Customer Comments
Boatshed Costa Brava is owned & run by Paul Griffiths who has been selling boats in Spain for many years. Paul has a wealth of information at his fingertips and can accurately value almost any boat. He will give you realistic pricing and is as honest as the day is long. He can be trusted to be fair to both buyer & seller and will work hard to make sure that all parties are satisfied. I bought a boat from Paul’s sister company, Boasted Barcelona in 2021 and have since taken his advice on many things, including where to moor and even which restaurants to eat at. If you have a boat to sell you can be sure that Paul will do his best to find you a purchaser and if you are looking to buy a boat, Boatshed Barcelona & Boatshed Costa Brava have an extensive range of vessels to consider.

I bought a boat through Boatshed Barcelona in 2021. It was a lovely boat but it wasn’t a straightforward sale and it probably would have failed if it had not been for Paul Griffiths of Boatshed Barcelona. Firstly, the survey threw up several defects, of which some were relevant and others not. A large retention was required to complete unfunded repairs and liaison with a top shipyard in the region was required. All of this was done with good grace and good humour by Boatshed and I felt comfortable that I was in safe hands at all stages. Whilst Boatshed Barcelona is paid a commission by the vendor, there is plenty of value in their services for the purchaser. For instance drawing up watertight contracts and finding a good surveyor as well as local knowledge for repair yards are all things where professional help is useful. Paul Griffiths likes to build up a relationship with his clients. It is not just sell and forget and I am sure that can be a win-win for everyone.

- DM | Boatshed Barcelona
I really can’t fault this broker, he was very professional and went to every length to answer my questions throughout purchase. I have bought and sold many many boats and I can only say the service and professionalism was second to none.

After a really bad experience with another broker I found Steve Biggs from Boatshed Norfolk to be the best of the best. Goes the extra mile for you and his service is 110 percent. A really good experience. Buying this boat was a stress free experience thanks to Steve. Thank you so much.

Recently sold my boat using Boatshed in Brighton. Tim and Dan were excellent to work with. The marketing was so effective they found a buyer in under a week and guided me through the process until transfer of ownership in just a matter of another couple of weeks. Thanks guys!!

Our broker Paul was always available, he is certainly not a 9 to 5 guy. The viewing and the correspondence were 100%, I have no problems with recommending Paul Watson and therefore Boatshed.
- Peter Hill, June 2023 | Boatshed Yorkshire
So very pleased we used Boatshed again. Thank you to both Sam and Rachel for a very well done and professional job. Good communication and very efficient.
- M Norton, Feb 2023 | Boatshed Port Solent
Samantha and Rachel did a fantastic job of selling my Dutch Barge within an extremely limited time frame, in a brilliantly coordinated sequence with the assistance of other professional organisations they perfectly liaised with. They are automatically my first choice for brokering boat sales, and I recommend any potential buyers/sellers to get in touch. They won't regret it!
- Michael. Jan 2023 | Boatshed Port Solent
Fantastic service from Sam, I had a multiple broker listing but Sam managed to close the sale. Very efficient and stress fee process. I would recommend. Thanks.
