"My wife and I were impressed with Ensign's service. Tony's willingness to discuss with us at great depth various options, explain to us relative novices the various details of yachts and yachting, and acquire information on potential boats was quite surprising and refreshing to us, and indeed very impressive. Even though we in fact ended up pursuing a boat from a different brokerage, Ensign's efforts were invaluable. Thanks Tony and team!"

"I was very satisfied with Gordon Ross' professional approach to facilitate the sale of my yacht. He had a sound knowledge of my boat and its capabilities and therefore was able to pass on all the pros and cons to prospective buyers, thereby guaranteeing not only a happy seller but also a happy purchaser with the right boat for his needs. Gordon was always willing to help in any way he could to make the sale run as smoothly as possible and I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone whether buying or selling a boat in the future."

"Yacht brokers are like pebbles on the beach. You don't have to look too far to find one. That is of course if you don't necessarily want the best in the business. I myself have been dabbling in vessels from put-put boats to multi million dollar yachts for business and pleasure for the past 60 years. As a result, I have attained a broad range of knowledge based on my experience in relation to yacht brokers that have been from good, to bad and indifferent. If you were to ask me who I thought were the best in the business at this point in time, I would unreservedly state Ensign Ship Brokers.

If you were to ask me the reason for my recommendation, I would not bore you with pages of pros attesting to their grasp of the boating industry, nor would I regale you with tales of past deals done where their performance has been beyond reproach. I wouldn't point to their broad based experience and professionalism in various aspects of marine business. I wouldn't bore you with their impressive sales record, presentation, commitment etc, although all the above are true. I would sum up what they have to offer in two words – INTEGRITY and KNOWLEDGE. If you have a broker with those qualities, there is nothing else you could possibly ask for.

I have consummated a number of multi million dollar transactions through Ensign Ship Brokers and I have absolutely no hesitation whatsoever in giving them my stamp of approval as a business that others in the field should seek to emulate. If you want the best, deal with Ensign."

I purchased a Compass 38 named Tiger Rag from you in February, I feel that so many people are quick to criticise and very slow to show appreciation where required.

Your business that you run in Gladstone is one of the very highest standard that I have dealt with; I felt that your professionalism was demonstrated in all areas that I had dealings with you. My business dealings with you, Ensign in Gladstone, started with your prompt reply to my questions on Yacht Hub in relation to the listing for the yacht, this was continued on the phone and throughout the entire negotiation and sale process.

Your business etiquette and desire to satisfy was highly demonstrated not only to myself the purchaser but also the seller.

You obviously have a high belief in not only a professional service to your customers but provide a service that you yourself would like from others, I felt that you went beyond what I was expecting and certainly was necessarily required, as your assistance to me continued well after the sale was completed and for this I am extremely appreciative.

Once again many thanks for your help and I wish you both all the best for the future.
