Broom is a company with a rich history and known for its standards and quality, so it is a good choice of brand when deciding on buying a used boat. Broom also offers boat serving and repairs; meaning if you do run into any troubles or want anything updated can you go directly back to the company who produced it originally.

There are six main places that sell used Broom boats; four in the UK, Bray Marine sales (Berkshire), Transworld Yacht Sailing (Hampshire), Newark Marina (Nottinghamshire) and the Norfolk Yacht Agency and two outside the UK, De Vaart Yachting (Netherlands) and Portumna Marine (Ireland). The Newark Marina in Nottinghamshire has one of the largest on site collections of used boats and currently has eleven used Broom boats for sale. They also specialise in selling and fitting Volvo penta engines, so if you are looking for the combination of Broom boats and Volvo penta engines this is the right place for you. Obviously where you buy your used boat from will depend upon your location.  But it may be worth noting that the Norfolk yacht agency is very close to where Brooms is based and their boatyard is located, in the heart of the Norfolk boards. The Norfolk yacht agency has a wide range of used boats and offers part exchange on all boats they sell. They also sell Broom boats new, so are very familiar with the company and their products. Not only do they broker boats but they also include their own used stock which is available with warranty, this is something worth having when buying a used boat.

Of course how many used Broom boats they have at any given time it bound to vary, however to give you a general idea of what you can find there, at this moment in time they have six Broom boats for sale out of about ninety-five used boats for sale (different Broom models, all from different years from 1968 to 1996). So if you are looking for something classic or slightly more modern they have a range where you can hopefully find a used Broom boat to suit your style. Having the other brands of used boat around will give you good comparisons, so you can have a concept of what else there is on offer and that you are getting is right for you.
