I have now bought and sold multiple boats with Mike and Denison Yachting. Mike is one of the best and most knowledgeable yacht brokers I have ever come across. He is supported by a first rate company with a CEO that will personally reply to his customers, regardless of the size of the transaction. No client is less important than another. Mike consistently went far above and beyond what was expected at every step of the process. More importantly, he truly cares greatly about building a long term relationship that goes far beyond just one transaction. My ongoing experience with Mike as a trusted resource has been incredibly refreshing. In a world where honest care and trust has eroded so deeply, Mike and Denison stand head and shoulders above the rest. Couldnt recommend more highly!

Very unprofessional, This company is dishonest and are doing fishy transactions. They sold me and my husband a boat without the title they did not tell us that they didnt have the title till after we paid in full. It has been 6 months since we purchased the boat in cash and we still dont have the title we dont know whats behind it, but no one can give us an answer, they ignore us and give us attitude every time we ask for the title and they also refuse to take the boat back we dont know what to do because we cant Register the boat or have it insured if we do not have the title. Our broker was Mike Mcniece and he give us a different excuse every week. If you dont need the headache Do your self a favor and run from this place. We are very disappointed and now we have to hire a lawyer to handle it.

Lacks integrity and transparency, and utilizes pushy sales tactics!Buying a sailboat should be a great day unless youre working with a Broker who lacks integrity, lacks transparency, and utilizes unethical sales tactics. This Broker is AMANDA HALEY from DENISON YACHTING, Dania Beach, Florida. The vessel being purchased (named AIR TO AIR) is a BENETEAU 46, model SENSE. I suspect this vessel may have had hurricane damage which the Broker elected not to disclose. To this point, when we asked AMANDA to have a Vessel Discloser Form completed by the Seller (LLC) she stated it is not necessary and not done in the state of Florida. Instead, she said this request was redundant as it is covered in the Warranty of Title and survey.Note, a VESSEL DISCLOSURE FORM is a very simple questionnaire pertaining to any previous vessel damage, such as hull damage, fire damage, water and/or lightning damage. This Form was given to us by a surveyor in Charleston, SC.I get that when buying a vessel it is at your own risk, which is why a surveyor is employed. AMANDAs refusal to entertain the idea of this Form should have been a red flag. I suspect the Broker and her Brokerage company should have a responsibility to be truthful to the public, and/or do their due diligence to ascertain the existence of previous damage especially when the Sellers actions create some suspicion.A second red flag should have been the exclusion of relevant information regarding the vessel (i.e. Owner, Hull number, Engine) in all drafts of the Purchase and Sales Agreement even though we continually asked AMANDA to complete these fields. Its also worth noting each time we asked questions or needed another day to seek advice, shed said that the seller was losing his patience and would move to a backup offer. This was with us making an offer the day we saw the boat (April 4, 2019), signing the contract on April 10th with an Acceptance date of April 18, and agreeing to close April 30th (subsequently moved to May 13, 2019). I dont know what world AMANDA lives in, but that is by no means dragging our feet.Besides the typical survey and sea trial, we added to the terms in the contract (i) a signed LLC Resolution -- which would show the seller had a right to sell the boat on behalf of the LLC, (ii) Warranty of Title and (iii) Vessel Disclosure Form. Per Amanda, the Seller refused to maintain this language in the Purchase and Sales Agreement. Whether he was misguided in his response by Amanda, his listing agent, it doesnt really matter as the end result was the same -- he lost the opportunity to sell his vessel in a timely manner. I suspect, although, the real issue was the Vessel Disclosure Form that created the issue and ultimately sank the deal. -- no pun intended.I should state that we are not afraid to purchase a vessel with hull damage or other damage, of course assuming its correctly repaired. But in this deal and with this Broker, Amandas unethical actions and her sales tactics have left us suspicious of the entire transaction and thus forced us to walk from the deal.I have since spoken to the Sales Manager of Denison Yachting, Rick Young. Based on the facts of our transaction, he advised us: to walk from the deal as clearly, the seller is trying to hide something. With this suspicion hanging in the winds, how Rick Young handles this listing moving forward is something of interest. Will Denison Yachting modify the listing details? Will he leave his company potentially exposed?On a positive note, we met a few good eggs in navigating the attempt to purchase this vessel -- Matthew Morrison, Denison Yachting Broker (Dania Beach) who was honest, fair and understanding, and Noelle Norvell, Luxury Financial Group (Fort Lauderdale) who jumped through hoops to get our financing approved within 48 hours.I remain optimistic that we will secure another vessel and will be sailing the high seas in the coming months! Keep it Honest. Happy Sailing.
