TESTIMONIALS
"IF ANYONE IS LOOKING FOR THE BEST BOAT BROKER AROUND YOU SHOULD GIVE MATTHEW STROPES... A CALL OR MESSAGE!The guy will literally stop at nothing to help you out! Can’t tell you how many lame or lazy boat brokers I’ve contacted over the years!"
- Zach Paul on Matthew Stropes
"I worked with Matthew on the sale of my 2018 Sunseeker. He kept me informed every step of the way and sold my boat for more than the asking price. He was professional, articulate and made the sale a smoothe one. I would recommend Matthew to anyone looking to buy or sell their boat."
- J. Rich on Matthew Stropes
