BUC has revolutionized the way boats are valued, bought and sold.
We published the first BUC Used Boat Price Guide in 1961, and have been compiling information about used boats ever since using the most modern data processing techniques available. Today, there are 4 times as many boats as there were in 1961. The number and variety of used boats on today's market can be overwhelming. Buying or selling a boat has become increasingly complex, and without dependable information, finding the perfect buyer or seller is like scudding under bare poles. Why take a risk? Let BUC's technology make you a better broker.

BUC has kept pace with market growth through hard work and technological foresight. Hundreds of thousands of used boat sales reports have been gathered by mail and enhanced dramatically by sales transactions received through BUCNET, BUC's Worldwide Multiple Listing Service. With such timely market data, we can accurately predict the latest turns in the used boat marketplace. This ability makes BUC the undisputed, authoritative source of current market prices.

BUC has established the benchmark for accuracy for 40 years.
We are a proven company with a foundation built on practical experience and our unique understanding of the marine industry. Our 40-year reputation for integrity and service, along with our commitment and dedication to the industry, set us apart. The most successful dealers, brokers, marina operators, marine surveyors, manufacturers, insurance organizations, finance companies, banks, credit unions and governmental agencies rely upon BUC for useful, accurate and unbiased information.

BUC is independent and unbiased, neither affiliated with anyone, nor in anyone's back pocket.
BUC is a privately owned, independent company indifferent to the success or failure of any particular manufacturer or dealer. This unbiased, impartial approach allows us to "tell it like it is". Unlike other listing services, we do not have any cozy relationships with manufacturers or dealers that influence our placement of listings. We take pride in the fact that we are under no pressure to recommend or hype any commercial product.
