginning to the completion of sale. Great job and will work with Joe and EYS in the future. Thanks Joe!
Thank you for such organized and prompt assistance through this process Joe!

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