What is the typical cost to list a boat with a broker?

What are some things I should look for if I choose to do this?

Thanks.........

7-10%

Make sure your boat is covered by your insurance if its at a brokers. If not, get something in writing that says there insurance will cover it.

Thanks,
I started listing my boat last fall. Had it here on OSO and a few of the other sites. Since it is winter time here in Ohio and the boat is winterized and covered I figured I would wait till closer to spring to re-list it here on OSO. I left the listing on boat trader because it is a run till sold.
I have had calls from Florida, California,Carolinas, among others but tough to really do anything with the weather here.
I have it priced below book values and what others are asking for similar boats.
Trying to decide if a broker would benifit me. I am just not real comfortable not having the boat at my residence under my control.

I'm thinking if this center console was sitting in Florida instead of Ohio my chances would be better because there just are not many of these around Ohio.
