Pre-owned Yachts for Sale

Emerald Pacific Yachts takes special care to expose and advertise each yacht we represent. We look forward to helping you find the perfect boat for your yachting lifestyle!

Finding the right yacht doesn't start with the boat: It starts with you. So at Emerald Pacific Yachts, that's where we start, too. How do you want to use your yacht? What kind of lifestyle experience are you seeking? And what does the word "yacht" mean to you?

After all, a yacht can be a multimillion-dollar vessel with a helipad, a pleasure cruiser meant for taking the family on weekend getaways, or something in between. That's why we first get to know you and understand your own definition; then, we’ll find a boat that fits it perfectly.

Emerald Pacific Yachts has been a leader in the yachting industry on the West Coast for more than 20 years. Whether you’re looking for a pre-owned yacht, a new model, or you want to sell your current vessel, our team will provide expertise and support throughout the process—and during the years to come.

Our services are tailored to fit your situation, with as much support as you need and answers to your questions.

For Sellers

Our committed team uses sophisticated sales tools and strategies to attract the right audience for your yacht — and the right price.

My client testimonials.

Brant & I want to thank you for “going the extra mile”.  Your efforts on our behalf to purchase our next boat “For the Girls” was extraordinary.

In fact, the whole process was relatively seamless and for that we are grateful. Thank you, Byron for all your help, and we both wish you success in your future.

Joyce and I are both Real Estate Brokers and know the value of having Buyer specific representation during a sales transaction. When we walked into the Denison Yacht Sales and met with you about buying a motor yacht, we felt a good connection. You organized showings of different boats that could match our needs and price range. You were smart about our choices. I always felt you were on our side and not on the seller’s side of the deal. The end result is (with your consul), we picked the right boat for our needs. You followed thru on all details especially the inspections and final purchase price negotiations. Our decision to use a Boat Broker rather than listing broker or Boat-trader or even Craigslist was absolutely the right course for us.  We would highly recommend you to our friends or anyone who is going to buy a boat whether it is a power boat or sailboat. We love our new to us Trawler and appreciate the expert and friendly guidance you gave us. You will always be welcomed aboard.

Byron Shirley did a superb job representing and selling my Back Cove Yacht.

Byron analyzed an excellent cost comparison to other vessels which allowed an appropriate selling price for my boat. He was always prompt at answering any of my phone calls, and his communication skills with various professionals involved with the evaluation of the vessel were vital to the actual sale.

Byron enabled my vessel to receive great exposure on the yacht market listing network, and thus I received an excellent sales price with minimal time on the actual market. Denison Yachts and Byron are a great company to deal with, and I will use them again for any of my future yacht transactions.

Buying a boat can be an intimidating experience - especially when moving up to more complex boats that stretch your expertise as was the case when we bought Kraken, our Beneteau First 36.7 . Byron helped make this experience much less daunting than it might have been. He knew the boat well and got the answers we needed to make it a smooth process. When it came to that first voyage, bringing Kraken to her new home south of LA in a small weather window (almost) ahead of approaching rain Byron kindly volunteered to help, proved himself invaluable and despite the cold and dark start unflappable and a pleasure to sail with. At the end of the experience I had gained a significant amount of knowledge about the boat and confidence in my ability to sail her that might otherwise have taken much longer to achieve.

Denison Yachting is most fortunate to have Byron Shirley as a member of its brokerage team.

Byron recently handled the sale sale of our 42' Nordic Tug. His professional and competent advice, coupled with insightful and thoughtful support made our experience far better and far shorter than we anticipated.

Byron is thorough in his work, consistently customer-care oriented, astute in the negotiation process, and goes the extra mile for his clients. We heartily recommend Byron without reservation.

During the busy holiday season, Byron Shirley made our dreams of owning a boat by New Year’s Eve come true! Working with him was a pleasant and painless experience throughout the entire boat-buying process.

