With DYC as our boat broker we purchased a 2008 60 foot Searay Sundancer which needed inspections, regular maintenance, upgrades, work in many areas, installations for safety due to my MS and some personal wishes. You did repairs, upgrades, teak work, dingy work, window work, bilge work, as well as training us on this new boat. Even though Richard is a lifelong boater you spent hours training in all types of weather to learn these engines, this boat’s technology, review of the various systems, practice using the boat and answering our questions on the various systems. Jim did everything with such a positive and professional expertise and we highly recommend him for your boating needs.

Stevensville, MD:  Jimmy helped us buy our first boat. He was very patient and helped us through every phase. His knowledge helped us narrow our search, navigate the purchase process and ensure we had all the right contacts to service our boat.  Thanks to Jimmy, we are thoroughly enjoying boating on the bay!

Crownsville, MD:  Owning a boat can be an overwhelming task. But it doesn’t have to be.  When we were in the market for a new boat, Jim worked closely with us to identify the best boat for our family and then locating and negotiating the best deal possible. But it didn’t end there. He helped us move the boat north from Florida to the Chesapeake Bay and served as captain on our boat on many occasions. But much more than that Jim was crucial to the maintenance and upkeep of the boat. He scheduled the regular maintenance for us as well as any repairs required. When we finally sold the boat, Jim was there every step of the way to get us the best price and make the process seamless. He made boating easy.

Baltimore, MD:  My wife and I listed our 60’ Sundancer with Jim, and he sold it for us within 1 month!  He then was our broker on our boat we bought in Florida.  Both transactions went flawlessly!  Jim’s knowledge of boats and his professionalism is top notch! We will continue to use Jim and his company, Dean Yacht Company for all of our future boat transactions!

Baltimore, MD:  If you’re looking for kind, honest and hard working, you’ll find it in Jim Dean. His years of experience are evident. Every question you have is answered, sometimes before you are even able to ask it. Jim was helpful during our boat search, throughout our closing and months later when Spring finally came and we were able to get our boat in the water. As new boaters, we needed loads of help and reassurance. We got it and more. Thank you!

Arnold, MD:  We recently purchased a 2020 Beneteau Antares 27 from Captain Jim Dean.  Because of his experience, Jim was able to provide us with an exceptional experience buying a new boat. He spent a lot of time with us, ensuring we understood everything about our prospective boat. He answered all questions honestly and merely shared his thoughts about value and performance and did not try to persuade us on any particular option or feature.  Throughout the buying process and continuing post sale, he truly went above and beyond in making sure everything was handled and that we were completely at ease with everything. Jim will be “our guy” for years to come!
