After finding…read moreout he was also a boat broker I jumped at the opportunity to work with Vaughn again because if you can trust a guy with your life you can surely trust that he will look out for your best interest when buying a yacht. After searching and viewing several sailboats from Ventura to San Diego Vaughn helped me close the deal on a boat in Dana Point. He set up all the inspections and sea trial prior to closing the deal and I am happy to announce that I will be sailing the boat to its new home in Long Beach this weekend. Thanks Vaughn!

This was back when they were Boston whaler dealer but now the Grady White. I hate to admit it but it seems like a bit of a better boat. We checked out an 18 foot fishing boat they had in the show room and thank God it was sold otherwise I probably would've put a deposit on it right then. I'm embarrassed to admit I forget the sales guys name but he was super helpful and kind a kept his distance. We are team mask still so he respected our space and answered any questions we had and wasn't pushing anyway. I've come to know love and trust the guys at Schock Boats and Newport but now that we live in Huntington Beach it seems this will be our new spot.

Hi All, I used Pacific Marina Surveyors to survey a sailboat I was interested in purchasing. I had…read moreEvan perform it and I could not have asked for a better surveyor. As a first time boat buyer, I was somewhat unfamiliar with what to look for when having a survey performed. Evan took several hours and walked me through everything clearly while he was surveying the boat. He was thorough, explained what he was looking at and doing as well as giving me heads up on things to watch for in the future. Evan uncovered several things which he included in the report. One item which we uncovered turned out to be a really really big deal and he saved me thousands of dollars. If you're intersted in buying a boat, new or repeat buyer, I cannot recommend these guys enough. 10/10
