We are one step closer to a Meridian...with Dan Greenwood's exceptional marketing and sales skills we received and accepted an outstanding offer on our boat. A very lucky family in the Seattle area will be enjoying a fine example of a Mainship 390.
We got top dollar and in only 3 weeks...way to go Dan! All that is left is the Survey lift this weekend and then I will be boatless...Dan is already looking at boats for me. I still like the 411, but now with my boat sold I know how much I got to play with, so we'll see what we end up with...maybe a 490.
Dan is more than just a broker, he takes real pride in helping boaters find the right boat for them, and when selling he gets the boats listed in all the right places. Dan's work doesn't finish after a deal is complete. He follows up to make sure you are truly happy and if there are problems he will do what ever he can to help make things right. I now consider Dan a good friend and I would highly recommend his services to anyone, especially in the PNW.

I met Dan Greenwood and Shelley Herron through the Canadian Power & Sail Squadrons, now known as CanBoat, where they both generously volunteered their time and shared their knowledge with the boating community. Over the years, I watched Dan successfully help many people buy and sell boats, so when it came time for us to purchase another boat, naturally I called Greenwood Yacht Services.
Throughout the process, Dan’s and Shelley’s knowledge, experience, and advice were exceptional. They helped us find the perfect boat, although it was not the first boat we pursued. We walked away from our first offer because of concerning engine oil analysis results, and we lost out on another boat where we were the backup offer but the first offer closed. Through it all, Dan and Shelley remained patient, supportive, and committed to helping us find the right boat at the right price. In the end, the third time truly was the charm.
What sets them apart is how thorough and dedicated they are. Before hiring professional surveyors and mechanics, Dan personally made trips to inspect each boat himself to ensure no detail was overlooked and that it was worth making an offer on. Once the surveys and mechanical inspections were complete, they were instrumental in negotiating on our behalf and ensuring we received a fair deal. We were extremely grateful to have them in our corner throughout the process.
We live in the Lower Mainland, and our boat purchase was completed in Washington state. Dan and Shelley coordinated everything, from the deal and sea trial, to the mechanic who was hired to do some work before leaving, to the transfer of funds, and recommendations on importing it to Canada. They even hired a ground transportation company to drive us and our dogs for the final trip to take delivery of the boat, so we didn’t need to return to pick up a left-behind vehicle.
Absolutely top notch service in every way, and they ensured the entire experience went smoothly. Dan and Shelley truly go the extra mile for their clients. They continue to check in even after the sale is complete to make sure everything is going well. Their passion for boating is obvious, and their relationship with clients does not end when the paperwork is signed, their clients become friends. I highly recommend Greenwood Yacht Services to anyone buying or selling a boat in southern British Columbia or beyond. They are professional, knowledgeable, thorough, trustworthy, and genuinely care about the people they work with.

Took delivery of a Meridian 368 2005 only 100 hours on engines and 27 hours on genset last Friday. It's being prepared for shipment to Washington State. It is currently in Alameda, CA. Dan Greenwood of Greenwood Yachts negotiated a fantastic price and even after he closed the sale he has attended to every detail related to the transport of the boat, etc. I would not buy any motor yacht without his help.
I highly highly recommend Dan, he has tremendous patience with even the most difficult clients (ummm...me).

If you are looking for a 38, call Daniel Greenwood. He worked for Olympic for years and knows Bayliners inside and out. He sold our 28 Bayliner in a week for what we were asking and also found us our current boat, a 38 Bayliner.
On my recommendation, he has sold and/our found a lot of boats for our friends.

+1 for Dan Greenwood. I looked at a boat he was brokering 3.5 years ago when we bought our boat. I didn't buy the boat from Dan but that was just because we chose the other boat for preference related reasons.
Despite this, Dan was great to deal with and is extremely knowledgeable. I would not hesitate to deal with him again.
~Not a Customer, but still happy :)
