Testimonials
We recently listed & finally sold our boat through American House of Yachts.
We live in the UK & have had our 1995 42ft Grand Banks for 10 years docked at Riviera Dunes Marina where we have spent the winters.
We found this company to be very customer focused and their level of communication with us & the buyer must professional, timely & effective nothing was too much trouble. Debbie ( who was the broker handling the sale ) made herself available, often out of office hours due to the time difference between the US & the UK.
Her approachable manner & ability to solve problems gave us every confidence that our boat was in safe hands in our absence.
Although we are sad to sell our boat we are grateful to this company for helping us & highly recommend them to future clients.
Jennifer & Stephen Gough
Thank you very much Julie.
You did a wonderful job selling “Heart of Gold”
I have sold many boats over the years and this was by far the best experience I’ve had.
Start to finish you made it easy.
When we buy our next boat you will be the first person we call.
Thanks Again, Thane Gilliam

Carl and I sincerely want to thank you for all the effort you put forth in selling our Island Packet. Your persistence and drive in bringing new and repeat perspective buyers resulted in the sale.
We appreciate your ability to communicate between buyer and seller since you represented both in this case. It was so appreciated that you came to the survey and sea trial.

Julie – Thank you so much for being my boat broker, you helped me find the perfect boat. I looked at several boats around the state for months. Julie made the process a lot faster and smoother. I told Julie all the things I was looking for on a boat and she did the research for me. Not only did she show me a few boats, but she coached me on how to be objective in my search. Julie took the time to explain every step to me in a way that I could understand and walked me through the whole process.
Julie was always reachable by phone or text whenever I had a question. If I know of anyone looking to buy a boat, I would highly recommend Julie Annette as a first class broker.

I would like to thank Julie Annette for a great experience while shopping for my sailboat. She was very patient and polite while I inspected many different kinds of sailboats and asked all kinds of questions. Julie was with me through the entire buying process, including the sea trial. To anyone looking for a professional broker, I will highly recommend Julie Annette.

We would like to thank you again, as a result of your hard work and diligence you found the 40’ Mainship trawler that we had been looking for; just one month after selling our sailboat. And again you were there for the whole process including the survey for that purchase as well.
We regard your services as professional, and at the same time friendly. Warm regards, Carl Hunt Janet Thomas

Julie helped us find our first boat. We appreciated her patience and knowledge as she guided us through the buying process. We were new to boating and found her insights invaluable as we began to hone in our needs and wants. My wife and I were impressed by the time and effort Julie put in our search for our Morgan 381. We highly recommend Julie. We will be using her services again.

On this vessel the pictures tell the story of a quality built and maintained yacht!
The Mainship 430 Trawler has taken a classic design and improved it through innovative engineering and modern manufacturing methods. Since its inception 20 years ago, Mainship has produced thousands of boats - mostly in the trawler family. The focus has been, in building high-quality, low maintenance diesel cruisers that are comfortable and affordable. The 430 Trawler has a fully instrumented lower helm that allows operation during inclement weather, and is equipped with full washers and wipers. The comfortable and adjustable pilot seat makes any voyage comfortable. From the expansive flybridge, captains have a full unobstructed view to all points. Both overhead and console space have been dedicated to electronic needs. Aft of the standard radar mast, are molded steps with diamond non-skid leading to the aft deck with a door to the swim platform which stores the tender. Sturdy stainless-steel rails offer excellent handholds, and the cockpit is lowered for safer and easier entry to the full-size hydraulic swim platform that includes a convenient swim ladder, and freshwater shower. Heading to the integrated pulpit is safe for all with the wide decks and high bulwarks of the 430. Fore and aft shore power outlets allow for choice of docking. The port and starboard cabin doors make short handing a snap as well. Counter space is usually at a premium on a boat of this size, but the galley on the 430 Trawler is a chef's paradise with plenty of Corian-covered counters, an oversize sink, a three-burner range, a microwave oven, a refrigerator, and loads of storage. The adjustable mast also make this the perfect loop Cruiser!

Rear access panel to generator. Inverter for galley with separate breaker and galley battery Microwave can run off shore power or galley battery.