With great attention to detail, he continually kept us in the loop and always with a warm smile and positive attitude.

Byron was patient with us as we explored several different types of boats before making a final decision. He generously offered to help us transport the boat from Everett to Seattle, sacrificing an entire Saturday from dawn ‘til dusk, making this a seamless and stress-free experience.

He took extra time to help us fuel up, fill the water tanks, empty the holding tank, as well as explain many of the boat’s mechanical systems (not afraid to get on his hands and knees), and how to successfully navigate through the Ballard Locks for the first time.

He has also followed up with us several times after the sale to see if we had any questions or needed any help. We very much appreciate Byron’s advice and guidance during of entire purchase process!

I've had some amazing life experiences in the past year of sailing, and it started with great advice, support and follow through from Byron Shirley . In the beginning I was searching for the right kind of boat; a live aboard as well as a boat that I could comfortably single hand. Byron took the time to understand my needs and not only suggested the correct boat for me, but recommended the outfitting and upgrades that have enabled me to enjoy the experience post purchase. I ended up taking his advice, and purchasing a new Sense 43'. Byron stayed close through the outfitting process, and the attention to detail on many of my custom requests (extending the main berth, Apple upgrades for a mobile office, diesel heaters and outfitting for cold weather live aboard, etc.) Not only did Byron help with early suggestions, and attention to details through the purchase process, he also followed through by delivering the boat with me to San Francisco and helped ensure everything was perfect. I've heard that Yacht purchases are not for the faint of heart, but with Byron's support, from the choice of boat, to attention to details, and follow through made it rather simple and enjoyable.

We found Byron Shirley to be an excellent source for searching and securing the perfect yacht for our family's boating enjoyment in the Northwest.

Byron was thorough, timely and tactful from the negotiation phase through to the closing of the deal with an absent owner and the importation processing issues.

Byron Shirley is a solid source/agent for vessel transactions.  He went that extra mile to "make it happen" for us.

I just bought a trawler through Byron Shirley at Denison Yacht Sales in Seattle . It was an easy and enjoyable process.

From the survey and haul out to the final yacht closing paperwork, Byron made sure that everything was handled efficiently and professionally. He was able to get all my questions answered and was transparent to work with.

I would absolutely buy or sell again through Denison Yacht Sales. Thanks, Byron!

We recently purchased our Hunter 41 DS expertly guided through the process by broker Byron Shirley . From touring various sailboats in order to shape our vision of what type would be best suited to our needs, to the final steps leading to ownership, Byron was completely on point. There are many systems and processes that make up a modern day sailboat and he has well mastered all of them. Also, he exhibited a great deal of patience in answering all of my husband's incessant questions assuring clarity on all issues. They enjoyed communicating in their native French. Byron sailed with us through the Ballard Locks and south to our home slip sharing his vast knowledge of seamanship and helpful tips along the way making it a very enjoyable time for all. He truly wants buyers to be satisfied and is not simply eager to make a sale. We highly recommend Byron to anyone considering such a purchase.

Byron walked me through the entire boat buying process with extreme thoroughness & professionalism. He communicated well and really knew his stuff. I would highly recommend him to anyone interested in a fine boat purchase.

I recently utilized the services of Byron Shirley to sell my yacht. This was the second time Byron has sold one of my boats, and again his service was exceptional.

Byron is extremely knowledgeable about all aspects of handling a yacht sale, both for a buyer and the seller. His communication regarding all aspects of the sale was stellar, and with his high standards of ethics, you know that the transaction will be handled at an extremely high level of quality.

I look forward to another vessel in the future, and Byron Shirley will be my yacht broker for all aspects of the sale.

What our customers are saying

"Brooke and I cannot state strongly enough how grateful we are to have worked with Swiftsure. If we went purchasing alone, a tremendous amount of effort and uncertainty would have resulted with unknown consequences. For awareness, I've always purchased all large expense items on my own. Very pleased to have changed my ways, especially on this purchase!"

