The Marketplace That Works for the Owner
Boats, docks and slips — FSBO-first, brokers always labeled, and every listing marketed with its own video.
Boats, docks and slips — FSBO-first, brokers always labeled, and every listing marketed with its own video.
YachtBazar started with one number: a broker's cut on a $500,000 boat is roughly $50,000 — so we set out to make for sale by owner the easiest way to buy and sell a boat.
We still champion FSBO: owners list free, keep every dollar, and you talk straight to the person who sailed, fixed and priced the boat — we never touch the transaction or take a commission. Brokers are welcome too, and every broker listing is clearly badged Broker so you always know who you're dealing with and can stick to FSBO whenever you prefer.
List your boat and we turn it into a cinematic video tour — your photos, your price, original music composed by our own engine — and publish it to YouTube, X, Instagram and Threads. Automatic, free, and yours to keep. Your boat reaches buyers where they actually scroll, and you never lift a finger.
Free coastal charts with depths, tides, live currents, wrecks and reefs — national coverage with every data source named. Plan the trip to see the boat, or the first trip on it.
Open the Nav Map →Thousands of US marinas with researched addresses, phones, slips, fuel and amenities — each record naming where its facts came from. Run a marina? Claim and manage your page free.
Browse Marinas →The dock market has middlemen too — booking platforms take 5–15% of every reservation. Here, owners list slips, moorings and docks for sale or rent free, and renters deal direct.
See Docks & Slips →Our own render engine builds vertical video tours with original, royalty-free music — nothing licensed, nothing you'd see anywhere else. Browse every tour in the gallery.
Video Gallery →Some boats are listed by their owners, some by brokers — and every listing is clearly badged FSBO or Broker, so you always know who's on the other end and can deal with them directly. No surprises, no hidden middlemen.
One search covers owner and broker listings across major boating markets nationwide: boats owners post here directly, plus by-owner listings we gather from public sources including Facebook Marketplace and Craigslist. The catalog is refreshed as new listings come in.
Listings with a "Direct contact" badge have the owner's phone or email right on the page — one tap to call. Every listing also has a public Questions & Answers thread where owners reply with a verified badge, so the answers help the next buyer too.
The Community is where boaters trade real knowledge — buying checklists, slip prices, repair help, gear debates. Click any member's name to see their active listings. Free account, everyone's welcome.
Save a search and get an email the moment a matching boat is listed. Heart boats to keep them on your Saved page. Sellers get a dashboard with live view, save and contact counts — feedback Craigslist never gives you.
Every listing has flag buttons — scam, broker-in-disguise, already sold. Flagged listings are reviewed and repeat offenders are banned. We don't verify sellers (nobody's in the middle — that's the point), so always view the boat in person, survey anything significant, and never wire money. Our full safety guide.
If you own it, post it free with photos, your price and your contact info — buyers reach you directly and you keep every dollar. Brokers and dealers are welcome to list too — free, always badged Broker or Dealer, and never promoted above owner listings.
Questions, feedback, press — or a listing takedown request if you're an owner who wants a listing removed (we act on those promptly).
Every boat in one search — FSBO and broker, each clearly labeled. Owners always list free, and every listing gets its video.
