Big Sky Yachts

Big Sky Yachts offers new yachts from J Boats and RS Sailboats.   Contact us for assistance in ordering, commissioning and delivering your new boat.

For larger power and sail vessels, we work with one of the premier yacht brokerages in the country, Swiftsure Yachts of Seattle, WA.  

For local and regional listings, we maintain a network of relationships and contacts of interested buyers. Our minimum fee to list a boat is $1,500 or 10%, whichever is greater.  

As a buyer's broker we work hard to locate the ideal boat for a customer's needs. We have assisted clients in purchasing yachts from all corners of the continent, including Puerto Vallarta, Vancouver, Ft. Lauderdale, Newport, RI, Annapolis, Chicago, San Diego, San Francisco, Seattle and many points in between. We have the experience to negotiate a fair deal, and to arrange for survey, delivery and commissioning. A buyer should seriously consider having an expert on their side of the deal.  As in real estate, the seller pays the commission. 


We offer a complete line of custom racing and cruising sails from Ballard Sails, including custom carbon membrane sails for Grand Prix programs.    We will measure your boat and offer suggestions to provide the most value for your sail investment.

Big Sky Yachts is also a dealer for North Sails One Design.

Make your sail investment go further, and buy your sails in Montana where there is no sales tax!

# Engines

We supply and service engines from the leading manufacturers such as Honda, Yamaha and Tohatsu.

# Honda

Honda was among the first manufacturers to offer 4-stroke outboards in America, and the first to offer a full line of lightweight 4-stroke outboards. Honda continually perfects our marine engine line by incorporating technologies from our highly advanced automotive and racing heritage.

### HONDA provides a full 5 YEAR recreational warranty

Honda Marine also sets the industry standard for customer satisfaction. We are proud to have received the National Marine Manufacturers Association (NMMA) Customer Satisfaction Index (CSI) Award six years in a row.

# Tohatsu

The Tohatsu tradition began by building reliable motors for commercial Japanese fishermen. They needed a motor that could run for days on end, no matter what the weather. The ocean-tested engineering that enables Tohatsu motors to work under these demanding and often harsh conditions makes Tohatsu one of the toughest, most reliable engines available to you.

Tohatsu knows that when it comes to owning an outboard motor, one thing is most important to you: reliability. Whether you're fishing at dawn or watching the sunset with your family, you need a motor that will get you back, every time.

# Yamaha

Reliability. Performance. Innovation. It all starts right here. And that’s exactly why so many boaters won’t trust anything but a Yamaha out on the water.

Yamaha Outboards has proudly operated in the U.S. market for nearly 30 years. In that time, our engineers have become known for their relentless pursuit of a more satisfying boating and ownership experience for customers. As a result, Yamaha Outboards have become synonymous with innovation, performance and legendary reliability.

# Mercury

Nobody makes a more reliable, powerful, and efficient lineup of outboard motors than Mercury: Verado, Pro XS, FourStroke, SeaPro, and Jet. Backed by decades of innovation and leadership, Mercury outboards are built to go the distance, delivering legendary performance driven by forward-thinking technology.
