It’s not a happy time when selling your boat of many years but Tim was incredibly helpful and supportive. He was able to give me good advice and kept me well informed at all times. The videos of my boat were so good I nearly felt like buying the boat myself!! I cannot recommend Tim and Boatshed enough

Review written on behalf of Lloyd Thompson for the recent purchase of the Arvor 215. From the outset after reviewing the footage posted by Tim Kingston on the Boatshed website, the boat was found to be absolutely as depicted in the footage. Then liaised with Tim Kingston whom was extremely informative and very professional. This made the purchase of my first boat seamless and straight forward. Excellent service all around, well done.

I have been impressed and very pleased with the service provided by Tim Kingston of Boatshed. It is the first time I have bought a boat and Tim’s knowledge, advice and good humoured attention to detail has been invaluable in guiding me through the process. I have no hesitation in recommending Boatshed Brighton to intending purchasers.

Were new to the boat world, Tim helped is learn what we needed to know and were now the proud owner of our beautiful boat. Tims trusted support made the process as easy as it could be, thank you Tim

Tim has been very informative and happy to help from viewing to after purches was complete. Very friendly and professional service. Would recommend

With my girlfriend, we bought a wonderful yacht at a very good price. Very nice service during the transaction and after it. Everything went very quickly, in a very nice atmosphere. We have full assistance in getting to know the yacht and in additional repairs.We are both very satisfied and we can recommend it with a clear conscience.Borys & Paulina

Tim provides friendly, clear, impartial advice that has helped me as a relative novice avoid some costly mistakes. He has also introduced me to the local boating community and made the whole boating thing feel a lot less scary!

I have used their services as both a buyer and seller. Tim is very professional and responsive; I highly recommend his company.

Tim from Boatshed organised the purchase of my boat Jemima for me a few years ago and did a great job of finding me the perfect boat to fit my specifications (a cute boat with a cute name). It all went so well that I turned to Tim again when it was time to sell Jemima. Again, the process was made very user-friendly for me; Tim took care of everything in a highly professional manner. I am entirely satisfied with how the sale was managed. Thank you Boatshed.

Great customer service and quick to respond to queries. Highly recommended!

Oh wow! what an experience from the start to the finish. An easy to use website so details uploaded on-line instantly. I appreciated the extra personal help to make my boat presentable, being disabled meant that was a big worry to me. Your photographs were excellent, only surpassed by a truly excellent video; it was not over-sell, but honest good features and details of the boat, just what people want. I so valued the continued feedback about interest shown and the whole sale was so, so, quick, You were excellent at the handover. I cant express my gratitude enough for the personable, professional service at every stage. Thanks Tim, so, so, much. Of course, I would readily recommend Boatshed Brighton without hesitation. I will also take you up on your offer to have that coffeee in the near future.

I would like to thanks Michael and the whole company for cooperation. I bought my second yacht with you and I feel taken care of from beginning to end. Michael sent me a few interesting offers (with many photos & videos) and when we met – he gave me huge amounts of necessary information about all of them. Even after buying a yacht, he didn’t disappear but advised me on buying new parts or improvements. Everything where ‘served’ with great detail, patience, commitment and… enthusiasm. Yeah, enthusiasm is probably Michael’s middle name - after a few seconds of communing with him you get the impression that he loves what he does and... it infects you ;). Thank you again and I look forward to seeing you out on the water!

Tim was responsive in a very timely manner and direct and forthright about the boats on sale.

This is the second boat that Tim Kingston has sold on my behalf. Both were sold at a good price within a few weeks and I have been delighted with service he provided. He really does go that extra mile and the presentation of the boat in terms of photographs and videos is exceptional. I’m a very satisfied customer!

Kept us in touch with developments throughout the selling process. Especially helpful was that Tim and Luke acted as go-betweens between ourselves and the Marina, as we couldnt travel down to Brighton (COVID!). Very knowledgeable about the selling process. Not the cheapest, but the best, most friendly and professional selling experience weve had

Tim and co at Boatshed Brighton was brilliant and made the process of buying a boat easy.Highly recommend Tim and his team.Photo and video on his website provided a comprehensive overview of the boat.And even now, post sale, are providing support and advice about all things sailing...

