For Buyers

Buying Questions

How does consignment buying work?

You browse our inventory just like a dealership. The difference: our prices are often lower because sellers set competitive prices and we earn a broker fee — not a dealership markup. You get a better deal, the seller gets a fair price, everyone wins.

Can I finance a boat or RV through The Boat Broker?

Yes. We work with multiple lenders and offer competitive rates on approved credit. Use our online calculator to estimate payments, or apply for pre-approval right on our website. All credit types welcome.

Do you offer warranties on pre-owned units?

Pre-owned units are sold as-is, but we can connect you with extended warranty providers. New Barletta and Bentley boats come with full manufacturer warranties. We’ll always tell you what we know about a unit’s condition — no surprises after the sale.

Can I take a test ride or test drive?

Absolutely. We do lake tests on Lake Havasu for boats — call ahead so we can have the unit ready. For RVs, we offer supervised test drives from the lot. No pressure, no tricks. Try it before you buy it.

Do you negotiate on price?

All prices are posted online and reflect fair market value. Consignment units are priced by the seller. On dealer-owned inventory, there’s sometimes flexibility — ask us directly. We won’t play games. If there’s room to move, we’ll tell you.

How do I transfer a boat title in Arizona?

We handle title and registration paperwork as part of every sale. You don’t need to visit the DMV or ADOT yourself. We prepare the assignment of title, submit the paperwork, and coordinate registration — and every fee is itemized up front, before you sign.

For Sellers

Selling Questions

How do I sell my boat, RV, or car through The Boat Broker?

Consign it with us. A broker looks it over, and we agree on a fair market value together. There are no fees, and we handle the buyers, the showings, the paperwork, and the title. We have been doing this in Lake Havasu for 40 years.

What does it cost to list with you?

Nothing. There are no fees to consign and no commission taken out of your check. We agree on a fair market value together, and that is the amount you get paid.

How long does it take to sell?

Our consignment agreement runs 90 days, and most units sell within that time. If yours hasn’t sold by then, the agreement continues month to month with no fixed end date.

Do I get paid right away when it sells?

Once it sells and delivers to the new buyer, you get a check for the agreed amount within 10 business days, or the funds can go toward your loan.

Do you accept trade-ins?

Here is how it works: buy the unit you want, and we will consign the one you have. There are no fees, we agree on a fair market value together, and once it sells you get a check within 10 business days, or the funds can go toward your loan. We have been doing this for 40 years.

General

General Questions

Where are you located?

We have three locations in Lake Havasu City, AZ. Our primary customer location is the Main Showroom at 1680 Industrial Blvd. Start there for current boats, RVs, classic cars, and help locating a specific unit.

What are your hours?

Are you a dealership or a brokerage?

We are a licensed brokerage. Most units are consigned from private sellers — meaning we handle everything while the seller retains ownership until the deal closes. We are also an authorized dealer for Barletta Boats and Bentley Pontoons — the only authorized dealer for both in Lake Havasu City — plus Mercury Marine and Volvo Penta.

Do you ship boats out of state?

We don’t ship directly, but we can connect you with transport brokers who specialize in boat and RV delivery. Many of our buyers are from Phoenix, Las Vegas, Southern California, and beyond — transport is very common. We’ll help coordinate if needed.

Do you have a service department?

We offer basic pre-delivery inspection and reconditioning. For full-service marine and RV repair, we work with trusted local shops in Lake Havasu City and can refer you to the right one for your unit’s make and model.
