International Sales

One of the starting cornerstones for Nordic Yacht Works has been International yacht sales. Our knowledge of US Import and International Export requirements is second to none and serving our International clientele still remains as one of the key services we offer. Long distance buying doesn’t need to be stressful or difficult. We keep our customers constantly informed about the progress of the project and by working with us, you only have one contact to communicate with instead of a dozen. All the scheduling and coordination is taken care of and once the shipping schedule is set, we’ll inform you about the arrival schedule to your nearest sea port.

When the boat sourcing is left to Nordic Yacht Works, you will receive dozens of detailed pictures of the boat, inspection and sea trial videos are downloaded on our YouTube channel, so you can see how the boat looks, sounds and performs. Possible discrepancies are documented and repair suggestions and services will be offered. Any issues found during the survey and inspection will be used towards lowering the purchase price to assist with the repairs or improvements needed. With our over 10 years of experience, You’ll be in good hands. Below you can find a list of services, that are normally needed with any US import or International export package.
