Growing up in Fort Lauderdale, John developed a passion for the water at an early age. He learned to sail Sunfish and Hobie Cats off the beach before mastering the fundamentals of boating by docking a small vessel powered by a 6hp engine—with no reverse. Today, life on the water continues to be a central part of who he is, whether he's exploring local sandbars, visiting waterfront destinations, or spending time with family and the many friends he's made along the way.

As a professional yacht broker with HMY Yacht Sales, John helps clients navigate the buying and selling process with professionalism, integrity, and a commitment to putting their best interests first. With more than 20 years of marine industry experience and a lifetime spent in Fort Lauderdale—widely recognized as the Yachting Capital of the World—he offers valuable local knowledge and trusted expertise. Throughout his career, John has built strong, long-standing relationships with shipyards, marinas, and an extensive network of industry professionals, including insurance specialists, yacht managers, captains, crew, and detailers, providing clients with seamless support from listing through delivery.

Whether you're buying your first boat, upgrading to your next yacht, or preparing to sell, John is dedicated to making the experience smooth, informed, and successful while helping you achieve your goals on the water.
