Mike Simko
Sales Professional in Palm Beach Gardens, FL
Over four decades Mike Simko’s love of diving and fishing has developed into his full time passion for helping friends and clients alike have great boating experiences. From a 10 year old catching spanish and bluefish off the east coast piers and jetties, to releasing big gamefish in tournaments worldwide. Whether buying or selling, Mike’s experience with sportfishing yachts up to the largest custom inboard battlewagons, including propulsion, electronics, rigging, angling, boat handling, and an array of marine systems gives those who work with him a confidence that they are in good hands.
“I feel fortunate that as a Yacht Broker with HMY Yacht Sales I am able to share my yachting and fishing experiences with clients every day.”
As a lifetime member of the West Palm Fishing Club, a tournament captain, professional angler, and inventor of marine innovations including the Kite Keeper, Kite Keeper Pro, and Break-a- Weight Mike’s products and fishing adventures have been documented on Krusing America TV, ESPN Outdoors, FLW Outdoor Magazine, Florida Sportsman, and the Palm Beach Post to name a few.
