TestimonialsTom and Karen Fischer St. Louis, MO Dear Dennis, I wanted to drop you a line and let you know how much we appreciate everything you and your team did to sell our boat. With us living in Omaha and our boat being at the Lake of the Ozarks, it was very important to us that we worked with a broker who was not only knowledgeable, but motivated and available to us by phone if needed. We found all of these qualities in you and your team. We can't express enough how easy you made this for us. Your service and professionalism is invaluable. You came highly recommended to us and we plan to carry on the message. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! We have recently moved to a lake-front property, outside Omaha. When we go to look for a boat, you can count on hearing from us. Thank you, Dennis. Best regards, Toby and Lisa Wilsey From a Thank you card from Don and June Morgan, Of Scottsdale, AZ, purchasers of a 1989 Sea Ray 390 Express. We want to let you know how we feel about your broker, Dennis Barnes. It has been our pleasure to have been treated over and above what would be expected of a broker. All the kindness, extra help with phone calls, boat cleaning and even taking care of the holding tank ! What a treasure you have ! I am in sales and I know that little extra makes all the difference and Dennis is living proof that the little things do mean a lot. We will speak of you all whenever we can and send business because we know you treat people right. Again our warmest thanks for helping us out of towners when you went above and beyond your job. When it comes time for the next big boat step- Dennis will be first on our list ! Sincerely, June and Don Morgan Scottsdale, AZ To; Jay Clark This letter is to thank you for the great work you have done for us over the past year and a half. Through your market insight and diligent efforts, you’ve arranged the successful sale of two of our boats, while simultaneously locating our “dream boat”. Not only did you locate exactly what we wanted, you were able to negotiate a great price, while making sure our current boat sold at a substantial profit. You were professional, thorough, and considerate during the entire process, and have clearly earned our continued loyalty. Thank you for your hard work. My brothers and I look forward to seeing you at the lake. Sincerely, Greg Nobrega; Owner of a 1989, 42ft. Carver Aft Damian and Carole Porcari purchased a 1996 Silverton 372 Motoryacht Why would a Michigan family buy a boat sight unseen from a Missouri yacht broker? Lots of people asked me that question when I bought my boat in 1999. But Dennis Barnes made the experience simple and fun. Dennis emailed me dozens of digital photographs. He helped me find a great surveyor that faxed a detailed marine inspection of my almost new Silverton 372. He arranged a February sea trial and showed me how to run my new boat. Dennis even arranged for a great vacation get away on the boat and found a transport company that shipped my boat to Michigan. My only regret is that I could not spend more time in Missouri with my boat. All in all a great experience. Damian Porcari An email reply to a follow up by Dennis: Yes, I did receive the information and thank you for it. Also, I would like to congratulate you on your excellent business and sales skills. You were the only person to respond to my inquiries and you provided information relevant to my request. Please be assured I have saved your email and should our interest to purchase a new boat in the spring continue, you will be the first person I contact. Thank you for your courtesy and professionalism. Gary Shull An email from Brian Thomas who purchased a boat from another broker: Hello Dennis, How have you been, hope you had a great summer. I finally bought a boat, a 1990 31 ft Scarab Excel. It is really pristine. Dennis, sorry we couldn not strike a deal on the Formula, it was beautiful. The broker I dealt with on my boat did not come close to your professionalism or integrity. Take care, Brian Dear Jay, Kelly and I cannot thank you enough for helping make the summer of 2000 one of the most fun seasons we have had. Your expertise in yachts gave us the confidence that our first yacht, a 1999 40ft. Sea Ray Sundancer, was the right choice for us. Even though this is my fourth boat, there is a big difference in runabouts and yachts. Your knowledge and experience, as a captain, made every aspect of selecting, purchasing, and operating a yacht a pleasure. Your dedication to customer satisfaction is unmatched by any sales person I have encountered. I believe the one thing that sets you apart from most is your love for what you do. Sincerely, John and Kelly Whicker, Chevys Fresh Mex To Whom It May Concern, This letter just confirms that I wish the new company, which is called, Ozark Yacht Brokers, Inc., good luck. I have known Captain Jay Clark for many years, going back to when he was with the Lodge of Four Seasons Marina from 1989 to 1997. I have known Dennis Barnes for the last three years or so. I feel that both of these gentlemen are extremely honest people and I consider that a very important attribute when someone is buying a boat. I have also been very impressed with how thorough they are in details of any boat that they are selling. With the kind of experience that these gentlemen and the knowledge that they have concerning boats, I am sure that they will do well. Best personal regards, Carl F. Bolz Marine Surveyor CJB, Inc., Bolz and Bolz A note from Tim Fetter who purchased his first boat from Dennis, a 1995 Carver 33 Mariner. I wanted to drop you a note and let you know how easy you made the whole experience of buying a boat. Thanks to your ability to find the perfect boat as well as your service after the sale, I am convinced we will do business once again. After visiting the boat show this year, I have already got two foot fever and I am sure I will be contacting you soon. Thanks and good luck. Tim Fetter OEM Sales Manager OnStream, Inc. A note from Kevin Entwistle of St. Louis, MO who purchased a 1996 Cobalt 232 from Dennis and then listed his 1995 Chaparral 1930 with Dennis who sold it in 20 days. Dennis, Thanks for the update! I too must pass along thanks to you. Our buying and selling experience with you was a pleasure. No pressure, no hassle. By far, the easiest way to purchase and sell a boat. When we get hit with the four foot itis bug again, I will be calling you. Kevin
