Last boat we sold we used a broker at a marina and it was, in my opinion, the way to go. They helped us price it, advertise it, and when the buyer went to sea trial it and the engine sputtered because of a clogged VST filter, they fixed it on the spot to save the deal. Our guy was 10 percent, which I think is fairly typical, and they handled all of the paperwork, payment, etc. I agree there is a price threshold for using someone to sell it for you.
