I want to send a note on the service of Steve Palazzo.
Within 30 days from listing, he locked down a sale. The communication during this process was far better than most transitions I’ve experienced in Florida.
After meeting Steve and experiencing his service first-hand, the buyers told me, they wished they found him to be their yacht broker.
Thanks for your service and quick sale for all the money!

My yacht broker, Drew Offerdahl, brokered the deal on the 38 Tiara LX I recently purchased. Drew has been a real professional. He developed a good relationship with us early in the process when we were looking, even driving a very long way to meet us. He then found the Tiara, told me about it, then drove to Marco Island to check it out.

Throughout the negotiation process, he was most interested in making sure I got what I wanted. Once I put a deposit on the boat, he convinced me to come down to see the boat and go for a sea trial before the close date, giving me ample opportunity to change my mind if I chose.

Since the close, he has been extremely helpful in putting me in touch with good companies for the close process, surveying, insurance, painting, and transporting.

And I’m convinced that if I need any help with the boat in the future, I can call on him without hesitation.

Drew is the type of salesperson that I tried to hire when I ran my company: smart, personable, humble, caring. The kind of person a client wants to do business with because, while he certainly wants to make the sale, Drew also wants a happy client. Denison is lucky to have him working for the company.

I recently had the pleasure of selling one boat and purchasing two others through Denison Yacht Sales. It has been an absolute pleasure doing business with Denison and all of your staff.

It is all too rare to come upon a business that is operated as well as yours. It is rarer still to have the pleasure of doing business with such experienced, knowledgeable, and dedicated yacht brokers.

That applies across the board with all of those at Denison that I interfaced with. Of particular note is Patrick Hopkins. He was the reason I ultimately decided to work with Denison and I have never regretted that choice. He is an exceptionally talented, professional, and resourceful representative for you, and his guidance, expertise, qualifications, and dedication are exemplified in everything he does. I feel myself blessed to have had him advocate for me. I also now feel thankful to be able to count him as a friend. I make it a habit to now advocate for Denison Yacht Sales and Patrick Hopkins with anyone interested in yacht purchases and sales.

I am reaching out to let you know about the positive experience we had on a recent purchase of our 2018 Bertram.

Being in a similar business to Denison (the company I founded sells $5M to $100M properties worldwide), I know firsthand that a sales representative who can deal with high-net-worth people does not grow on trees.

Specifically, Max was calm and thoughtful at all times and not just looking for a quick payday. His follow-up was world-class. We met at the FLL boat show three years ago, and he continued to follow up in a non-obnoxious but consistent way until we were ready to pull the trigger.

Our recent purchase is likely the first of many, and I cannot imagine working with anyone other than Max.
