I am one to rarely write reviews, but this firm really represented me in the best way and was persistent about my wants and needs with the purchase of my dream boat. Austin consistently kept in touch with me over the months to find the exact yacht I was looking for. He follows through with all of your wishes and assures a customer that he will actually stand by your side throughout the process. Many broke that I’ve spoken to in the past really wanted the sale, but didn’t want to put in the work. He did an extraordinary job, along with Mark, his superior at 50 North. I would definitely use them over and over and I have zero regrets with our purchase.
Incredible Experience! We worked with Austin B. and we expected the average sales experience. This was our first boat buying experience and as a result we had a ton of questions. Austin upheld his fiduciary duty to not only us (the buyers) but the seller as well. At no point in time did I feel this was an ordinary transaction. While maintaining a professional relationship it felt like I was communicating with a friend. Austin was responsive in his communication and honest when he didn't have an answer readily available. He was excellent in managing and scheduling required tests along with providing all information that was required of me. Flexible, understanding and most importantly he cared about our wants and needs. Throughout my vessel buying process I spoke to a TON of different people, be it individual sellers or other folks representing companies. This was by far an incredible experience and more than I could have even hoped for.
Austin is an excellent broker at 50 North. He did an excellent job selling my 1989 Skipjack boat. I'm grateful for his dedication, expertise, knowledge, and hard work . He made the process seamless and professional and made selling my boat so easy in 3 months! I'm very happy with the final result. Thank you so much.
50 North does a fantastic job for its customers. Austin is a standout broker who is incredibly responsive, intelligent, and strategic. He is backed by a team that knows just about everyone in the area and can execute just about any request one could need.
Our experience with 50 North has been stellar. The whole team goes above and beyond every step of the way. We sold and bought at the same time which is quite a lot to juggle. Tim Tweed, Mark and Lianne as a team made it a flawless transition. The 50 North team is experienced, patient, professional, and friendly. We will definitely work with them again in the future and can't recommend them highly enough.

Match the boat to your waters
Pontoons and deck boats suit calm lakes. Deep-V hulls handle chop on larger lakes and coastal water. Center consoles are versatile for fishing. Ask 50 North Yacht Sales, Service & Management which models suit the waterways near San Diego, California.
Inspect the hull carefully
Look for stress cracks, blistering, or repairs on fiberglass hulls. Check the transom for soft spots by pressing firmly — a solid transom feels rigid. Osmotic blistering costs thousands to repair.

Request a sea trial
Test the boat on the water before buying. Run it at full throttle. Listen for unusual noises. Check that the throttle and steering respond smoothly. Reputable dealers like 50 North Yacht Sales, Service & Management will accommodate this request.
