Rick,
Just wanted to touch base. First of all, thank you very much for the bottle of champagne. That was a very nice touch, thank you for helping us secure this boat. We are very happy to have her.

Kent,
As you know, Kathy and I are very happy with our Catalina and with your service. Below is an entry you can add to your blog.
I just completed the purchase of a used Catalina 387 from Kent Little. Kent worked his tail off for us. He not only did his job as the selling broker but also filled in when the seller and listing agent seemed lethargic. My friends know me as the “picky old bastard”. I can complain about almost anything. Kent was perfect! He answered all of our questions and took care of every detail. I have absolutely no complaints, only praise for the service that Kent provided. I most highly recommend Kent Little to anyone in need of the services of a professional yacht broker.Sincerely,

To Whom it may concern,
I’ve known Kent Little for about 10 years. He has assisted me in 4 boat transactions. All have been very professionally handled from start to finish. 2 have been out of the area and were a little complicated. Not “Cookie Cutter Deals” and all still went smoothly. I would not consider buying or selling a boat without the expertise of Kent. Not only is he a great broker but a good person that I call friend.
Good Sailing,

Kent,
Thanks for all the effort and time you put into finding us the perfect boat at a price we could afford. Sorry it took us 3 years of looking. Jackie and I will always be greatful for the time you spent searching for us. Like you said, our old Lord Nelson was a great boat, but when it comes to sailing, it doesn’t compare to the Pacific Seacraft. Also, want to thank you for loaning us all your charts of the lower Caribbean. We’re on our way back to Texas and should be there mid June. Would love to have you and Liz over for dinner and drinks again. I’ll call as we get closer. Thanks again for everything.

The ad for the boat came out on Thursday, I saw the ad Friday, looked at the boat Saturday, and signed the papers that afternoon. After a quick haul and survey began one of my fondest dreams of having my own Yacht with the transaction completed in 3 days. WOW! That was FAST! With his knowledge and support this was a very quick and pleasurable experience.
Thanks Again and C-U-Later

Kent helped my wife and me with a deal that I wouldn’t have thought could be done. We traded our boat for another used boat, which was in turn traded for another. Getting everyone involved in the transaction to understand what was going on and shepherd it through to completion required patience and knowledge, both traits that Kent has in ample supply. The deal went through with nary a bump, and I couldn’t be happier.

A friend recommended that I talk to Kent about buying a sail boat several years ago after the Harvest Moon Regatta. After looking at countless boats over the last several years he helped me get into the perfect boat and my wife and I are very proud owners.
Kent has taken great care of me from financing to after sale service and I have already recommended them to several people.
Thanks Kent for helping make my sailing dreams come true, your patience and professionalism was very much appreciated during the whole buying and commisioning process.

My wife and I had been discussing the sale of our 1999 Catalina 320 due to possible job relocations later this year. Since we purchased the boat from Kent Little, and were happy with that transaction, we felt he would be the right person to sell the boat for us. Based on a discussion with Kent during the 2009 Reliant Center boat show about the market for vessels such as ours, we listed the boat a couple of weeks later. When we signed the listing agreement, we had an expectation that we would continue sailing her for another few months until a buyer was found. Ultimately, that was not the case as Kent located a buyer and provided a written offer a week later.
During the process of offer and acceptance, Kent was realistic about what we could expect regarding the negotiation and closing process, and his assessment of the situation proved to be spot on. In addition, the staff at Kent was very helpful in explaining the process of closing and funds transfer. In the end, we were extremely satisfied with Kent’s efforts, and our only disappointment was that the transaction occurred so quickly, we did not even have time for a farewell sail before turning her over to the new owners. When the time comes for us to purchase our next sailing vessel, we will definitely call on Kent Little.”
Regards,

Kent helped us buy Heatwave our Beneteau 42s7 new in 1997. He was very patient with us to be sure that we got the boat that was right for us. Great boat.
As we moved on, he sold that boat and helped us buy 3 more (one lost in Ike, still have the other 2). On each deal Kent has found a way to make or save money for us in the negotiation process but, even more importantly, he has been my friend and consultant every step of the way. I trust his judgement and advice completely. He’s my guy!
Thank you Kent for all you have done and will do going foward!!!!

Kent,
I just thought I would drop you a line and tell you how much Carmen and I enjoy sailing “C Charmer”. Owning and sailing the C&C 121 has been a great experience for us.
