Love the crew at Dick Simon Yachts! Graeme was so helpful and knowledgable! Nice to see someone still takes personal interest !

We listed our boat with Jeff West employed by Dick Simon Yachts 6months ago. MR. West has not brought one offer so far. When he was asked to lower the price in order to get the boat sold, he wanted to raise the price. The offer expired a couple of weeks ago, without Mr. West even contacting us to let us know. My assistant, called today to let Mr. West know that we would not be re-listing with him; Mr. West responded "GOOD, NOW I CAN GET THIS F****** THING OUT OF MY FACE." If this is the way that Mr. West likes to talk to women, and feels that he can address them that way, I will never do business with him or ever recommend people like him. read more

Awful experience. We set an appointment to see the vessel we wanted, met with Mark in Dana Point and we also got to meet the owner of the boat. We agreed upon a price a few days later, and the contract was getting written up. Wife, Son and I were very excited and we secured a spot and paid a deposit plus first month for the HOA boat storage spot where we live while our slip in Dana Point Harbor comes up. The next day, Mark tells me, "sorry, we've accepted a higher offer, the boat is no longer yours". WHAT? How unprofessional & greedy can you possible be? When we saw the boat I offered to put a deposit down to hold it, these guys said not to worry that if someone else came along in the next few days that they'd let us know. We've made a vow to let everyone in Dana Point know to stay away from Mark and his greedy tactics...he should be ashamed of himself. read more

What a great trip! We showed up 30 minutes early and glad we did, managed a nice spot on the boat and had great views of whales and dolphins during our 2 hour ride. Crew was OK, they did their job as and really didn't need them much during the trip. The captain kept us aware of where the whales were about to surface. That helped everyone enjoy the amazing sightings. The boat had a nice selection of beer and beverages and food to order if you felt compelled to eat or drink. They had restrooms that were more than adequate for the 2 hour trip. 4 stars and I am going back with those visitors from out of state. They will love the experience. read more

Excellent, professional client service from Mark Rentziperis at Dick Simon Yachts. My dad had been looking online for a while. After going to check out a Sea Ray with sis and friend, dad decided it was the one. Mark was so kind and patient with all of us, walking us through the buying process. We all worked hard to help dad to achieve his dream of having another Sea Ray after giving his up after a stroke 15 years ago. Mark was was extremely knowledgeable about the boat, answered our numerous calls and texts, and went over and beyond to help us help dad. Mark helped with the whole process - from the mechanical inspection, survey, haul out, etc. He only chooses the best service providers to refer us to. Thanks again, Mark, and Dick Simon Yachts, for making Dad's, and our family's dreams come true! read more

It was a pleasant surprise for us when Dick Simon showed us the boat we were interested in on a Saturday afternoon. Sure, it was a lot smaller than the big deals he usually is involved in. But he took his time with us like we were going to spend a million dollars. Not only did he have a lot of priceless free advice for us, he also had plenty of colorful stories from a sporting life. What a guy! Thank you Dick. read more

Dick and Dianne are fantastic, the rest of the team is also super great. I would recommend them to anyone who will listen to me!

I recently purchased a live aboard boat through Dick Simon yachts, and I just wanted to take a second to tell everyone how fantastic my experience has been! I literally made a yelp profile just to write this one review. What seemed like an ardous and stressful endeavor to find a place to live, quickly turned into an exciting adventure to find a dream when I ran into Jeff at Dick Simon Yachts. Over the course of three weeks he spared no expense or effort trying to find me exactly what I was looking for! He worked around the clock and wasn't satisfied with anything except perfect. But the service didn't stop there! He was with me every step of the way giving advice and guidance as I got the boat documented, and during her maiden voyage from Long Beach to San Diego. He still calls me regularly to check up and see how things are going. Honestly, to buy a boat with anyone except Jeff would be a mistake! read more

My wife and I just closed on a beautiful boat in San Diego and we cannot express enough appreciation to our broker, Mark Rentziperis who was so patient and guided us through the entire process which was absolutely seamless. Mark genuinely cares about us and steered us in a most efficient way to choose the right boat. Marks long time knowledge and connections were top notch! he contacted the best surveyors and people to help us register our boat. we also gained he and his wife as friends! Thank you so much Mark for guiding us on this journey read more

What an amazing experience! Everyone there is so helpful, all the staff is amazing. It was my first boat purchase so they were very patient with me and helped pick my first boat with no pressure. They never got annoyed for coming 3 different times to look at the boat lol. Also met Dick, the owner, he's a wonderful guy also very friendly and was always looking out for my best interest. Definitely recommend this place to anyone look to buy a boat. You don't just buy a boat there you join a family! read more

Dick is amazing and makes you feel comfortable while he pays attention to every detail during the entire process. My husband and I are buying a sailboat with him currently.

Listed my 61ft 1983 Hatteras CPMY with Dick Simon Yachts (Mark Biljanic). What a great guy and Yacht Broker. We closed escrow today, so I guess it's my second happiest day in my life. I think I'm a little sad, but won't miss chasing those flakey marine vendors (mechanic's, electricians, plumbers, and divers to mention a few) Mark is up front and honest, listen to his advice. Listed my boat previously with Naples Yacht Sales, Heritage Yacht Sales and Stan Miller. Don't waste your time with any of those brokerages. I highly recommend Mark Biljanic of Dick Simon Yachts. read more

This gentleman made us feel so welcome and genuinely cared about what we were looking for in a boat. We are definitely going to seek his advice in the future! read more

There's guys are great. Having owned or been around boats my whole life, I had never been through the process of buying a boat through a broker. I had a boat in my sites (Pursuit 3000), but hadn't made the decision to commit to buying one yet. One day I was in DP marina and saw the exact boat that I had in mind up for sale, so I walked into their office with no appointment and Mac McCarty helped me. When I finally mustered up the guts to make an offer, he informed me that the boat had already sold. However, he was heading to Florida to look at one just like it, but wit lower hours. The boat checked out, I made the offer and got the boat. Mac took care of everything. He set up the survey/sea trial, got me in touch with he boat yards on both ends, set me up I with a shipping company and helped me get a slip sublease in DP. As a former boat builder, Mac is incredibly knowledgeable about boats and has helped me even post-transaction. Anyone looking to buy/sell a boat, Mac is your guy. read more

Wish I could give but one star! dick Simon Yachts will lie, cheat, steal, deceive, what ever it takes to make a sale! My 300000 dollar yacht needed 80000 in repairs and the yard is still finding things the brokers advised the seller to cover up. With in minutes of signing the contract, they stated "you signed the contract" so it's all your problem! They are the worst kind of whores, anything for a commission, no support after the sale, no remorse, nothing. If your selling a piece of crap, Dick Simon Yachts is the place to go! If your considering buying a yacth, LOOK OUT! read more
