About cruisingboats.com
At CruisingBoats.com, our foundation is built on deep boating experience, we are ‘Born for Adventure’ and our boats that we list are ‘Built to Cruise’.
Our team is made up of sailors, cruisers, and industry professionals who live and breathe life on the water. We understand the realities of cruising — from comfort and safety to build quality, systems, and long-term ownership.
With extensive experience across a wide range of cruising boats and performance-cruising yachts — including coastal cruisers, motorboats, bluewater passagemakers, and multihulls — we know what makes a boat reliable, seaworthy, and enjoyable to own. That insight allows us to guide buyers with confidence and represent sellers with integrity.
