Does this win a prize for calmest ferry crossing of the English Channel? We even saw dolphins 🐬 🐬🐬 on three different occasions from our cabin window on Saturday!

This image is connected to that story. I captured this photograph mid-Atlantic after a day of quite literally flat calm. Like a mirror! So beautiful to be there in that place at that time in those conditions and on such a special yacht.

Dreaming of buying your first boat?

- Start with a short list of wants. It will evolve.
- Define your budget. A rough idea at first.
- Think about where you might keep your boat.
- View some to see what you get for your money.
- Evolve your wants list and narrow your search.
- Take the plunge...but only when you are ready.

Remember, as leadership expert Robin Sharma once said...."Clarity precedes success"! If you can plan ahead and give structure to your boat search you will find the best boat for you and your family.

Do you need guidance right now? During the Southampton International Boat Show, I offered my first 15 phone consultations for FREE and I now have only 4 slots left. Offer ends at 6pm on 25th Sept. A call will help you understand how to move on to the next stage with confidence!

Let me know how I can help you. I look forward to chatting with you soon!

Welcome! My name is James Hutchinson and I am The Boat Buyer's Guide.

I give first-time boat buyers the knowledge and key information they need to find their dream boat, and successfully and confidently navigate the purchase process.

What I have found is that first-time buyers often want to enjoy quality time on the water with their family and friends but they don't know where to start. They find searching for and purchasing a boat overwhelming, stressful and time-consuming. They would love a one-stop shop for all the information required to make key decisions and they struggle to find truly impartial advice.

With my complete roadmap to ownership, I help them to save money, win their time back and actively enjoy the adventure of buying and using their first boat, knowing that they have somebody they trust holding their hand and guiding them every step of the way.

My practical experience during over 40 years on the water and 25 years working directly with thousands of buyers and sellers has put me in a unique position where I am able to offer my clients a complete mentoring service.

Whatever stage you are at, I can help you avoid costly mistakes and can offer guidance and support when you need it most.

Follow my page for more insights over the coming weeks and months.

Thank you!