"Outstanding service. You have been exceptionally responsive by phone and by email. You've gone above and beyond to make this process as seamless as possible."

"Bob (Schoonmaker) was very knowledgeable and helpful. He helped us identify the type of boat that best fit our needs, answered question after question, and ultimately helped make the process easy! I wouldn't buy another boat with out him."

"We were so happy with your service that we really don’t have any suggestions for improvements! While we first found out about you online, we met at least four other boats during our inside passage this year (2017) who had done business with you in the past and all stated that we certainly could not have chosen a better brokerage! Again, a huge thank you."

"Overall, a very positive experience. All of the Swiftsure staff had a professional yet relaxed demeanor and showed a high level of product as well as a general sailing knowledge. The purchase transaction was conducted efficiently and to the highest ethical standard."

"I was looking at other boats on your site and Brad recommended the Caliber based on my needs. Very personal and helpful, outstanding service. Follow up and personal interests. It has been a very positive experience. Thank you to your crew!"

"The Swiftsure Team was involved in the selling of my boat. From listing to showing to supporting my preparations for the sales events they were there with good solid advice. Pete pointed out eye appeal items I could do to enhance the sale, staged "Lovely Lady" for great photos and then worked with numerous clients to send qualified buyers to view "Lovely Lady". Every time I asked a question or sought information, Swiftsure was there to support me. Their advertising and marketing was outstanding. I was very impressed that Pete flow to Fort Lauderdale just to take quality photos of "Lovely Lady" for Yacht World and the Swiftsure website. I felt informed and up to date throughout the process."

"I/we can't speak highly enough about Molly! This was the most straight forward, honest, and helpful interactions we have had with a broker. I mean Molly sold us a boat, but it felt like she just facilitated us meeting the boat we wanted. Zero pressure, but lots of help. And she was extremely flexible and available! Not all brokers treat both partner in a purchase as equal decision makers, Molly worked with me as a sailor, not the wife of a sailor, and that made all the difference. Also! It was super helpful to discuss purchasing and older boat with someone who owns an older boat, Molly expertise was appreciated!!!"

"One of the best brokers out there, very professional & knowlegable."

"Keep doing this kind of job! Very customer focused. Incredibly patient, educational, and supportive. Not pie in the sky but solid, real world perspectives. A very good experience."

"Swiftsure Yachts entered a market saturated with brokers, but with their knowledge, attention to detail and super communication, they quickly rose to the top. It is not by accident that they represented both Hallberg Rassy and Outbound yachts. I would not buy or sell a yacht in Seattle without their able assistance."

"The service is outstanding before, during and after the sale. Ken (Monaghan) is top notch, professional and goes the extra mile as a rule, not exception. Thanks to him and the rest of the Swiftsure team."

"Exceedingly knowledgeable and professional. - Worked very hard to sell my boat. - Go the extra mile. - Fun to work with. - 10% is a lot of money, but they earn it! - Deserve their high standing among yacht brokers. - Straight forward and honest. - I'd recommend them even to my sister - and she's picky! - If I'm ever crazy enough to buy another boat, I'd buy it from Swiftsure!"

 "Always available and responsive to our contacts. Good responses, always friendly and welcoming by all staff. The specifications were well written and with good thought, made the boat special. We were always kept in the loop, liked seeing the website hits to get a feel for how active the market is. No suggestions for improvement - exceeded expectations. Appreciated Ryan's willingness to see the boat out of the water prior to it's listing. His suggestions on what to have done to the boat to prepare her for sale made a sound difference in marketing our boat and the eventual sale. We always felt everyone at Swiftsure appreciated our business, made it a point of shaking our hand when we visited and felt the operation is run very well. Professional at all times."

"Bob (Schoonmaker) is the greatest. Not only through the buying experience but even more so in the post-buy interactions. He goes above and beyond to be really helpful. The best!"
