There are times when a company or individual goes above and beyond what is expected of them. I'm pleased to say that Frank Durksen Jr. of AAA Yacht Finders International Canada falls into this category. After cruising around the Pacific more than 32,000 miles, I decided to choose a professional to sell my boat. Frank went the second mile to see that the boat was in good condition and attractive appearance. His advertising and negotiating skills were put to the test and the sale was brought to a swift conclusion. His experience and knowledge of Nordhavns is a real asset. I will be recommending him to anyone interested in either purchasing or selling a boat. Happy Cruising!
