Everett Yacht Sales

Ahoy, fellow seafarers! Prepare to set sail on a review so epic, it'll make Poseidon himself raise an eyebrow! Buckle up, landlubbers, because I'm about to sing the praises of Steve Dittoe at Everett Yacht Sales like a mermaid serenading a pirate king!

Remember that 1979 34' Tollycraft Tri-cabin I once lovingly owned? Well, fate, the wind, and the currents conspired to bring her back to me! But fear not, this nautical reunion wasn't a stormy adventure filled with krakens and rogue waves. No, it was a smooth, sun-drenched journey guided by the most stellar captain I know: Steve Dittoe!

From the moment I heard his name as the broker, I knew this voyage was destined for smooth sailing. We've been sharing salty stories and Tollycraft wisdom for years through the Yacht Club, so I knew I was in good hands. And let me tell you, "Always People First" ain't just a motto at Everett Yacht Sales, it's Steve's personal compass!

Throughout the entire process, he had my back like a trusty first mate. He kept me informed every step of the way, no matter how minor. I felt like I was steering the ship alongside him, not just a passenger on his grand adventure. Transparency? He practically invented it! Communication? Clearer than a cloudless summer sky!

Seriously, folks, if you're looking for a yacht broker who treats you like family, someone who navigates deals with the skill of a seasoned captain, and whose passion for boats rivals that of Poseidon himself, then look no further than Steve Dittoe at Everett Yacht Sales! This wasn't just a transaction, it was a reunion of souls, all thanks to his incredible expertise and genuine care.

So, raise a glass of grog, fellow boat lovers, and join me in saluting Steve Dittoe! He's the real deal, the wind beneath your sails, the beacon in the harbor you never knew you needed. Now, if you'll excuse me, I have a boat to polish and a lifetime of memories to make with my old beauty by my side. Thanks, Steve, for making it happen!

P.S. Don't be surprised if you see me and my Tollycraft cruising the Sound, singing sea shanties about Steve Dittoe, the broker who turned a sale into a legend!

We had been searching for the right boat for 2 years. A friend recommended Steve Dittoe. He’s fair, friendly, and listens to what the customer wants. His experience and knowledge led us to our purchase.

Very good experience buying a TollyCraft from Bryan. He is honest, professional, helpful and knowledgeable. Highly recommend Everett Yacht Sales for your boating needs. Good people!

We had a great experience with Everett Yacht Sales using them as a broker for selling our 32’ Bayliner. We had no idea what we were doing, but Steve and crew talked us through every step of the process and managed even more of the details than we expected including finding detailers, mechanics, and captains for sea-trial. You can tell Steve has a lot of passion for boating and for getting people out on the water!

It took a while to get the listing posted, so I would recommend kicking off the process prior to boating season starting. We ended up finding some hidden mechanical issues, which caused our sale price to be lower than we were hoping for, but EYS closed the deal and we couldn’t have done it without them!

We would like to thank Steve and Phil at Everett Yacht Sales for the successful sale of our 37 Tolly “Dem Bones”. We hope the new owners Stephanie and Mike enjoy it as much as we have for the past 23 years!

My family just purchased our first boat from Everett Yacht Sales. Not knowing a whole lot about boats or boating in the Sound, it can be really intimidating shopping for your first boat. All the staff at Everett Yacht Sales are really friendly, knowledgeable, and honestly want to find something that is right for you. The owner, Steve went out of his way to be available whenever needed, whether for a survey or a sea trial. And when it came down to hooking up and rolling off, he and Bryan were both there to make sure the boat was detailed and ready to go, and they even helped trailer and load up all the accessories. We ended up with a great deal on a great boat, and felt comfortable and confident throughout the whole process. It's a great business, and a really great group of people!

We purchased our first cruiser, a Tolly 26, from Everett Yacht Sales just a few weeks ago. We primarily worked with Bryan, but interacted with Steve a lot via phone, during the sea trial, and for final closing. Generally speaking, Steve and Bryan were very attentive to what we were looking for, and I feel they legitimately cared about helping us find the right boat above all else. Their attentiveness to our needs and wants is something I feel is rare in a broker or dealer and was a stand out item for me in our experience. I would certainly go back to Everett Yacht Sales again in the future.

