“We had a fantastic experience buying our boat from Lee. From start to finish, he was friendly, professional, and honest, making the whole process smooth and stress-free. He went above and beyond by organising quotes for the upgrades and work we wanted done, which was a huge help since we live four hours away. Nothing was too much trouble, and he kept us informed every step of the way. We're absolutely thrilled with the boat and couldn't be happier with our purchase. We highly recommend Lee to anyone looking to buy a boat. Thanks again, Lee, for making the whole experience so easy! Thanks Darren and Kristy”
“Lee was so wonderful & really went the extra mile for us. He is very experienced and had lots of tips where we could save some money, which was handy given it was our first boat. His communication was also great, and he was always available to answer our questions making the purchase an easy process.”
Thankyou Tanya for your review. It is much appreciated.
“We recently used Lee’s services to sell our boat, and we couldn’t be happier with the result. From the beginning, he took the time to understand our situation and then supported us throughout the entire process. Because our circumstances were far from straightforward, we really appreciated his guidance and reassurance at every stage. Lee is transparent, knowledgeable, and consistently focused on achieving the best outcome for the seller. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking to sell a boat.”

“We recently purchased our boat from Lee @ Melbourne Boat Sales.We have dealt with a lot of good and bad brokers in the past but we were extremely lucky finding Lee. He picked us up from his office and took us to inspect the boat, when we said we were happy to purchase it we left and went back to NSW and Lee did the rest on our behalf..He went above and beyond with all the steps, from organising the lift and survey, sea trials, insurance and the sale.As we were in NSW at the time Lee did all the organising for us and kept constantly in touch and updating us where he was at.He also picked us up in town when we arrived in Melbourne and took us to our boat. We highly recommend Lee if you are looking to buy or sell a boat. He is always contactable by phone and ready to help. Thanks David and Jenny”

“I purchased a Sunseeker 46 foot boat of Lee from Melbourne Boat Sales. Great experience, Great bloke!! Nothing has been to much trouble, if I needed to ask a question about the boat he was more than willing to come down and see me at the marina or guide me via the phone. Highly recommend buying a boat through Lee and his team. Thanks again Lee. Steve Parker”
Thank you Steve. The feedback is greatly appreciated.
Deen Maar (the island and adjacent coastal region off south‑west Victoria) is a small but significant offshore island and coastal protected area offering dramatic cliffs, important seabird and seal habitat, cultural values for Gunditjmara and Eastern Maar Traditional Owners, and a clear contrast between exposed Bass Strait seascape and the comparatively sheltered waters inside the Moyne/Port Fairy approaches. From the water it is best treated as an ecological and cultural landmark rather than a place for casual landings: recreational boating activity is concentrated at Port Fairy, Killarney, Y
