Testimonials
"After owning and sailing many boats over several decades it was a distinct pleasure to have retained Todd Taylor as broker/agent for the sale of my last boat, a Pearson 424. Throughout our association I found Mr Taylor to exhibit considerable knowledge about boats at large and the sale of many different types of boats. He was faultless in his integrity, honesty, trustworthiness, and, above all, candor. Because of his good judgement, he completed the sale of my boat on satisfactory terms to both the seller and the buyer."
s/s Captain C. C. Brock, USN (Ret)
"Working with Todd in the purchase of our Passport 470 was a unique experience. Unique because he returned phone calls, followed up on our requests, provided advice (based on his significant knowledge of boats – both sail and power), he was an advocate on our behalf with the manufacturer, and he proactively stayed in touch with us throughout the entire process. I recommend Todd both for these attributes and because it was a pleasure to deal with him!"
Mark & Kathy Hounshell
I'm sure Todd Taylor will be the best boat broker for you as he was for us. Besides being friendly and personable, Todd used his lifelong boating knowledge and experience to help us in the purchase of our boat. His personal integrity was always evident as he worked closely with us giving his honest opinion and always keeping us informed of progress whether buying or selling a boat. What impressed us most was about Todd was his commitment to go above and beyond the standard to meet our needs. While we lived in Texas and he was a broker in Maryland, he found our Shannon '43 by contacting Shannon boat owners, and then going to Connecticut, video taping the boat and working hand in hand with us until the boat was ours. Todd is always our resource in boating and we highly recommend him.

"We highly recommend Todd Taylor to anyone wanting to buy or sell a boat. Todd took the time and effort to help us find just the right boat when we purchased our Sabre 34. Again when we wanted a 2nd boat for Florida, he took care of every detail when we purchased a Sabre 28 in Maryland and shipped it to Florida. Todd's insight and professionalism made both of our purchases very enjoyable experiences! Now that we are considering a larger boat, Todd is again very patiently working with us to find the right boat. He has taken the time to show us a wide variety of boats. He keeps in touch and sends us information about boats as they come on the market, without being pushy. We truly value his in-depth knowledge and insight."
Dennis & Kathy Fry, Sabre 34, "SCIMITAR"
"Bonnie and I recently bought a boat through Todd Taylor, our broker. We were always impressed by his knowledge of boats and ability to sort through the market for one that met our criteria. His professionalism and advice really helped up get the boat we wanted."
Hank and Bonnie, 47’ Custom Alum. Rhodes Cutter, “NARDEN”
How nice it was to hear from you this morning and to learn of your venture into the world of business ownership. May I wish you every success. Anyone who chooses to use your services, whether buying or selling, will be pleased with your thorough and professional approach. I still recall how I was able to rely on your help in purchasing Whisper. You made everything go smoothly even though I lived seven hours away. I will never forget your picking me up at the airport after I had delivered the boat home and returned to pick up my car. That was service above and beyond expectations.
Best of luck in your new venture. You can be certain we will pursue your services should we ever want to list Whisper for sale.
Doug & Jane Oakley, Shannon 38
"After considerable debate between my wife and myself we decided to sell our Bristol32. Todd Taylor listed our boat and provided exemplary service from the listing through buying our next boat. He gave us pointers on how to prepare the boat for sale, marketed the boat aggressively and worked with us throughout the process. He was always available and treated us as though we were his only customers. After selling our Bristol 32, Todd provided extraordinary service to us in helping us to find our next boat. He worked with us to identify how we would use the boat and recommended boats that would meet our needs. He applied his considerable expertise to guide us toward the perfect boat for us. We settled on an Island Packet 35. Todd was not deterred when the boat we wanted immediately available. He sent post cards to all Island Packet Owners on the East Coast and eventually identified a boat that was soon to come on the market. We have been extremely happy with the boat and with the service provided by Todd."
Al & Helen Powell, Island Packet 35
"Our relationship with Todd Taylor started with a phone call. Todd had a yacht. Not just any yacht that might just be of interest, but a yacht that we needed to see and consider in the search for that perfect fit. Todd never called unless he had a boat that he knew would be worth our time and consideration. His insight into our personal needs and dreams for the future along with his knowledge of the industry and forthrightness made every call from Todd something to look forward to with anticipation. Eight months later, we purchased the yacht that we knew without hesitation would be able to fulfill our dreams and aspirations. Thanks Todd!"
Gary and Bunny Marolt, PASSPORT 40
"We are in the boat of our dreams because of Todd. His knowledge of different boats and their pros and cons, and appreciation for our particular needs and sailing goals, was invaluable to us. Our Passport 40, WHISPER, is everything he said she would be, and more. After the sale, he was always available and responsive when questions arose, and we now count him among our friends. He also helped us price our prior boat fairly and sold it for us within a month. We could not have asked for anything more from a broker."
Larry Rovin & Carolyn Rugg, PASSPORT 40
We want to thank you for your very professional service over the past three years. When we started looking for a boat, we were a very demanding buyer having owned boats over 30 years and planning on more years of live aboard cruising.
We spent over a year with you before we made a decision on a new boat. We were kept informed of every boat that came new to the market. You gave us fair opinions on the boats. We even traveled together to San Francisco to look at what we all thought was the perfect boat. In the end there was no boat to meet our expectations on the brokerage market and we opted for a new Passport 43. During the construction, we appreciated you staying on top of every detail and decision that had to be made. After cruising for two years, the boat has been a perfect cruising machine.
Dominique was really impressed with your attention to her and her wants in a retirement boat. It's so easy to get caught up in the technical details and forget about the liveability of your "Home". You always looked after her wishes.
Again, we want to thank you very much for your help in bringing our dream to reality.
Continued Good Luck,
Ron Schuck & Dominique Lablanche
