I cant say enough great things about these guys. Kenny and his team recently sold my boat and made the whole process so easy. They took care of everything, even picking up the boat and taking care of cleaning and repairs. I highly recommend American Boat Brokers for buying or selling!!

We worked with Nick on buying our boat we bought from American boat brokers and he was absolutely wonderful. He communicated great with my husband on getting everything set up on coming to look at the boat and the financing done. It was a very fast experience. We drove three and a half hours to look at this boat and they had all the paperwork ready to go when we arrived and if everything went good on the test drive We would be all ready to go. The boat tested out exactly what it was supposed to. They sold us the boat we had been looking for, for a great price. Very happy with our experience so far with The communication they have with their customers.

Ryan, Jackson and Tommy were absolutely amazing. From start to finish they worked hard to get us our perfect boat. For first time boat owners the process was amazingly smooth thanks to these guys. If you buy a boat... this is THE PLACE TO GO! Great price, great quality and we couldn’t be happier!

Kenny set us up in selling our 2017 Yamaha Jet Boat. They came to my house, drove the boat to a nearby park with a boat lift and took care of it from there. Signed some paperwork, they list it for you, and get it sold. Didnt get it in the market until late summer, which was my bad, but they did a great job! Thanks Kenny and team.

I was extremely impressed with Kenny Hutchinson’s professionalism from the start. I have never sold a boat before. He walked me through every step and the process went exactly as he said it would. It was seamless. The best part… Kenny sold my boat at a great price in 30 days!!! I HIGHLY recommend selling (or buying) with Kenny and his team at American Boat Brokers!

Kenny and the Folks at American Boat Brokers promised and delivered. I consigned my boat to them as I didn’t want to have to deal with the hassle of no shows and low ball offers and I left my boat in the capable hands of Kenny. He promised to get it sold quick and he did. He promised to get me the price that we agreed to and he did. He promised no hassles and I had none. Just one phone call, a couple of texts for some documents and that was it. I would highly recommend Kenny if you want to get your boat sold quickly and with no hassle.

Nick Franklin was very good. Extremely professional, thorough, very prompt responses to my questions. I was a new boat owner and had a lot of new guy questions. Nick was patient and walked me thru the buying process. He delivered what was promised and even arranged transport for my boat to my home landing. It was extremely easy to buy from this company. Id do it again without question.

Kenny really takes the hassle out of selling your boat. I tried selling and got bombarded with hassles and people wanting you to hold for a while. Kenny is just a good guy and not a typical sales person. He seems very genuine and likes what he does. They took care of any repairs and at a good cost. I have bought another boat but when I sale, it will be here. The sales go very quick. ABB is a good company.

WOW! I have been working with Kenny Hutchinson on selling my boat and this was one of the easiest and most professional experiences I have had. Right from the start, Kenny worked with me every step of the way. I also had a lot of questions as this was the first time I have sold a boat and Kenny responded quickly and was patient the whole time. Utilizing Kenny and American Boat Brokers took the hassle off of me trying to show it myself and it sold in less than a week. If you want to sell your boat, take it to Kenny (or if you live a distance like I do, you can have the option of having it picked up which saved me a lot of time). With Kenny you will not be disappointed.

Review №22

I have purchased many boats before. This was one of the best experiences I have had. Not only were the selections of boats abundant, but the quality was also impressive. Ryan and his team went out of their way to accommodate me with a water trial of the boat, but also stepped up with fixing a few things, and arranging for finance. The finance team had the best rates and terms and had everything completed in a matter of days. From start to finish it was great. In tough times like we have now, it is a pleasure to have the attention to detail and superior customer service that the guys at American Boat Brokers give to each of their customers. Look forward to the next upgrade in a few years. You should really look to open a similar facility here at Lake Norman. We need businesses like ABB up here. Thank you, BK

We recently bought our first boat from American Boat Brokers and couldn’t have asked for a better experience.

5 Star shoutout to Kenny Hutchison with American Boat Brokers. He promised me theyd have my boat sold in a few weeks and delivered on that promise.

I contacted Kenny about selling my center console and he explained the whole process involved. He was upfront, direct, honest and did his best to keep my cost down while trying to maximize the selling price based on the market. The boat was sold quickly and I received my funds shortly afterwards. While, there is a substantial cost involved using a broker, I was saved the hassle of dealing with potential buyers and spending my time going back and forth to the lake for showings, etc.... Worth the commission cost for sure. Kenny took care of every detail. Very professional operation.

