I’m in the same position, mine will be going up for sale soon.
Personally, and that’s all it is, I don’t have a particularly strong opinion of brokers.
I’ve looked at a few boats in the past being sold by a broker ( both different) and the service ( a very loose term) was nothing short of insulting.
The lack of effort or interest to sell the boat was shocking. Had they of been mine I would have been furious.
I know of a friends boat that is up for sale at the moment, significantly over priced, not selling but happily left by the broker going nowhere.
For these reasons, I can advertise my boat as well as they can and more importantly, provide interest, knowledge and information to anyone interested.
I believe there are enough online platforms now to get a boat out there to be seen by those that are looking..
Now just to sell mine.