Tim Kingston did a terrific job of selling my dear, departed, fathers much loved boat. Nothing was ever too much trouble and he was a joy to work with from start to finish. I honestly cant praise him highly enough and if you are looking to buy or sell a boat, or even want to talk to someone incredibly knowledgeable if youre thinking of putting a toe in the boating water - Tim is you man!

To buying a boat trough Boatshed is amazing experience. Me and my partner are firs buyers and we met Michal. What an enthusiasms and knowledge!!! I have never experience better customer service and customer support. Michal is in touch with us constantly, replying all the messages and returning calls straight away. He personally spend with us two days in raw, explaining all the details of the process and boats themselves. He was very honest with us in every aspect and we learn about boats in two days more then in whole life. His knowledge driven by personal enthusiasm is breath taking.We are also in safe hands of Tim who is providing another brilliant service and helping us endlessly.We honestly love this guys!!! Brilliant service. Thank you Michal and Tim!!!

I am delighted that we chose to sell our boat through Boatshed at Brighton. Tim is amazing!. He made the whole experience a good one. He always kept us informed and he really guided us through every detail.I would not hesitate in recommending this company - 100% excellent!

I bought my boat remotely during lockdown from Tim from 400 miles away. Never visited her prior to purchase which is normally a big no no. However, Tims transparency, detailed videos and excellent communications coupled with a significant im-a-genuine-guy-and-not-a-second-hand-car-salesman vibe were sufficient to make me trust Boatshed Brighton. I wasnt disappointed. Tim was indeed a genuine guy working a fair deal for buyer and seller. Bottom line...in a few years when its time for me to upgrade, ill probably be boating down to Brighton from Port Edgar to let Time sell her for me. Cheers!

Responsive and a fantastic wealth of information from Michael. Really helpful

Tim from Brighton Boatshed was an excellent source on knowledge and support when I bought my sail boat. Since buying the boat, I have asked him all sorts of questions about about maintenance and repairs and he has always given me really clear explanations and recommendations. Highly recommended as a boat broker.

Excellent service. Unusual for a boat brokerage to take so much time and attention during a sale.Very pleased

Fantastic team of knowledgeable people, would highly recommend.

A very professional service from start to finish. We wanted to sell our powerboat and switch to sailing. Our Rinker 250 was sold within a month smooth and no problems. Thank you Tim for all your help.

A good photographic description of the boat was on line, and this was helped by a virtual tour of the boat by Tim Kingston. I bought the boat without physically viewing her, and with the help of Tim and the boatyard, arranged transport, degrigging and cranage. Also surveying and insurance were arranged with the help of the brokers.I was pleased with the boat, when it arrived in Scotland. It was better than expected and the selling description had been honest and accurate.The only negative point was that it was sometimes difficult to make telephone contact

MichalWas very knowledgeable and helpful with my questions.He has given me sound advice and hope to soon have a vessel.Really professional and impartial in the advice

Tim from Boatshed was extremely helpful from start to finish. Making the process of buying a boat very easy even during lockdown. Would highly recommend Boatshed.

Popped down to Brighton to start the adventure of purchasing a yacht and met Michael. Just like to say what a great ambassador! His enthusiasm is intoxicating and his excitement is infectious.. Cant wait to view more opportunities using Boatshed, Brighton

Love Tim, boat broker. He has made himself available even before I started looking for a boat. He is very timely with replying to my many emails, especially for someone buying their first boat. Tim is the best!!!

Michal has been extremely helpful, any questions he has answered.He is always full of information, puts your mind immediately at ease and very professional but with a friendly attitude!

I dealt with Tim Kingston during the purchase of my new yacht. He was a pleasure to deal with, quick to reply to queries and was very knowledgeable.

Tim at Boatshed Brighton made the boat buying process easy, simple and enjoyable. He continues to be of help even after the deal was done. Tim remained transparent throughout the buying process. His advice and guidance was very helpful and his knowledge is endless. I would highly recommend Tim. You wont find a better broker on the south coast.

