How selling your dredger through Boogaard works
- Send us the details. Use the form below or email mail@boogaardbrokers.com.

- Class certificates and class status

Discreet sale
Many owners prefer not to advertise a sale openly. We can list your vessel without name or owner, or offer it only to selected buyers in our network. Discretion is common in our market and is agreed with you before any marketing starts.
Equipment we sell
We sell used dredging and marine construction equipment of all sizes, including cutter suction dredgers, trailing suction hopper dredgers, backhoe dredgers, split hopper barges, multicat vessels, tugboats and pontoons. Most buyers of used dredging equipment are based outside Europe, in Africa, the Middle East, Asia and South America; our network reaches them directly.
