Testimonials

Christopher friesen, beth and dave o'connor - bellingham, w.a. | beneteau 36.7 owners.

We recently purchased our Beneteau 36.7 with the assistance of Brad Marchant.  Due to the COVID-19 situation, we were unable to view the boat prior to purchasing it.  

Ralf and Helga Schmidtke | Fleming 65 Owners

Having decided after 30 years of sailing to change to power, the wide choice of brands made the selection task a daunting one. We wanted the most reliable, comfortable, safest, practical and best thought out boat that we could find. Attention to detail and quality was paramount, as was after purchase servicing. She also had to be an attractive boat that we could be proud of. After several months of extensive research, one name easily made it to the top.

Joel Nauss | 75’ President Yacht Owners

Craig and stacey | beneteau oceanis 31.1 owners.

Stacey and I both want to extend our gratitude for your help in acquiring "Margie." She is exactly what we were looking for, and the entire process was as seamless as you had described it would be. She did well on our trip from Anacortes to Kirkland.

You have so much ‘boat knowledge’ and so much patience that it has made getting to know my new boat so much easier for me. Your after sales service is amazing and I thank you.

Thank you, Larry, for your most competent help navigating us through the purchase of our vessel and the complicated ‘thereafter’. I still love the boat and my family and myself very much look forward to years of exploring and memory making. Thanks again!

This spring is the first time I have used your services at Bayview, as I have been pretty loyal to Delta.  When Delta said they were too busy this spring, Jay recommended I call you guys.

You too of course are busy, but I want you to know how happy I am that I have gone to Bayview.  Patricia has been absolutely great to deal with, and both Derek and Flynn delivered terrific work despite my supervising over their shoulders…so I am a very happy customer.  You have some great folks working there.  I’ll be back!

I hope this letter will adequately convey my sincere thanks and appreciation to you for your absolutely outstanding effort, over the years, in the purchasing of two boats and the sale of another.

Both my wife and myself were complete boating novices prior to meeting you.  We “didn’t know what we didn’t know.”  Your honesty and integrity were immediately apparent to us.  You took a considerable amount of time “educating us”, spending less time on sales, focusing much more on our needs.

During the purchase of our boats, you helped us arrange all of the pre and post sale services, i.e. boat survey, engine survey, etc.  Over the years, you have continued to support us, answered my many dumb questions and helped me with my seamanship.  Your knowledge about virtually every type of boat is truly amazing.

Larry, the one word that truly describes you is a “true professional” in every respect.  I would strongly recommend you to anyone seeking to purchase or sell a boat.

You are someone I am proud to call a friend.

Read More about Dave

Being on or near the water has been a constant in my life, even when landlocked for many years in Alberta. I grew up in a boating family, helping my dad maintain and restore boats playing deck hand and fishing guide in Northern BC waters. These days, my family and I spend as much time as we can on or around the water, particularly making forays across the Georgia Straight to Valdes Island where we are restoring an “off the grid” cabin.

Much of my professional career had been in Health Care Marketing and Business Development, and my transition to yacht sales and management has allowed me to marry my avocation with my vocation. I truly love being able to help clients with every stage of their boating experience and in finding the right boat to meet their needs. When the time comes to move on from your current boat, I will ensure that your boat is presented in the most effective and appropriate manner in our current cluttered market.

I look forward to working with you on your boating dream!

Max comes to Yacht Sales West from many years of experience as a skilled instructor, leader and project manager. With 49,000 nm of boating on both coasts of North America, the Caribbean, the Pacific, and Europe, he is a Yachtmaster Offshore Instructor and commercially endorsed RYA Yachtmaster Ocean/Master of Yachts 200GT. When he is not teaching sailing, he can also be found on the water at the helm of an RCMSAR Fast Rescue Craft or enjoying the BC coast with his family in their Stevens 47 sailboat.

Prior to boating full-time, Max had a successful career in the Canadian Armed Forces as an Aerospace Engineer, culminating as a Lieutenant Colonel commanding an RCAF squadron. After a rewarding 23 years in squadrons, ships and headquarters, Max and his wife decided they needed a new adventure that they could share with their children. He and Elizabeth soon embarked on a seven-year, 36,000 nm voyage around the Pacific, taking their family of four, and then five, through Mexico, the South Pacific, and Micronesia before returning to Victoria via the Aleutian Islands and the Alaskan coast. Their travels were documented in the media in forms as diverse as CBC, Global TV, Latitude 38 and Pacific Yachting.

He has a BEng in Mechanical Engineering, an MSc in Flight Dynamics, a Masters of Defence Studies and was certified as a Professional Engineer. When not out boating, he enjoys kiteboarding and camping with his family. They are members of the Ocean Cruising Club, the Bluewater Cruising Association and the Canadian Forces Sailing Association.

Boating has been a part of my life for a very long time. I crossed the Atlantic in 1967 and have been hooked ever since. My first “real” boat experience started in an 8′ row boat. In 1979 I was living aboard my own boat and working in the local boat building industry on everything from Reliance 37’s, Cooper 416’s and Maple Leaf 56’s to a 65’ Huntingford design.

I started racing in 1981 and haven’t stopped since. Over the years, I’ve won many manjor races in BC. In 1988 I took my passion of boating and my skills of building and refitting and began my career in yacht sales. Over the past years, I’ve been a fleet captain, VARC rep and a BCYBA Director. Having owned 14 boats personally, I am very familiar with the process of buying and selling.

If you are looking for someone to either help you find the right boat or sell your current boat I offer a lot of knowledge and a positive attitude you can depend on now and in the future. I still have clients from 1988 when I first got into this business. My job is to take the stress from you so you can make your decisions based on knowledge.

My introduction to sailing was nothing short of fantastic. I started sailing at the age of 8 in South Africa when my school principal included sailing as an official school sport. Right through school and college, sailing and rugby was my life. Our Christmas family holidays always involved traveling around the country as I raced in various Provincial and National regattas, collecting hardware along the way. If I was not on my laser, I was offshore racing in 30ft swells along the African coastline generally on foredeck duty.

Moving to Vancouver in 1994 only fueled my love for sailing as it was the first time I actually went cruising. I loved it. I’ve enjoyed the last twenty years teaching, racing and cruising in the beautiful waters of British Columbia with my wife and three kids.

After moving to Vancouver, I became a certified ISPA sailing instructor. I found myself helping past and present students, friends and even strangers choose the boat of their dreams. It became pretty obvious that this was my calling and in 2011 I sold my retail business and became a yacht broker as a profession.

I take great pride in ensuring a seamless experience for my clients throughout the purchasing or selling cycle. My objective is for you to enjoy boating and not to worry about the transaction: leave that to me.

My story with boats started in 2008 when I got a job as a service technician on sailboats because I wanted to learn how to sail. Little did I know that I would grow to become service manager and commissioned 100s of brand new and used sailboats. I assume my role as a support for the sales team, and technical consultant for our customers.

Having long reaching arms in the local marine industry, and over 12 years of experience, I can help you with any technical question you may have.

When I am not working, you will find me somewhere in the mountains, on a bike, rope or on skis, foraging for wild mushrooms or brewing beer at home!
