eh, you can try to teach algebra to a fencepost all day long, that doesn't mean the fence post is capable of learning it.
The broker may be involved in a deal with yard storage fees, i.e. "Give it to use for brokerage and if it sells, we'll refund your winter storage fee" and when the spring comes and the boat is still unsold, the broker happily will pocket the storage fee and probably collect one for the next season as well, as Mister Irrational won't want to pay to launch, either.
There are boats that turn into yard queens and quietly rot in the bushes until someone puts a lien on them and sells them as "DIY Specials", we've all seen enough of them.
Better to steer totally clear of it, and not find out that He Who Knows Best did other clever things, like lube the engine with Castor Oil because it is less corrosive than motor oil...or some other clever thing that you just KNOW is going to jump around and bite you.
