Boat sales & Yacht brokerage on the French Riviera

Our role as a yacht broker on the French Riviera

Buying or selling a boat on the Côte d'Azur requires careful guidance,
based on precise knowledge of the local market and professional support every step of the way.
As a yacht broker, Clapi Boats secures the entire process:
estimation based on actual sales, boat preparation, targeted distribution,
organization of visits, negotiation, administrative procedures and coordination through to delivery.

Our approach is based on transparency, efficiency and an active local network.
(ports, shipyards, captain's offices, skippers, concierge services), speeding up
bringing buyers and sellers together. By centralizing all procedures,
we guarantee a smooth, clear and secure transaction, whether you are
owners wishing to sell or future buyers looking for reliable support.

FAQ - Buy and sell boats with Clapi Boats

What are the average selling times depending on the type of boat?

Sales times vary according to boat type, general condition and market demand. On average, a well-maintained dayboat or open yacht sells within 1 to 3 months, while a flybridge or larger yacht may require 3 to 6 months, depending on the season. Clapi Boats adjusts the estimate according to actual sales on the Côte d'Azur to optimize your lead times.

Do you work on an exclusive basis?

We offer both options. Exclusivity means better presentation, higher quality distribution and often faster sales.

Yes, we support many of our customers remotely with comprehensive dossiers, video tours and detailed technical checklists.

Do you provide a valuation for my boat?

Yes, the estimate is free of charge and is based on the actual market and recent sales of similar models.
