A Dependable Service: Trust the experts at Salt Yacht Brokerage

Are you looking to buy or list a boat? Consider your search complete by consulting the hardworking team at Salt Yacht Brokerage Company.

Salt Yacht has been a fixture at Haven Harbour Marina on Swan Creek since 2007. Prior to that, owner Tom Lippincott managed the Tartan C&C office and worked for Atlantic Coast Yacht Sales all at the same location.

"Salt Yacht Brokerage's focus is selling yachts in the Rock Hall area to a worldwide customer base," said Tom. "Our experience in the boat building industry as well as over 20 years in brokerage sales affords us a deeper understanding of the product and how best to take it to market."

The folks at Salt Yacht offer boat appraisals, listing synopses and fully-managed sales, with owner Tom personally running every survey and sea trial, as well as being aboard to help surveyors and buyers understand the systems and nuances of each vessel.

Tom says that the market for those looking to sell is currently very good. He recommends preparing your boat – buyers are looking for clean, well-maintained vessels. For those looking to purchase at this time, patience is key. Record low inventory can be frustrating for buyers. He urges those who do find the boat of their dreams to not delay.

"The current market remains strong for sellers with demand high and used inventory still low," he said. "It is expected that inventory for used power and sail will increase over the next few months."

Tom is joined by his wife Melinda and Connie Ranney, lifelong boater and Salt Yacht broker for 10 years. For more information or to discuss how the Salt team can help you, please call (410) 639-9380 or visit them online at saltyachts.com.
