A Referral is the Best Compliment.
“I had a wonderful experience with Norwood Yacht Sales while purchasing my 1990 53 Viking Convertible. I had a very limited time to get the deal done. Stew represented the boat with perfection, which was important because I was flying in from Michigan. Stew met my brother and me at his brokerage docks in May of 2018 and immediately took us for a sea trial even without a contract. The boat ran flawlessly. We shook hands on a deal, flew back home and in the next week Stew arranged for a survey, new name and hail, and a complete detail of the boat’s exterior to be done. We stepped aboard two weeks later, ready to head back to Michigan by water. The day before we left Stew even drove us around in his car to pick up groceries and some items at West Marine that we needed for the trip. The professionalism and service Stew and NYS provided was exceptional.” - Jeff H. Detroit, MI
“Stewart is awesome! Honestly such a great broker and a truly honest guy who clearly loves his job. He was so helpful in getting our boat sold. He often went above and beyond to help with little issues. I’m grateful and highly recommend him.” - Lisa Adams Milton, MA
“Stew sold my 2014 Jeanneau NC 11 Effortless sale. All details handled professionally and timely.” - Ken Rhoads Marina Bay Quincy, MA
“Anyone can sell you a yacht, it’s the service you receive afterwards that matters. Due to winter in RI Stewart Roach met me 6 months after the sale to demo the boat, then he charted my trip from RI to SC and took every call and checked on me daily during the trip. I’d never buy another boat from anyone else. Stewart Roach is the definition of a yacht broker” - Rick Uber Myrtle Beach North Carolina
“I had a wonderful experience with Norwood Yacht Sales in selling my 2001 46 Hunter sailboat. I first met Stew when he sold me a 46 Formosa Ketch. Over the years we saw each other at boat shows and on the docks so I decided to list the Hunter 46 with his office. Norwood Yacht Sales is highly visible and their picture board is located right on the boardwalk at Marina Bay. I listed Gypsy Soul in late October of 2020 and we had action right out the gate as she was listed in yachtworld and boat trader. I took note that Stew was very co broker friendly and never hoarded the listing. We came close with a few offers from outside brokers but I decided to hold out for a better price in the spring. We ended up selling her for a good price just in time for me to skip out on not having to pay summer dockage. Although Norwood Yacht Sales was splitting the commission with another brokerage firm, Stew was still an enthusiast to meet me on a Sunday and help me bend the sails, set up the dodger and get the boat ready for the sea trial. I cannot thank them enough for their ability to negotiate the deal not letting me get nick picked for minor survey items.“ – Ralf Sperry Marina Bay Quincy, MA
“My wife and I decided to list our 2001 56’ Navigator for sale in the summer of 2017. We originally listed with another broker on Cape Cod where our summer slip was located. Later that fall we moved the boat to Boston for the winter, and felt that we needed some representation with a broker closer to the boat. We met Stewart at the New England Boat Show in February of 2018. My wife and I were both impressed with his knowledge of the Trawler and Motor Yacht market and decided to list the boat with Norwood Yacht Sales. Although some brokers may hoard their listings, NYS was very co-broker friendly and offered the boat out in Multiple Listing, and presented a buyer through another broker from New Jersey. We all worked together in mid-March to coordinate and complete a haul out, inspection and sea trial for the buyer on a cold, snowy day. My wife and I were appreciative that Stewart was able to negotiate some of the survey items and at all times felt confident he was working for us. All and all a very nice experience. We wholly would recommend NYS.” - Pierre and Louise C. Boston, Massachusetts
