Don't see your make? This is only a sample. We consider a wide range of motorboats with outboard or inboard engines. Send us the details anyway.

We consider fiberglass, aluminium, steel and wooden hulls.

Condition considered

Condition Shapes the Offer

Runs well

Clean and ready for the water? We base the offer on condition and market demand — not simply on scrap value.

Needs service

Running rough or overdue a service? Still worth sending.

Won't start

Engine failure or a dead motor? We still want the details.

Damaged

Grounding, water or storm damage? We'll assess it.

Project boat

An unfinished refit or long-term project? Send us the details.

How we value it

What We Look At

For motorboats, the value comes down to a few key factors — and being upfront on all of them helps us give you a more accurate offer.

Hull condition & age

Overall state of the hull and how old it is.

Engine type

Outboard, inboard or sterndrive — each is valued differently, so tell us which you have.

Engine hours & service history

Hours run and how well it's been maintained.

Hull year vs engine year

A 2015 hull with a 2021 engine can be worth more than the year alone suggests — so tell us both.

Trailer & equipment

Trailer with or without — either is fine. Electronics, canopy and extras can shape the offer, so list what's included.

Documentation & registration

Papers, service records and registration help — tell us what you have.

Simple 4-Step Process

What shapes the value

What's a Motorboat Worth?

Motorboat values can vary widely, even between similar models. Make, hull and engine year, hours, condition, equipment and market demand all shape the value. The fastest way to a real number is to send us the details.

Whatever your situation

Unusual Situation? Talk to Us.

Not every sale is straightforward. Finance, missing documents or other complications don't automatically rule it out. Tell us the situation and we'll review what's possible.

01

Still finance on it?

Outstanding finance or lease? Tell us the situation — we'll clarify what's needed step by step.

02

Missing papers?

Lost registration or incomplete documents? Tell us what you have — in many cases it's still possible.

03

Selling for or with others?

Helping a parent, an estate or a boat you co-own? Tell us your role and we'll explain what's needed.

04

Just want it dealt with?

No listings, no viewings, no waiting for the right buyer? Send us the details and we'll take it from there.

Common questions

Motorboat Selling Questions

What motorboats do you buy?+

A wide range — day cruisers, cabin cruisers, bowriders, fishing boats, RIBs and motor yachts, with outboard or inboard engines, with or without a trailer.

More on this: four routes for selling a boat.

Do you buy a boat that won't start or is damaged?+

Yes, in many cases. Condition shapes the offer — boats needing service, with engine failure, water damage or unfinished projects are all worth sending.

Do you buy larger motor yachts?+

Yes. Send the make, model, year and engine details and we'll assess it like any other motorboat.

Do you buy boats without documents or registration?+

In most cases yes. Missing paperwork can affect the process, so tell us upfront what you have and we'll let you know.

More on this: contracts, documents and ownership transfer.

Do you buy a boat that still has finance or a loan on it?+

Yes — this is common. Tell us the situation and we'll factor it into the offer and settlement.

How do you decide the price?+

We look at the make, model, hull and engine year, engine hours, condition and current demand. Photos and honest details help us make a more accurate assessment.

More on this: what shapes a boat’s value.

Do you charge any fees or commission?+

No. Our review and offer are free, there's no obligation, and BoatsHaven charges no broker commission or seller fee.

Who handles collection and the paperwork?+

We do. We arrange collection or transport from the boat's location, whether it's on land, on a trailer or in storage, and we prepare the transfer documents for the sale.

Does it matter where the boat is kept?+

Tell us where it is and we'll confirm the collection or transport options. On land, on a trailer, in storage or still in the water are all fine.

How and when do I get paid?+

Usually by bank transfer, with the amount and details confirmed in the agreement before ownership is transferred. If another method suits you better, tell us and we'll go through the options.
