Working with Steve was a pleasure. His knowledge, professionalism and clear understanding of the boating industry helped me sell my boat in a few months when the average sale was much longer, that in addition the Caribbean was in the hurricane season when boats sit and wait to be sold 6 months later. By far the best company to list your boat with. If you talk to Steve you’ll understand.
Thank you for trusting me with your business, it was a great pleasure to work with you.

When I bought my boat, Steve @ VIYB was the broker on the other side of the table. When I sold it, I hired him to be my broker. When a problem arose, he jumped in, said, "I've got this," and took care of it. If you're looking for a broker who is thoughtful, experienced, and effective, Steve is the best of the best.
Pleasure working with you Eric, and thank you for trusting me with your business.

Talk about "going the extra mile" I bought a boat unseen, just on the recommendation from this company. Couldn't be happier, their aftersales service is amazing. I highly recommend this company just ask for Andrew or Steve. You won't be disappointed.
Thank you for trusting us with your business, it was our pleasure to help you.

I worked with Christiaan on purchasing a catamaran. He worked with me for months and months. He went above and beyond from traveling to places, To scheduling surveys, to making sure surveys were executed properly. He was always available for any questions that arose. He was honest when a boat wasn’t what we were looking for. He is not a typical broker as most are just looking for a sale. He cares about the person and what you are getting. He is hands down the best broker you could ever ask for. And in turn I also gained a friendship with he and his wonderful wife Rebecca. Thanks for everything
Thank you Crystal! This is why we love what we do. Thank you for trusting us to help you.

We hired Christiaan Liebenberg to help us deliver our 2018 Lagoon 450F (SV Moxie) from St John USVI to St Augustine FL. Christiaan and his wife, Rebecca, we’re awesome in all respects. He is so easygoing and his sailing knowledge is unparalleled. He is an experienced Captain and they created a very relaxed atmosphere on Moxie. As a retired US Marine, I don’t say this lightly, but I trust Christiaan with my life. If you need a great Captain, look no further.
From Christiaan
"Thank you Jim and Matt. We have made such an amazing connection and I look forward to sailing with you guys again and sharing the love of catamarans good food and the ocean."

We Bought our 57' catamaran through Steve Varrow in 2021. Steve acted as broker on both sides of the transaction and did a wonderful job for all parties. Steve has also repeatedly gone above and beyond what I would have expected from any broker with excellent after purchase support. I would highly recommend him and will certainly seek him out if we ever decide to sell our yacht.
Thank you for your review, it was a great pleasure to work with you.

Steve had a good personality and easy to work with. He has good knowledge of the boat and the business. I would work with him anytime and invite him to sail with us.

Cannot say enough about Steve Varrow and the experience of purchasing a boat with him involved. I was looking for a catamaran and trying to muddle my way through the maze and confusion of first time boat buyer.
Best thing ever happened is I ran into Steve in the Virgin Islands while boat shopping. Found the boat I wanted and Steve went to work..!! His knowledge and expertise are truly over the top, this guy is not just a “yacht broker” he is truly a sailor, captain and go to guy for anything marine. This is someone you want working for you.
His honesty and sincerity added immensely to the experience. Because Steve just presented the facts and let the process look after itself. No pushy tactics or “we will worry about that later” attitude. Through all the hurdles and confusion it was great to have him onside to take a calm approach to getting through it all. If he didn’t have the answer at his fingertips he said that, and found someone who did have the answer in short order.
His assistance before, during and yes even after the sale is fantastic to say the least. As I said not your average salesman / broker this man is an asset when it comes to boat sales.
5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️➕ , Kudos and a Heartfelt You to Steve Varrow
The guy I’d recommend to help you ..!!!
Thank you for the review, I am happy that I could help you buy your catamaran and be APOTA!

I would highly recommend Steve when considering buying or selling a yacht. I used him to purchase a catamaran in Guatemala. Steve went out of his way to make sure the sale happened, which was at times quite challenging. Steve has a wealth of knowledge, not just in brokering but also in all ascpets of boat ownership. His customer service and after sale help made my journey from Guatemala back to Grenada that much easier. Having someone with his level of knowledge able to assist is invaluable. Professional, personal and positive customer service Is what you can expect from Steve and Virgin Island Yacht Broker.
Thank you for the review it was a great pleasure to work with you.

I recently purchased a yacht through Steve Varrow and it was a great experience. Not only did Steve guide us through every step of the purchase process but his after purchase support has been phenomenal. Purchasing a yacht is invariably a stressful endeavor. Steve made it so smooth and my family now consider him a friend.
Thanks Ben, it was a great pleasure working with you on the purchase of Adastra, I am so happy that she has gone to a great family who will love her and look after her, happy Xmas

Our experience was great. From listing to selling went smooth and easy. The high point was the presence during the survey and sea trial which was exceptional.
Thank you Brian it was great working with you!

I hired Captain Steve Varrow as an owner assist on delivery of my Leopard 39 PC from St Thomas, USVI to Georgetown, Bahamas. The primary reason for hiring Steve was his recent experience and knowledge about current COVID protocol for entering Puerto Rico, Dominican Republic and the Bahamas. In addition, he had numerous key contacts in ports of call along the way. Because of his experience in this part of the world, he provided good advice on routing as well as potential contingencies for the trip.
My experience with Steve was very positive. He is an extremely confident and competent captain. He is level headed and conscientious with a focus on safety. In addition, he is a good fisherman and cook! Overall, it was a pleasure to have him aboard. I would most definitely hire him again.
