Fall Sales Plan/Winter Storage Rebate 2009

If you are considering selling your boat, the McMichael Brokerage Display will maximize your exposure and minimize your carrying costs. We offer a Winter Storage Rebate that will refund up to 100% of your storage costs if your boat sells through McMichael.

 

Being an industry leader with ample inventory on-site makes us the first stop for many buyers in the Northeast, and every potential buyer that comes to our yard will see your boat. This is a huge advantage over having your boat off-site. Our office is staffed 6 days a week (and by appointment Sundays) by 7 full-time professional brokers working as a team to make sure your boat can be shown at a moment’s notice.

 

Our Sales Administration team has over 25 years of experience – an important factor in making sure your interests as a seller are protected. All McMichael Central Listings are aggressively marketed through the internet, WindCheck magazine and, most importantly, our brokers’ personal databases of thousands of boaters across the country. All listings are available for co-brokerage and other brokerage firms know that a McMichael listing means a quality boat and a smooth transaction. Our brokers are some of the most respected in the business.

 

Details of the Winter Storage Rebate are below. Don’t let your boat languish unused for the rest of the season – if you are ready to sell, give us a call today!

 

Arrival Date: After September 6, 2009

Cash flow advantages:

A $400 deposit and signed Winter Storage Contract are required to reserve your space. The deposit covers the cost of hauling, power washing, blocking and, if sold, launching the boat prior to November 1. McMichael mechanics will winterize all engines in the water before hauling to insure they run without obvious problems. Normal winterization charges apply and are due within 30 days of completion.

Winter Storage Rebate rates:

Gross Commission $ 4,000 - $ 7,999: 20%

Gross Commission $ 8,000 - $11,999: 40%

Gross Commission $12,000 - $15,999: 60%

Gross Commission $16,000 - $20,000: 80%

Gross Commission Over $20,000: 100%

 

The balance of winter storage is due at the closing on the boat or on May 1, whichever comes first. All other invoices are due 30 days after hauling (decommissioning, covering, etc.). The winter storage season (November 1 to April 30).

If your boat is not sold by April 30, 2010 and you have paid the winter storage and any other bills due at that time, summer storage will start May 1. Normally invoiced at 50% of the winter rate, it will be at NO CHARGE and marketing your boat will continue. Price, cleanliness and condition affect marketability and are your responsibility. We reserve the right to ask that you remove your boat from our yard after the storage season if the boat is not maintained and priced appropriately.
