Sell your boat with Rugby Boats
Rugby Boats has earned a reputation for honesty, integrity and care for the customer. Our core values are People Matter, Integrity, Honesty and Customer Satisfaction.
We sell narrowboats which are between mid to high end of the market. We do not sell ‘projects’, and the boats that we sell are ready to go. We are known for this, and take pride in this, and have an extensive list of subscribers to our website who are actively in the market looking for boats. Every time a new listing is put onto the site, each subscriber receives an alert email. Each boat is listed on Apollo Duck and also a video walkthrough placed on our well subscribed Youtube channel.
The feedback we get on our website is that it is market leading, and, generally speaking (there are of course exceptions), turnover of boats is rapid as a result.
