I am extremely impressed by Scott Wallingford! He went above and beyond to get our Corsair Pulse 600 ready for pickup today. Being a slightly used sailboat and trailer it had some small issues, and Scott happily took care of all of them on the spot to make sure it was in perfect condition for me.Im an experienced sailer, but this is my first Corsair. Scott spent most of a day showing me how to setup, launch, sail, and then pack this awesome little boat back up on the trailer. His time spent educating us was a huge value add from Wright Yachts!Overall I highly recommend purchasing a boat from Wright Yachts, they will take care of you!

Scott helped us sell our Hunter 350 sailboat. He was simply an excellent broker. We live near Seattle. In addition to selling our boat, we also were purchasing another boat in Vancouver. He facilitated both transactions seamlessly. He personally took very nice photos of our boat and advertised it extensively on all the important websites. Because our own boat sold quickly, we were able to purchase the second boat using our boat as a trade in saving us a good deal of money on taxes. On one occasion Scott drove all the way to Vancouver to meet me and go over the Canadian boat we planned on purchasing. He was all over the boat looking it over with his knowledgeable eyes suggesting things that needed to be corrected prior to purchase. He also helped with the sea trial, and because he is a very accomplished sailor himself, he pointed out important aspects of the used boat we were about to purchase. All in all, Scott is a hardworking and honest broker with whom it was a pleasure to do business with. I highly recommend him.

Rob went the extra mile with me in my search for a sailboat. He was thoroughly knowledgeable and always willing to crawl through yet another boat and help to evaluate it. I appreciate his honesty, candor and positive energy which were always present. We looked at a lot of boats together both in person and virtually. Rob has integrity. He made the survey process and purchase process smooth and stress free. He negotiated effectively on my behalf. I am more than satisfied with Robs service, with the boat that I bought and with the price that I paid. Scott, who works with Rob, was able to find and negotiate a boat transport deal that was less than half of the price that I had been quoted. And when damage was done during transport to the forward hatch, Scott negotiated compensation from the boatyard that had packed up the boat for transport. I am extremely satisfied.

My wife and I met Rob when we looked at a sailboat he had listed at Lake Washington. That boat was not the one for us and we took a pause on our search for about six months. Rob kept in touch with us but was never pushy. When he found the perfect boat for us (a Beneteau 47), we got a chance to see him kick into high gear. He proved to be an excellent negotiator and a wealth of technical knowledge. When we completed our purchase he helped us find a great marina, sail our boat to it and offered multiple follow-up skill-building opportunities. Rob is truly a professional yacht broker and a heck of a nice guy. We feel lucky to have met him and can recommend him without reservation.

Scott sold me a 1985 Pearson 303 sailboat. He is very knowledgeable and very willing to share what he knows. I wanted a survey, which Scott helped facilitate, he came along on the sea trial, and arranged for the haul out. Lastly, he helped me skipper the boat from Shilshole to my moorage on lake Washington. I could not have been happier with his skills and service.

Working with Scott to buy my Cascade 36 was a fantastic experience. It was/is my first boat, and despite my lack of knowledge and experience Scott was always happy to help and answered/followed up on all of my questions.He was a huge help in getting everything setup and rolling forward, as much of my looking at the boat was remote, but working with him made the whole process much easier, and a great single point of contact for all my questions. He helped line up a surveyor that I wanted, and made all the arrangements for the haul out and sea trials, and made it all happen pretty last minute.Boat questions aside, Scott and Wright Yachts were also a huge help with their local knowledge of how the whole marina setup worked, so it was very helpful to have that as a backbone to help get all the sublease etc things lined up and in place for my moorage there.Would absolutely recommend that anyone in the area looking to buy or sell a boat to give them a call!

Rob has been absolutely spectacular helping my wife and I purchase our new Hunter 410! He managed to coordinate everything for us while were on the east coast and made the entire process a smooth sail. He helped us handle every step along the way with lots of patience as were first time buyers. We cant thank him enough for making this a great experience, and we certainly look forward to having him on board to celebrate!

Finding Rob Wright at Wright Yachts was the best person to sell our boat. We had previously listed the boat with a broker closer to the location of the boat for over a year with very few showings and no offers.When I first met Rob and talked to him about listing my boat I knew he would be the one to sell it. In October 2016 I listed my sailboat at Wright Yachts. Within 6 months he had it sold. He showed the boat several times,traveling over 60 miles to meet the clients. He always kept us informed of who was looking at it and also of their interest after seeing it. He gave us several suggestions on how to have the boat ready to have a good presentation too. He used the internet for advertising along with local boating magazines. Not only did he find the buyer but he found the right buyer for the sailboat. He was so great to work with from the beginning with the offer, through the survey, and all the way to closing. We would definitely list our boat with him again.

Rob really worked for us and found us the PERFECT SAILBOAT. I cant say enough great things about Rob, he really know his way around a boat and is very knowledgeable and helpful. He wants to make sure you get the boat that is Wright ( no pun intended) for you. If we ever upgrade again I know who we will be calling. He is also selling our other boat and he had a buyer within like 2 days, Thats Service and Commitment.Thanks Rob its been an absolute Pleasure working with you,Larry and Susan Layman

We walked by Wright Yachts one Saturday afternoon, and caught Robs son in the window building legos. I like legos, and we were in the market to sell our boat. So we popped in for a visit. We immediately liked Rob, and he was immediately interested in us. Rob was happy to list our 32 sailboat and named the extensive list of sites he would cross-link the listing. By the following afternoon, he had checked out our boat and prepared the listing, upon our agreement. He was very thorough in coming up with a fair price, and enlisted the advise of other boat brokers to ensure we would sell our boat in a reasonable time frame. Well! Within a week we had a written offer! Rob knows boats! He could not be an easier person to work with, and we look forward to buying our next boat through him. If you are looking for someone to sell your boat, or looking for someone to help you wade through the waters of finding your next boat, contact Rob!

I was trying to sell my sailboat on Craigslist when Rob from Wright Yacht sales contacted me. I was hesitant at first because I wasn’t interested in paying brokerage fees and I thought my boat was getting the exposure it needed to sell from Craigslist and other websites I had paid for. But after showing the boat countless times over a few months, I finally decided to talk to Rob to find out if his service would be worth the cost.Initially upon meeting him at the boat, he was knowledgeable, honest, and easy to communicate with about what I was after. He was excited about my boat and the opportunity to list it, and his 60 day term is better than what I had heard from other established brokers. He gave me a few pointers that would make the boat more appealing to buyers, and we signed the paperwork.I had been listing the boat myself for 3-4 months before I listed with Rob. He had the boat for a week before getting multiple offers and ultimately a closer. And I had to do nothing.Rob was great during the negotiations, surveying, sea trials, and closing processes. I was a first time seller and would have been lost amidst the paperwork and communication, but Rob was professional and knowledgable about everything. He kept the communication between the buyer and I honest and open and I think that both of us walked away from the deal happy.I consider Rob a friend of mine now and recommend Wright Yacht Sales to anyone looking to sell their boat.
