7. Vessel Listings

Although the information, specifications, photographs, and other content relating to a vessel listed on the Website, including content provided by the Owner and any supplementary content prepared or contributed by Galati Yacht Sales LLC in connection with the preparation or publication of a vessel listing (collectively, “Listing Content”), has been obtained from sources deemed reliable, Galati Yacht Sales LLC does not make any guarantee as to the accuracy or completeness of any Listing Content. Each individual providing Listing Content represents and warrants that all Listing Content  is accurate and complete. Galati Yacht Sales its Affiliates and Representatives have not made any independent investigation or verification of any Listing Content provided by or on behalf of a individual, including, without limitation, all content contained on the Website, in advertising, or in any other printed or online materials, and makes no representations as to the accuracy or completeness of such Listing Content. You acknowledge and agree that you shall have the opportunity to conduct your own due diligence with respect to any vessel listed on the Website prior to submitting an offer or completing a purchase, and that you are solely responsible for satisfying yourself as to the condition, specifications, and suitability of any vessel.

Galati Yacht Sales LLC and/or the Seller shall provide prospective buyers with a reasonable opportunity to inspect any vessel listed on the Website prior to the completion of a transaction. If you wish to arrange an inspection of a listed vessel, please submit a request by contacting the Listing Contact referenced on the applicable listing’s website page.

Certain vessel listings on the Website may be subject to a designated offer period, during which Galati Yacht Sales LLC will accept offers from qualified buyers. The end date of any such offer period (the “Offer Period End Date”) will be displayed on the applicable vessel listing page on the Website. Galati Yacht Sales LLC may extend any Offer Period End Date in its sole discretion. The availability of an offer period and the establishment of an Offer Period End Date are determined at the sole discretion of Galati Yacht Sales LLC.

Galati Yacht Sales LLC will not accept offers for a vessel through the Website outside of an active offer period for such vessel. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in these Terms shall restrict or prohibit Galati Yacht Sales LLC from marketing, promoting, or facilitating the sale of any vessel outside of or prior to the commencement of an active offer period, including during any pre-listing or promotional period.

Qualified buyers may submit offers on listed vessels during an active offer period by completing the Offer to Purchase form through the Website. Offers on vessels listed through the Website may only be submitted through the Website in the manner described herein. Galati Yacht Sales LLC will not accept, recognize, or process any offer submitted through any other channel, and any such offer shall be deemed void and of no legal force or effect.

In addition, certain vessels may be designated as available for immediate purchase at a stated price through the Website’s “Buy Now” feature. Both offers submitted during an offer period and “Buy Now” purchases are governed by the applicable Offer Terms and Conditions (the Unified Offer Terms and Conditions (Brokerage Vessel) for third-party seller transactions, or the Unified Offer Terms and Conditions (GYS as Seller) where Galati Yacht Sales LLC owns the vessel), which will be presented to the buyer for review and electronic signature via PandaDocs (or such other electronic signature platform as Galati Yacht Sales LLC may designate) prior to completion of the transaction. Buyers must complete the Request for Qualification and Deposit Agreement prior to electing the “Buy Now” option for any vessel. The “Buy Now” feature is not available to buyers who have not been qualified and whose deposit has not been received by Galati Yacht Sales LLC in accordance with the Request for Qualification and Deposit Agreement.

By submitting an offer or electing to purchase a vessel through the “Buy Now” feature BUYER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT SUCH ACTION CONSTITUTES A LEGALLY BINDING AGREEMENT. OFFEROR IS ADVISED TO READ ALL TERMS AND CONDITIONS CAREFULLY AND TO CONSULT WITH AN ATTORNEY BEFORE SIGNING.

The owner acknowledges and agrees that Galati Yacht Sales LLC may act as a broker in connection with transactions conducted in whole or part through this Website. Any such brokerage arrangement shall be set forth in a separate written agreement. Nothing in these Terms or the use of this Website shall create a brokerage or agency relationship. To the extent that Galati Yacht Sales LLC acts as a broker you acknowledge we may act as a dual-agent in a purchase and sale transaction. You acknowledge that Galati Yacht Sales LLC may disclose facts known to us materially affecting the vessel’s value or desirability. We disclaim any duty to make such disclosures or independently investigate any listing. Nor shall we be required to disclose to a buyer that the owner is willing to sell the vessel for an amount less than the asking price, or to disclose that the buyer is willing to pay a price greater than the offered price. Galati Yacht Sales LLC may have or obtain listings for other vessels. Potential buyers may purchase vessels the same as or similar to the vessel through Galati Yacht Sales LLC. The owner consents to Brokerage’s representation of sellers and buyers of such other vessels at any time. Where Galati Yacht Sales LLC is itself the seller of a listed vessel, Galati Yacht Sales LLC is acting as a principal seller and not as a broker or dual agent with respect to that transaction. The dual agency disclosure in this Section applies only to transactions where a third-party seller owns the vessel.
