July 8, 2024 Cockwells appoints Penny Wakeling to manage new brokerage service

Cockwells Modern & Classic Boatbuilding, the proud creator of Duchy Motor Launches, Hardy Motor Yachts and luxurious, highly-customised superyacht tenders for a discerning global clientele, has announced the appointment of Penny Wakeling as the manager of its new brokerage service.

As clients upgrade their boats to larger Duchy Motor Launches or all-new Hardy Motor Yacht designs, a select number of preloved vessels have returned to the market. Cockwells has therefore established a dedicated brokerage service to match the right boats to the right owners, with the help of its expert team.

 

“Penny is the perfect fit to take the reins of our new brokerage service,” explains Cockwells’ Founder and Sales Director, Dave Cockwell. “Having been involved professionally in the marine sector for more than 15 years, Penny is no stranger to the industry, with eight of those years spent in business development and as a marine yacht broker, selling luxury high-end vessels. We congratulate Penny on her appointment and wish her every success in her new role.”

 

“I am delighted to have been offered the opportunity to manage the increasing availability of Duchy Motor Launches and Hardy Motor Yachts on brokerage as Cockwells continues to develop these popular brands,” adds Penny Wakeling. “Having worked in the After Sales team for the past few years, I have witnessed the Company’s rapid expansion, following its acquisition of Hardy Marine’s assets in 2020, with more boats in build than ever before. As our loyal customers upgrade to larger Duchys and all-new Hardy models, we can now offer their original vessels through our brokerage for new owners to enjoy. It is a real privilege for me to be part of such a passionate company with a bright and ambitious future ahead.”

 

With an exclusive selection of vessels available and a team that offers a wealth of knowledge and exemplary customer service, Cockwells is well-placed to support those interested in purchasing a high-quality, previously owned Duchy Motor Launch or Hardy Motor Yacht.