We contacted American Boat Brokers looking for a fishing pontoon boat. We worked with Nick over the phone. He found the style of boat we wanted within a day. He worked hard to get the boat ready for us as soon as possible. He kept us updated on the status of the boat through text and phone calls. In roughly a week, we bought our boat. Nick was very respectful and friendly. I highly recommend buying a boat from them.

Kenny definitely did a fantastic job helping get me set up and doing the leg work on both my 2001 Sea Ray and my 2008 Bayliner. I highly recommend him and his team for any boat transactions that you may want to do. his team was able to sell the Sea Ray (already cashed the check) in a couple days and the Bayliner within the week. Also, they cleaned both boats and got everything ready--- it was very pleasant and and easy experience.

Nicole was great to work with with on our boat purchase. Larry was also great, although I dealt primarily with Nicole. She was enthusiastic, helpful, and even answered several email questions on her day off. She helped with setting up independent boat survey. I held my breath awaiting delivery of the biggest purchase I had ever bought sight unseen. Thankfully, it was every bit as nice as Nicole promised. Love my Regal 2300.

I tried selling my boat through other avenues and had to deal with all of the telemarketers, scammers, tire kickers, etc. I was tired of wasting so much of my time and energy so, I gave Kenny H. at call at American Boat Brokers and I am glad that I did. He was professional, certainly knows the business and he does exactly what he said he is going to do! Not many people do that anymore today. I successfully consigned and sold my boat through Kenny and American Boat Brokers and must admit it was very smooth, seamless and quick. He literally handled everything from the initial paperwork all the way through the Certified Bill of Sale. I am extremely satisfied with their service and professionalism and will recommend them to anyone wanting to sell or purchase a boat! Top notch group of folks!

I successfully consigned and sold my boat through American Boat Brokers. It was an extremely easy process which completely took me out of the picture. They fixed any issues for me, stored the boat until it was sold and handled negotiations, payoff with the bank and all of the paper work. It was as if they bought it from me themselves. Extremely satisfied!

We recently purchased our first boat after looking for nearly a year. We have visited most every boat broker/dealer in north Georgia and America Boat Brokers are first class.

We couldn’t be more pleased with the experience we had with Larry and Nicole at American Boat Brokers. They went above and beyond to make our buying experience a good one. I drove nearly 6 hours from Virginia to view and test the boat I wanted. Even though it was the weekend and was pouring the rain, Larry still made the boat available for viewing and provided a rain suit for us to take it out on the lake for a test. I am happy to recommend American Boat Brokers to help you find the boat you are looking for. They are knowledgeable, respectful and bend over backwards to make sure you are satisfied with your boat.

We purchased a 2013 Crest tri-toon that not only looked nice but ran well when we tested it. When we got it back to our lake (Allatoona) it didn’t run properly. We called ABB and informed them that it wasn’t running properly. They thought it was bad gas; long story short, it wasn’t. We took the boat back and found out it was a bad fuel pump. Ryan Unterreiner our sales person took it back and got priority for us. They got the boat in and replaced the fuel pump within two days of receiving it. They were totally supportive and fixed the boat and offered to deliver it. Thank you for taking a potential disaster and making our new fun come true.

We needed to sell our boat. We had discussions with Marine Max but did not feel we were making any progress. We were referred to American Boat Brokers by the detail shop.

Our sales person, Chuck, was with another customer off-site, which we expected, and the owner actually helped us.

They got us the type boat we were looking for, in the condition we wanted, at the price we wanted to pay. I recommend this company for your boating needs.

I rarely post reviews on the web for any purpose, however, my experience with American Boat Brokers was nothing short of fantastic. I am a Michigan resident with many years of boating experience and know what to look for in a well maintained, quality boat.

American Boat Brokers answered my concerns and addressed several issues which made the buying experience very comfortable even though I lived half way across the country. Thanks Chuck!!

Review №97

We do not live local to ABB in Georgia. I had conversations with Kenny H for weeks prior to being able to take the day voyage to get the Regal boat. When he described like-new, Kenny absolutely delivered in every way. While we had a small hiccup on the test run, we ended up going home empty handed that day, not a fun ride home. In most cases that would be deal over but through Kennys effort and doing what he said, we made the second trip. He never gave up and a week later we made that second voyage to bring the boat home. The boat is amazing, like new, and would of never happened if Kenny didnt work so hard. He also had assistance from Andrew on both our trips who was amazing as well. We have been in touch even after the purchase and would recommend Kenny H and Andrew to anyone no matter where they live. Great job guys!

Kenny and the team at ABB sold my boat in a week’s time at a price previously agreed-upon. If you are “real” with your value, Along with their insight on prepping your boat, ABB has a great location that creates more personal views than you would normally get listing by yourself. I would highly recommend.
