AdamSea for Shippers



AdamSea attracts new boat manufacturers and used boat/yacht sellers and buyers in one marketplace requiring the same service: shipment. By registering with AdamSea and becoming a partner, you gain access to shipping opportunities to destinations all over the world. Every time a sale is made through AdamSea, all shippers who are registered with AdamSea will receive an email giving them the opportunity to submit a shipping quote to the buyer.

AdamSea connects worldwide boat sellers, new and used, to buyers all over the world. Used boats or yachts will be shipped from the seller’s location while new boats and yachts will be shipped from the manufacturer’s place of business. Shipping destinations are located all over the world and include destinations in the Middle East, Asia, Australia, Africa, Europe, and many more.

As shipping is an integral piece of the AdamSea sales process, shippers are not only important but absolutely necessary. Every single sale which is made through AdamSea, whether new or used, requires a request for shipment quotes. The process for you as a shipper begins when the buyer has reached the Shipment section of their transaction. The buyer must fill out a Shipment Request form, after which the AdamSea sales engine sends email notifications to affiliated shipment companies, requesting a quote to be sent directly to the buyer’s email address. You will then click on the link you are sent to submit a quote to the buyer through your AdamSea account. When you click the link, the dashboard you are taken to will contain the origin and destination locations, boat information and other data in order to provide a quote. You must provide your quote within 24 hours of receiving the email. The buyer can view your quote in their member account.

By working with AdamSea as a shipper, you receive benefits for you and your company such as year round word, leads to ship vessels all over the world, access to new markets, and advertising services on AdamSea.com only to name a few. Since AdamSea only works as a lead generator for your shipping services, you are responsible for the transactions between you and the buyers. This means there is no percentage of your fee which needs to go to AdamSea. In return, AdamSea asks that you abide by their terms of service and offer excellent customer service to their customers buying boats through them.

Become a Surveyor with AdamSea


AdamSea recommends that each used boat purchased is surveyed before completing the purchase. Because of this, surveyors who register with AdamSea benefit from exclusive opportunities to survey a large variety of boats and yachts before they are shipped to destinations all over the world.

Your responsibilities as a surveyor begin after the buyer and seller have agreed on a price for the vessel. The buyer will then select Payment and be advised to have the vessel surveyed. The buyer is responsible for the cost of the survey. That cost will be transferred into a holding account which guarantees payments when the survey and inspection is done, and all reports, video and pictures are uploaded.

Once the buyer has requested for their boat to be surveyed, the closest surveyor will be sent a message from AdamSea to request their certification for the boat. If you are the closest surveyor, you will receive the boat description and the boat’s location. Once you acknowledge receipt of the request, you have 3 days to complete the certification process and complete and upload the finished report.

If you are interested in becoming an AdamSea survey partner, start by visiting www.adamsea.com. Then go to Register and select “Boat Surveyor.” You can then fill out the required information online. Once you click register you will then receive an agreement ID which will allow you to generate your user name and password.

When you are in the system as a surveyor, your company will begin to receive survey and inspection tasks via email notification. This notification will contain a link which brings you right to your Boat Surveyor account dashboard. Your account will contain:

  • Accurate yacht location
  • Customized AdamSea standard survey report (download from dashboard)
  • Payment notification
  • Yacht specifications

You must use the AdamSea standard report of certification/survey to survey the vessel.

A surveyor for AdamSea receives numerous benefits and privileges not only for yourself but for your company. You have the ability to work year round as AdamSea customers come from all around the world. You are given surveying tasks within your province, so your jobs will not be too far from home. You have the potential to perform hundreds of surveys with access to all new clients and marinas. Through AdamSea, your payment is guaranteed upon completion.

The AdamSea Buyer Experience




The boat buying process can be a daunting task, especially if that process is done entirely online. Luckily, AdamSea is there to ease some of the stress associated with buying a boat online. With AdamSea, you will buy from safe, secure sellers. Along with security, AdamSea can offer you as a buyer a pleasant, one-stop, hassle free buying experience.

Buyers will begin their search for the perfect vessel by registering with an AdamSea account. Once logged in, AdamSea offers options for both basic and advanced searches for boats. Simply enter your criteria for either type of search and sift through the watercrafts that match your specifications.


My Boat.
Eventually you will find a boat or yacht you wish to purchase, and when that time comes you will begin your correspondence with the seller by clicking “Buy It Now.” Then you can talk to the seller and make sure the boat is still available and view boat details such as length, engine type, and other characteristics. If you still wish to buy the boat after viewing the details, you click “Confirm to Buy.” You will then move to Negotiation.

Negotiation.
During the negotiation, you will negotiate directly with the seller without any type of intervention from AdamSea. The boat you are trying to buy will have a price listed as either “Negotiable” or “Fixed.” If fixed, you will proceed to Payment. If negotiable, you will enter your proposed price. Once the seller accepts the price, you will proceed to Payment.

Payment.
Here you will see full cost of the boat including the cost of certification and tax, but excluding the shipping cost; this will be determined later. AdamSea also give you the freedom to choose the payment method for the certification. AdamSea advises that every boat undergo certification to ensure the boat you buy is functioning properly. Once paid, you move to Certify (Survey) My Boat.

Certify (Survey) My Boat. 
The closest surveyor will be sent a request to certify your boat. They receive the boat description and the boat location. Once the request for certification is received, the certifier has 3 days to complete the request and upload the Report.

Report.
In this section, you receive the certificate as a PDF file, pictures of the boat, and a video of the boat. You will then circle back to Payment.

Payment.
You place funds in escrow with AdamSea as per one of their payment options based on the price of the boat. AdamSea then moves to the Shipment process once the payment is received.

Shipment.
You will complete a Shipment Request form. You will then receive a shipping quote from shipping companies via email. Choose the shipping vendor you want, and make a payment directly to the shipper and not via AdamSea or the seller.

New Boat
They buying process for a new boat is similar to that of a used boat, but you do not get to negotiate a price and the boat does not need outside certification.

Auditing
AdamSea audits every one of your transactions every step of the way. This ensures safety for both you as the buyer and for the seller. AdamSea auditors will decline any transaction that does not meet AdamSea terms of service, does not have complete reporting, or is suspicious in nature—allowing you peace of mind during the entire process.

Now you are the proud owner of a water traveling vessel, providing hours of enjoyment for you and your family and friends. Travel safely!
