Who are We?
MoneyForYourBoat.com is a family business with deep roots of over 30 years in the boating industry. Mark Lassila, father, started buying and selling boat's in the mid 80s as a way to make extra money during High School. In just a few short years, Mark built a business as one of the top boat exporters in the country. Marine Connection, Mark's boat dealership, saw dynamic growth in the 90s and 2000s as a new boat dealership and was named Boat Dealer of the Year in 2008. Shortly after, Mark sold Marine Connection to focus on his family and two growing boys.
When Mark's boys, Nick and Alex, started developing an itch for a business of their own, they took after their father's footsteps and with him formed MoneyForYourBoat.com. Now days they are in search of used boats in good condition, tired and neglected boats - or those that customers simply don't have the time to enjoy anymore. After some TLC, boats are sold to wholesale customers both local and international.
Looking to sell your boat yourself?
Before you place that classified ad, read below to find out why it makes more sense to sell your boat to us instead.
- Make it easy on yourself Selling your boat requires significant effort on your part. In order to sell your used boat, you'll have to do things like running classified ads, field phone calls and have strangers come to your house to go on test drives. Then of course, you'll have to negotiate.
- Avoid boat repair If you sell your boat, you will need to ensure it is maintained and all parts are working. This is extra worry and expense on your part.
- Protect yourself Selling your boat can be very dangerous. If you do choose to sell your boat yourself, be extremely careful and take the proper precautions to ensure your personal and financial safety. When setting up appointments with potential buyers that you don't know, only schedule meetings when a friend or family member can be there with you.
- Walk away freely When you sell your boat to us, you'll prevent any issues with a dissatisfied customer later on. What happens if the engine burns up or the trailer breaks? If you sell your boat, the new owner knows where you live and may contact or harass you. When you sell to us, the dealership assumes all of the responsibility and you can walk away carefree.
“The two happiest days of a boat owner; the day he buys it and the day he sells it.”
