"I recently completed the purchase of a motor yacht through Ensign Ship Brokers on the Gold Coast. As I live over a thousand miles away in Port Moresby, I was unable to be present for the numerous steps required to gather information, make the decision and consummate the purchase. The brokers at Ensign did a thoroughly professional job acting as a go- between for the negotiations, arranging a survey and engineering report by specialists I selected, and then even locating a delivery skipper and preparing the boat for the trip. You may count me as a thoroughly satisfied customer."

"My wife and I were impressed with Ensign's service. Tony's willingness to discuss with us at great depth various options, explain to us relative novices the various details of yachts and yachting, and acquire information on potential boats was quite surprising and refreshing to us, and indeed very impressive. Even though we in fact ended up pursuing a boat from a different brokerage, Ensign's efforts were invaluable. Thanks Tony and team!"

"Just a brief note to thank Peter and the Ensign team for their help and advice during our recent transactions. Guys, I will not hesitate to recommend you to my friends either buying or selling."

"I was very satisfied with Gordon Ross' professional approach to facilitate the sale of my yacht. He had a sound knowledge of my boat and its capabilities and therefore was able to pass on all the pros and cons to prospective buyers, thereby guaranteeing not only a happy seller but also a happy purchaser with the right boat for his needs. Gordon was always willing to help in any way he could to make the sale run as smoothly as possible and I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone whether buying or selling a boat in the future."

"A special 'thank you' for all the time and effort you put into the purchase of our boat. Most grateful"

"Yacht brokers are like pebbles on the beach. You don't have to look too far to find one. That is of course if you don't necessarily want the best in the business. I myself have been dabbling in vessels from put-put boats to multi million dollar yachts for business and pleasure for the past 60 years. As a result, I have attained a broad range of knowledge based on my experience in relation to yacht brokers that have been from good, to bad and indifferent. If you were to ask me who I thought were the best in the business at this point in time, I would unreservedly state Ensign Ship Brokers.

If you were to ask me the reason for my recommendation, I would not bore you with pages of pros attesting to their grasp of the boating industry, nor would I regale you with tales of past deals done where their performance has been beyond reproach. I wouldn't point to their broad based experience and professionalism in various aspects of marine business. I wouldn't bore you with their impressive sales record, presentation, commitment etc, although all the above are true. I would sum up what they have to offer in two words – INTEGRITY and KNOWLEDGE. If you have a broker with those qualities, there is nothing else you could possibly ask for.

I have consummated a number of multi million dollar transactions through Ensign Ship Brokers and I have absolutely no hesitation whatsoever in giving them my stamp of approval as a business that others in the field should seek to emulate. If you want the best, deal with Ensign."