A friend of mine told me to contact Steve at Everett Yacht Sales when he heard that I was selling my boat. I figured that it would be a very hard boat to sell because there are no boats comparably equipped and I wanted top dollar for my boat. My first contact was with Nick nice person but younger and I really didn’t like what he told me about what needed to be done to prep my boat for listing (totally different than what I thought needed to be done) I told my friend about my experience and he said deal with Steve. I met Steve at my boat we went over everything and he told me the same thing that Nick had said but he also put it with the caveat I didn’t have to do anything and any boat will sell if the price is low enough but if I wanted and easy sell do it his way I decided to listen to him and got the boat in the condition he wanted it in.
Nick came down and took some awesome pictures of the boat and talked to me about the boat history and unique features.
The next day the boat was listed. Within 3 days I had an offer and in 4 days we had singed agreement
Steve, Nick and Brian were instrumental in selling my boat
GREAT JOB GUYS

I contacted this company concerning a yacht that was advertised. We made an appointment with Steve to go look at the craft. The brokers at this company really pushed they were a people first company. We hear this a lot in any kind of sales but right off the bat we could see that this was the case with EYS. They was very honest and forth coming. we was like “I can’t believe they pointed that out we would never have seen that until after the purchase” this was a big deal to me being a new large boat owner. I helped me feel very comfortable. We at this day have not made a commitment. But we are getting close. I was able to look at this craft and had time to do all my homework and Steve is still helping me get answers on updates the craft needs to keep us safe on the water. We do recommend EYS and we will keep our dealings updated as we go on this journey, to help other potential buyers feel the comfort we have felt.

We just completed the sale of our 26’ Tolly. We had some ups and downs on the boat, and would have been dead in the water if we would have tried to navigate a sale on our own. Steve and Bryan helped us and more importantly reassured us that we would make it through the final sale. Throughout the entire experience we didn’t have just a sales guy helping us we built a real friendship with the team. When we are ready to buy our next boat, it’s a simple decision to call Steve! Thank you again.

What a wonderful Yacht Brokerage in Everett. A new business but filled with very experienced boaters and business people. They definitely live the motto, people first. I've had the pleasure working with Bob Wolven over several years. He is truly a man with high ethics and a true joy to spend time with. The same sums up Steve Dittoe too. You would be making a great decision to work with them on theirs or any other listing from other brokerages.

I have known Steve and Bryan at EYS for many years and can vouch for them as men of high character and moral values. They definitely care more about people and the joy of boating ahead of big profits. They provide a great service helping owners sell their boats and providing a selection of affordable options for buyers. Buying a boat is not like picking up a new lawn mower at Lowes! It is a major purchase and one of the biggest purchases you may make besides a home. Unfortunately some people don't understand the process and have unrealistic expectations. Any problem that may arise can be addressed by the guys at EYS. They really want to take care of the customer!

Steve, while we have not purchased a yacht from your company your willingness to go out of your way for virtual strangers is impressive and appreciated. Your knowledge of all areas related to “boating” has been appreciated. I’m sure your company’s attitude and perspective mirrors you. With that in mind we will definitely give you and your company a call to represent our interests.

A huge shout out for Everett Yacht Sales and Steve Dittoe! Thank you so much for making our dream come true of owning a wonderful yacht! You were so helpful and easy to work with. We couldn't be happier and you are welcome aboard "The Woman to Blame" any time!

I had an all round excellent purchasing experience with EYS ... the key was full confidence that they were working diligently to arrange a compromise deal for both buyer and seller. Steve and others at EYS know what they are doing, know the marina, the surveyors, the boat yard specialists... so there is lots of help to get a good end experience.

Steve Dittoe who I worked with took the time to take additional photos prior to my arrival. Took me out on a test run and corrected the issues immediately, that day. The purchase day was a little busy do to all paper work and repairs but Steve came through on his commitment. Highly recommend Steve.

These folks were great. Bought our first cabin cruiser with their assistance. Bryan was helpful, helped us make sure the boat checked out, and went above and beyond each step. Highly recommend.

We heard about Everett Yacht Sales from a good friend. We wanted a broker that understood our boat and knew it would be a bit emotional. We found that with Steve Dittoe and Nick Dittoe. We would recommend them to anyone.

We sold another boat through Everett Yacht Sales! thank you for your kind service.

Steve and Mike at Everett Yacht Sale did a great job at getting the seller to meet me, and this made for a great day and boat buying experience.
Thanks Steve and Mike!!!
