Ian was a very responsive professional who is the right guy you want in your corner when purchasing a boat. I’ve met other brokers, and without a doubt recommend Ian above the rest.

You might think a five‑star rating with 114 reviews is hyperbole—it isn’t. It’s well earned, and this is review #115. Ian Van Tuyl is simply the best. I worked with lanother broker for seven months with no results—lots of words, little action. Ian took my listing on May 7, and I had the sale proceeds in hand by May 28. Ian provided excellent advice and marketed the listing creatively and effectively. The boat was staged perfectly for showings, and every prospect was carefully nurtured. Negotiations were handled professionally, and the survey and sea trial were managed seamlessly. Most impressive was that Ian handled everything personally rather than delegating—relentless communication and decisive action throughout the process. My wife and I were delighted to work with Ian, and the buyer was equally comfortable. Ian came highly recommended by the owner of a large yacht management company, who said Ian is simply the best—and that couldn’t be more accurate.

Ian did a great job. He was a very knowledgeable and easy guy to work with when selling our Yacht. He goes above and beyond!

What are the odds of buying a boat and selling a boat on the same day? We did that and would never have survived it without Ian’s help along the way. From talking me off the ledge after bank delays🤯, to staying calm throughout, being ever informative and most of all, AVAILABLE at all times. Ian is the busiest person I know but gives the attention to clients as needed without complaining. Ever. If you are looking for a boat, he’s your guy. If you’re selling a boat, he’s got the connections. Give him a call!!!

As a first-time boat buyer, I had a lot of questions, Ian took the time to walk me through every step of the process from navigating surveys and sea trials to the paperwork, they made what could have been an overwhelming experience feel smooth and manageable. What stood out most was their honesty and attention to detail. I always felt supported and well-informed, and never pressured. Thanks to their expertise and dedication, I’m now the proud owner of a 97 Beneteau 351. I couldn’t be more excited for the adventures ahead.

It was so easy working with Ian. He sold our boat very quickly without any complications, even though we were doing this from Europe and a 9 hour time difference. Thanks Ian!

Ian handled the sale of our boat as both the seller's broker and the buyer's broker. He handled the sale professionally. Both the seller and buyer were pleased with his work. The transaction was completed successfully and expeditiously. I highly recommend Ian and would use him again.

Like all the other reviews, Ian is super responsive. I think what makes him great is he is a one man show so he is 100% invested. The only issue I had was with transferring funds, but that was 100% the banks fault and he went above and beyond to corrects the banks shortfalls. 95% of other people would just blame the bank and make me wait. A few would apologize perfusely. Ian invested hours to get me my funds several days earlier than I would have otherwise . Thanks Ian!!

Ian was simply the best! He’s super easy to work with, super knowledgeable about all things boats, and made my experience extremely stress-free. I can’t emphasize enough how much Ian made this process smooth and worry free. If you are looking to buy a boat or sell a boat, you won’t go wrong working with Ian.

Purchasing my sailboat through Ian was an incredible experience from start to finish. He’s professional, knowledgeable, and truly goes above and beyond for his clients. Every step of the process felt smooth and transparent, and I always felt like I was in excellent hands. Ian also connected me with an amazing team of surveyors who made the entire buying process seamless and supportive. His network, expertise, and attention to detail made what could have been a stressful experience genuinely enjoyable. Ian isn’t just a great broker — he’s someone who truly cares about helping you find the right boat and ensuring you feel confident every step of the way. I couldn’t recommend him more highly — he’s earned a customer for life!

Ian has handled the purchase/sale of our last 3 boats. He’s responsive and knowledgeable, and has always been willing to assist with any boat-related questions well after the transaction is complete. I highly recommend IVT!

We have completed several transactions with Ian over the years! Ian is professional, responsive, very knowledgable about sailboats and powerboats and the brands he represents, and wonderful to work with. He is also very well connected in the industry and if he does not know the answer, he'll find an expert who does. Whether you are looking to buy or sell, or do both, give Ian a call. You will not regret it!
