Please be advised that Allen Charlap is doing business under Dania Boat Sales and ZK Yachs based out of Dania, FL / Fort Lauderdale, FL. Mr. Charlap has been ripping people off, from what I can see for the last few years or at least thats when it began to be reported. Thank God for the internet!
Allen Charlap poses as a yacht broker and gains peoples trust just to turn around and run with their money. He also likes to contract workers, promises to pay, and then run again.
Allen Charlap is a dishonest person who takes people's money, trust, and time. Mr. Charlap has been in and out of court several times and has an ongoing case with the Broward County Sheriffs Office.
Unfortunately Mr. Charlap has not been convicted as of yet and continues to do business. Please beware of doing business with this man, or trusting a single word he says.
I had a personal run in with Mr. Charlap. I followed my gut feeling before he could take advantage of me and I walked away. I guess the fact that Mr. Charlap was unable to cheat me out of some money really upset him. Although, I've never spoken to Allen Charlap again, he decided to begin bashing me and my business. As of Mr. Charlap's actions, I decided to do some research on him and found the below referenced personal testimonies on Merchant Circle.com

Well this thing won't let me give zero stars, but Alan Charlap is a crook. He stole the money that I wired to him for the boat I got. $53K to be exact. Luckily I knew the previous owner so I got to keep the boat and they took that thief to court.
Buyer beware. Don't walk off the premesis without tite. Heck, don't even do business with him.

Dania boat sales ripoff
Dania boat sales had my boat and trailer for sale. They sold our trailer and never contacted us or gave us the money. We found out about the sale when we tried to get the license renewed. We contacted Alan and he lied. After many lies he told us he had a buyer for the boat. We told him we wouldn't notify the sheriff if he would just sell out boat and give us the money. After not hearing from him for a couple of weeks we were contacted by his attorney advising us Alan was in trouble that he had sold out boat and many others without the owners permission and walked with the money. This man is a crook, a lier, and a thief. Someone has our boat, our insurance company, Progressive, is refusing to pay us for the boat, and we are setting making payments on something we don't have. We are hoping he rots in jail with a jail mate that gives him what he deserves.

They are under investigation by Broward Sheriff's Office!
Dania Boat Sales is under investigation by the Broward Sherrif's Office. Chop-chop suspicions. I bought a boat two months ago and have yet to receive title. Alan Charlap never gave the seller the money - stiffing us both.
NOTICE: Wednesday, May 14th from 10:30 am to 4 pm the Broward Sherrif's Office will be opening up the yard (which as been closed for weeks) in order to let people who have their boats or personal property in there to get it out. You will need to bring proof of ownership and ID. More information and verification can be found at: 954.924.6810 x. 3647 at the Broward Sheriff's Office. I don't know what will happen if you don't collect your property tomorrow, but chances are that it will be impounded by the police and/or sold at a police auction. So it is imperative that you collect your property (or let others know that may have done business with Dania Boat Sales so that they can collect their own property as well.)