Tim was very helpful throughout the buying process. Explained everything to us novice boaters and is a genuinely very pleasant and amiable man. Thank you Tim!

Bought a boat recently via Boatshed ... great experience, end to end. Knowledgeable broker in their Suffolk area (where my boat was moored) and the admin from head office in Brighton was smooth and efficient. The business model seems to work well for them - light on overheads, with a focus on local knowledge. Id buy or sell via Boatshed again; and happily recommend them to others. No link with the company, just a happy sailor.

Highly recommended - prompt response and more than willing to help! Very patient and happy to answer loads of questions with sound advice!! Thank you

Ive been really happy with the service Ive had from Boatshed Brighton. Tim has been very helpful and knowledgeable. He has worked hard to promote the boat. The website and pictures are excellent and show the boat well. I can thoroughly recommend Boatshed Brighton.

Very helpful and professional approach! Definitely gonna recommend that, youll find exactly what you need. Thank you!

Always a pleasure to deal with Tim at Boatshed Brighton! Knowledgeable, friendly and helpful.

The Boatshed Brighton broker, Tim Kingston, is amazing. Of all the boat brokers Ive come across over the years, he is definitely the most entertaining! In keeping with the Boatshed ethic - definitely the best people to buy from or sell through - Tim tells it like it is. He definitely pulls no punches and yet his comprehensive boat descriptions are also amusing and witty. Id expect nothing less from a former navy man. Ten out of ten, Tim, keep up the good work.

These guys are the best in Sussex and I cant thank Mike enough for all his help, genuine experience and real honest advice, he was absolutely brilliant!! Thank you Boatshed Brighton 🙏🙏🙏

Pleasure to deal with. Tim negotiated a complex chain of events leading up to our sale and was always available to keep us updated (even weekends) on the progress. Would highly recommend to any seller, or buyer.

The Boatshed was and still is a Very professional business, they are very helpful and will answer any questions and very prompt at getting back to you, I would highly recommend them, very good service and down to earth, Tim is easy to talk to, and will help you out to the best of his ability, Thanks Tim

We were so impressed with Tim Kingston of Boatshed Brighton. He understood exactly what we were looking for and was very obliging and responsive throughout the whole process keeping us informed at every step along the way but at no time pressuring us to purchase or conclude matters in a hurry. We bought a 2000 Fairline Targa 43 last August and just love spending time on her either along the coastal waterways or relaxing and entertaining friends.

Just wanted to say I had a great experience dealing with Tim at Boatshed. I asked about a boat that Tim sold 5 years ago and he had all the details at his fingertips. He went the extra mile to help me with the background of the boat despite there being no sale involved. I will definately use Boatsheds services if and when the time comes to sell her. Thanks Tim.

I bought a Folkboat from Tim in September last year. He was very helpful in the sale/purchase, very accommodating when we asked for more information and in fixing a viewing.Would recommend without hesitation!

Excellent advert. Friendly help and advice. Easy viewing. Good communication with seller. Very helpful in making arrangements for transport etc when we were buying the boat from some distance away. I would definitely recommend Tim Kingston and Boatshed Brighton.

Very good service and very nice Broker. Very helpful and even after purchase a good contact to the broker.

Brilliant work, always at hand, great customer service !!!

Tim has been very helpful advising on suitability for my first boat purchase. many thanks

Tim sold my Hallberg Rassy in record time, zero fuss and everything was handled extremely professionally.

Winfrith was sold quite quickly. The new owner will take good care of my lovely old girl. Thanks Tim

Just had to 5star Tim from Boatshed Brighton who sold my boat for me, it was a very traumatic time for me personally so to have Tim deal with everything professionally took the stress out of the whole experience. I would thoroughly recommend Boatshed Brighton if you want your boat sold faster than any other broker. Tim really knows and understands the market well.

Tim and the support from Boatshed were as professional and patient as one could hope for. Ours was a large and complex sale and every issue was dealt with swiftly and with competent expertise. I would thoroughly recommend Boatshed to anyone buying or selling.

