By looking at the "inside" of a boat, you CAN determine sleeping arrangements. Give the broker a short list of the boats that you would like to see in the "cabin". None of the brokers I''ve ever worked with has forced me at gunpoint to buy a boat that they were trying to sell. Boats broker work on a similar system to real estate brokers (MLS) or Multiple Listing System. Simply put the commission is shared if the listing broker is not the selling broker. Why do most people have this paranoia about brokers? Would you buy a car or for that matter a home by looking at it through the windows? Get real! Sit down, make a list of the things you''re looking for in a boat and get a broker that will work for you, it doesn''t cost the buyer a penny. You are making the process more complicated that it needs to be. Save the whining and cheese for the celebration after the purchase!
