Welcome to the Oxford Yacht Agency. In addition to new boat sales and yacht brokerage we are also proficient in all phases of boat maintenance and repairs, marine insurance repairs, fiberglass boat repairs, custom work and offer indoor boat storage as well as outside winter dry storage.

Yacht Brokerage News

Attention Buyers and Sellers... Send your survey list to us for estimates to satisfy survey requirements. We offer full service repairs at competitive prices to help your boat sale succeed!

We see a lot of boats come straight from a brokerage sale into the service yard. With some boats selling at a bargain that may not fit the exact requirements, it often pays to take the deal and have our service department make those upgrades to fulfill your requirements.

Excellent Buy....This well cared for 1998 Grand Banks 36 Classic has just been drastically reduced for quick sale. This boat has been maintained here in our service yard for years and is a gem and is now offered at an unbelievable price for a boat with stainless rails, painted decks, vacuflush heads and more. Give Rob a call for more details. Also at a good value available in our brokerage department is a very nice 1986 Cape Dory 28 Cruiser.

Market Conditions ... Despite the downward trend of economic conditions, the smart seller knows the importance of offering the best boat in a slow market. There are fewer buyers who are demanding boats that are properly maintained, in good cosmetic condition and with good equipment. If your boat is at the bottom of the condition scale, there are few hopes for selling. OYA offers the ability to bring a boat to top condition and keep it that way because our boats for sale for the most part are kept inside during inclement weather and are not constantly physically depreciated each day by sun and wind and Dickerson Harbor is located in near fresh water so the effects of salt are nil. See our latest Sevice Log for an articles entitled Contaminating the Pool which elaborates more on market conditions and Why your boat isn't selling.

From our Service Department

Awlgrip Refinishing is a big deal with many potential buyers deciding to defer upgrading to new boats until the economic forecast is more positive. In response to the consumer's demand, we have been strengthening our Awlgrip Marine Finishing department to accomodate more boats by adding a new Awlgrip professional to our staff. Give us a call if we can help you out.

Special Projects... We have just completed two very special projects in our service department — a custom Eastbay 38 hardtop and an Eastbay 43 Helmdeck enclosure. If you have a unique project you need for your boat, contact us. We thrive on custom work.