Couldnt be happier with our lovely new boat and the amazing help with that we had from Tim Kingston. As newbies to this boating world, Tim has helped and guided us through the whole process, nothing has been too much trouble and hes been very patient with our never ending questions! - Thank you Tim

I tried to sell my yacht privately but after a long period without success I contacted Tim. He found a buyer and helped us both through the process. The buyer seemed happy and invited me for a sail with them six months latter. So top marks to Tim. Tims sale of my boat allowed me to move on to my next location and my next boat. So now I have a nice catamaran sitting in the inner harbour at the Seychelles Yacht Club.

Tim and his team are knowledgeable approachable and provide a good service selling or buying they are straightforward to do business with.

Thankyou tim for helping me get the boat i wanted. one very happy customer.

Brighton Boatshed, provided an excellent, supportive and friendly service for my recent yacht purchase. Tim and the team made the process uncomplicated for me, and I’m new to this. 100% service and reliability. Would highly recommend and definitely use their services again. Many thanks to the team once again and now looking forward to getting out on the water.

Tim and the Boatshed Brighton team have been absolutely amazing in helping us to sell our boat. The service was extremely professional and as Tim is very knowledgeable about the industry his advice was invaluable. We can highly recommend Boatshed Brighton.

My partner and I have been extremely lucky to have Tim and Boatshed Brighton guiding us through the purchase of our first boat. From the informative and helpful videos on the website to sage advice throughout the buying process we could not recommend Boatshed Brighton more highly :)

Tim a heartfelt thank you for your professionalism, responsiveness and awesome communication. I cannot thank you enough.

Absolutely first class service from Tim at Boatshed Brighton. Got everything sorted quickly to make sure I got the boat for my birthday. Tim is the reason why I used and will continue to use Boatshed Brighton.

I can highly recommend Boatshed Brighton for the help and support they have given me in buying my first boat. As a complete boat buying novice I found their professional approach really helpful and they were always at the end of a phone or an email when I had questions. Tim made the process very easy and was there to offer advice when I needed it. Im looking forward to a long and happy relationship with the boat I have bought!

Tim from Boatshed Brighton sold my Fairline Targa 43 for me very efficiently and professionally. He was very good at managing my, and the purchasers expectations, so I wouldnt hesitate to use him again should the need arise.

I have just purchased a Sadler 29 through Boatshed. I found Tim, the Brighton Marina agent for Boatshed extremely pleasant and helpful before, during and after the actual purchase. Great service

Tim was very reassuring and had an understanding view of our yacht and circumstances. Thanks to Boatsheds wide network, targeted sales techniques and realistic approach we achieved a good price in far less time than we had expected. Thank you to Tim and his team.

I recently sold my 58 foot ex-rockstars motor cruiser via Boatshed Brighton. They exceeded my expectations and sold my boat really fast for a really good price. All throughout, they were honest, transparent, efficient and friendly. My broker, was just such a lovely, fun person. I believe my buyer was equally satisfied with the service she got. This is an out and out recommendation to use this company rather than anyone else in Brighton marina! Remember, you have a choice!

Amazing service, Tim was very helpful. I would 100% recommend this for anyone looking to sell a boat.

Marvellous service, Tim pulled out all the stops and went to every effort to help me sell my boat quickly.

These guys made it so easy with great but realistic photos, a wide client base and a supportive sales process that Im thinking about buying again in future, and if so I will be speaking to Boatshed first!

Tim from Boatshed was patient and helpful, he sells boats like hotcakes but to the right people, thats the key, knowing which boats suit which people, and if he does not know something he will find out.

First Class in every way. Boatshed was recommended to me by a friend whose boat Boatshed had sold in a week. I called them and Tim Kingston from Boatsheds Brighton office met me on board my Westerly Solway in Newhaven. He explained everything to me in detail and took dozens of photos - in fact I left him on-board taking even more. Over the following few weeks I was advised almost daily that one prospective buyer or another had looked at my boat on Boatsheds website five or ten times or more. In about a month Tim brought one of these viewers to see the boat and an acceptable offer was made. Brilliant!! And Thank you Tim.

Very helpful

Brilliant!

Everything went very well. Tim was very patient with the payment ..... Very, very patient. We are super happy. I really recommend it.
