Just bought a Jeanneau 43DS from Nick at Shoreline. I'm a former broker myself, so I've seen all sorts in this business. Nick is a sailor himself and really appreciates the lifestyle at all levels. From the very start he treated my wife and I like friends and made sure the whole process was as smooth as possible. 5 stars is not enough. This is my 6th boat and my absolute best buying experience. Nick is welcome aboard anytime! I can't say more than that. ;-)

In their own words
I had a great experience working with Jack as my boat broker! He was extremely responsive and always honest with me throughout the entire process. Jack is a genuinely nice guy and very easy to work with. He put in the time and effort needed to get the sale done smoothly, and I couldn’t be happier with the outcome. I’ll definitely be working with him again in the future and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable broker.
I purchased my Amel Maramu with Shoreline Yacht group and couldn't be happier. I started looking for my perfect sailboat to sail around the world with. Paul was with me from the beginning and patiently sent me listing over the span of 1 year. We met up and looked at boat after boat and thanks to his vast experience as a sailor/cruiser he pointed out each vessel's pros and cons and gave me great recommendations. I eventually purchase the Amel and to this day (5 years later) am still happily cruising around with the occasional technical support from my now dear friend Paul :)
Greetings,
My name is Chester Salisbury,
and I am an 60 year veteran of big boat sailing and cruising.
So far I have had four very pleasant, and successful transactions with Shoreline Yacht Group.
Nick Friedman, the broker, and a Prince of a guy, and Paul Megna who is the most astute and knowledgeable boat sales agent I have ever known.
Paul can only be described as the best I have ever done business with, (and I have bought and sold a lot of boats!)
If I decide to buy another boat, Nick and Paul
will be involved, or there will be no deal!
You can take my word for it. Shoreline Yacht Group is the place to go when buying, or selling a boat.
No hype, knowledgeable, and unquestionable integrity. They will tell you what boat not to buy
More often than what boat to buy.
Bon Voyage!
ChetMy name is Dustin and I bought my first boat from Shoreline Yacht Group back in 2017. From the start, Nick and Paul were extremely helpful, honest, transparent, and willing to go above and beyond every step of the way. The amount of time spent with me throughout the process was truly astonishing! Not only was the buying process enjoyable with the Shoreline Team, both Nick and Paul have continued to be an invaluable asset to me with guidance, knowledge, and help of any kind. I still have the boat which has brought me more joy than I could have ever imagined. I am lucky to have had an amazing and positive experience owning a boat, all thanks to Nick and Paul at Shoreline!
Working with Shoreline Yacht Group both on the selling and buying side has been nothing short of extraordinary. Paul was absolutely professional and has gone above and beyond in selling and helping us find the perfect boat. His extensive knowledge about yachts is hard to find. Without him I would not have sailed across the pacific on the boat of my dreams. Thank you Paul and thank you Shoreline.
Kimberly was the first honest broker I encountered in my years of shopping for my perfect sailboat. I couldn’t understand why so many brokers think it’s advantageous to be full of it. Kimberly agrees.
Nick stuck with us through so many sailboat viewings and helped us find the perfect boat! We were so happy with this group and the service. Thank you, Nick!
We had a smooth and flawless experience with Captain Paul!
He was attentive in every aspect of our transaction. We are very happy with our purchase and in the future if we decide to upgrade we will be calling him first... We would highly recommend him to the novice and well as experienced boaters!Purchased a yacht through John Hart. He is very genuine. Thats the best you can be when selling boats.
My wife and I just purchased our first boat from Paul Megna. We have had experiences with other agents and Paul sets himself apart from any Agent/Broker I have ever met. Paul was never pushy and was very patient with us, especially being beginners to the sailing world. He walked us through the entire process and still assists us today with anything we need. If Paul cannot fix the problem or answer your question, he finds someone who can. His boating knowledge is impressive. If you are new to boating or experienced, I would not hesitate working with Paul. He is old school in personal communication and follows through on his word, which in these days is hard to find!
Nick and everyone here is super helpful......love my boat!
Nick and his team are the best.
