ABOUT US

“I've just looked at the Golden Goose site and my boat has had 12734 hits and I heard from three, each a complete waste of time. Do you think you could do better?” We believe so.

“Thanks for sorting out the oudrive- the vibration has gone, we have increased speed and it’s the first time we’ve been up on the plane for three years.” Ok but is she still for sale?

“How is it that I have been trying to sell The Witch for two years and you guys have got a result in two months?” Well we were a bit lucky.

Michael and Penny Wightman established Float My Boat in Capestang following years of cruising in both sail and power in Europe, the Mediterranean and the Far East. They have co-opted local marine specialists to appraise and service the myriad of requirements from the wide variety of boats they represent. Each boat has been visited, crawled over and is known in detail.

If you are an owner and want to sell we will be there with potential buyers and if you are a buyer who has a reasonable idea of what you want and the price you want to pay you may find it in these pages. If not call or contact us anyway....there are others.

“Just one point on your invoice. What’s the sundry charge for 36.50 € ?” That was the case of Muscat Sec you asked us to buy as a thank you to the new owner.

She’s exactly what I’ve been looking for but I am just a bit nervous about the handling.” No problem, Jean-Claude will spend a day with you to assist and instruct and then you will have complete confidence about any lock or mooring.”

“So where exactly was the leak?” It was a minuscule crack in the bow thruster mounting that Jean- Pierre managed to fix from the inside - a little miracle for 75 euros. So, subject to survey is it a done deal?

“The boat itself is perfect but the upholstery is a nightmare!” Well this is not something we do but let us introduce you to Mme Colbert and she will bring fabric samples or show you the alternatives on line.

“ You people could sell ice to the Eskimos!” Thanks but we’ll leave the kayaks to eBay ..meanwhile is the Sundancer still of interest?
