Oh, don't get me wrong, I've run across some HORRIBLE ones. One got fired by the owner of a boat I was looking at while we were negotiating. I walked away; the broker got fired. Another one showed me a boat that didn't have everything on my list of "must haves"; we spent 40 mins looking for the A/C unit, which it turns out it didn't have. The one I've used 3x is awesome.You have had a very different experience with broakers than i have had.
