Selling your Beneteau boat starts with good preparation, a realistic asking price, and the right presentation for the right buyers. Schepenkring, as a certified yacht broker, guides you through the entire sales process: from the initial valuation to the final transfer. Thanks to a national network of branches and a trilingual website, your Beneteau reaches a wide audience of Dutch and international buyers. You don't have to arrange viewings yourself, negotiate, or handle paperwork. Schepenkring takes care of all of that for you.
Why is a Beneteau a sought-after vessel on the second-hand market?
Beneteau was founded in 1884 and has been producing high-quality sailing and motor yachts for over 130 years. This long track record directly translates into a strong position on the second-hand market. Buyers know what they are buying: a brand with proven quality, broad parts availability, and an active user community. This makes a Beneteau more attractive than many other brands in the same price range.
Innovation in the construction of efficient and robust boats, knowledge of materials, excellence in design and finish, and efforts to reduce environmental impact make the French shipyard one of the best in terms of marine quality. This reputation works to your advantage as a seller: buyers are willing to pay a fair price for a well-maintained Beneteau, knowing that the brand retains its value.
You will find the brand in many European ports. This speaks to its popularity, but also to its long-term reliability. A Beneteau therefore not only sells quickly, but also to a wide target group: from novice sailors to experienced cruisers who are specifically looking for a particular model.

How does the sales process work at Schepenkring?
The sales process at Schepenkring is transparent, structured, and completely hassle-free. You don't have to take a single step yourself after contacting us. The yacht broker takes over completely, from the initial assessment to the key handover.
The sales process proceeds in the following steps:
- Intake and valuation The yacht broker assesses your Beneteau on site and determines a realistic selling price based on the current market.
- Professional presentation Your boat will be inventoried and photographed for publication on the Schepenkring website and in trade magazines. The trilingual website increases reach to Dutch, German, and English-speaking buyers.
- Viewings without your presence Because almost every Schepenkring-yacht broker berths has mooring or storage places close to the office, interested buyers can view the boat without an appointment and without your presence.
- Negotiations and contract handling The yacht broker conducts negotiations on your behalf and draws up the purchase agreement in accordance with HISWA terms and conditions and contracts.
- Transfer and aftercare After the transfer, the yacht broker remains available for any questions from buyer or seller.
All Schepenkring-yacht brokers are members of HISWA and work exclusively with HISWA terms and conditions and contracts. This gives both you and the buyer certainty about a correct and transparent transaction.
