We were referred to Dan through another broker. He took over our sale in a very smooth and professional manner. He never gets his feathers ruffled and handled all surveys and the haul out flawlessly. He was always quick to respond if we had questions or concerns and settle us back down if we got a bit more excited than needed. It was a big move for us as we had sold our home and were buying this boat to live on. So emotions ran a little high at times. We would recommend Dan to anyone buying or selling a boat. Dan knows his stuff when it comes to anything boats. Thanks so much Dan for all of your help and guidance...we look forward to a friendship well into the future!
We recently had the pleasure of working with Dan Snope at Sound Yacht Sales on a purchase of a 31 Tiara in Gig Harbor. This could of been a complicated purchase as we are from Southern California. But Dan was great setting up a surveyor, engine mechanic and haul out all on the same day with short notice. Dan is easy going and knows how to get things done. He also personally supervised the preparation and loading for long distance transport with a great and reputable company. Our new boat arrived well protected and in great shape. We highly recommend Dan as THE broker to work with in the Puget Sound area.

Dan saved us over $50,000!!!! My wife Kerri and I were referred to Dan from Kevin & Lori Jenkin's. Kevin and Lori are long time friends who recently purchased an express cruiser through Dan for $1,000's below market value. We were looking for 40-50 foot boats and approached Dan about assisting us (the boat we found was out of the area). Not only was he able to negotiate a price that was over $50,000 less than the appraised value (per survey). He handled all the details and we had a "seamless" delivery! We are members of the Tacoma Yacht Club and have owned several boats over the years ( and have dealt with many brokers). Dan Snope is absolutely the BEST Broker in the Gig Harbor area. If you are looking to work with someone who is 100% honest, an incredible negotiator and can save you $1,000's on your purchase, has a 100 ton Captains License and knows boats inside and out. Dan's the Man!!!! THANKS DAN !!!!

I had been researching Trawlers thinking that when I retire I would like to do some exploring and traveling for a few years on the water. I first contacted Dan looking to find out what availability there was for moorage in the Gig Harbor Area and what the costs would be. We got started talking about Trawlers and I started asking questions and I had a lot of them. In Talking with Dan over several weeks I soon realized that his knowledge and experience was was going to be invaluable to me in finding and acquiring the right boat for what I wanted to do. I am so very glad that I stumbled into Dan. He helped to navigate me though strange and unknown waters to find and acquire a very exceptional boat. I would highly recommend that if your are looking to purchase or sell a boat that you contact Dan.
