I may have the most varied and pertinent charter yacht broker experience in New York Harbor:
- I've brokered NY Harbor charter yachts for 37 years.
- Regina and I chartered our own sailing yacht Prelude for 32 years in NY Harbor and 14 winters in the Eastern Caribbean.
- I've boated since I was 6 years old on over 40 motor yachts and sailing yachts.
- I've owned 4 boats.
- I've motored and sailed over 100,000 blue water and coastal miles.
- I have a United States Coast Guard 100 ton master's license with sailing endorsement.
- I have lived aboard for 51 years at the W. 79th St Boat Basin on the Upper West Side of Manhattan and for 2 years in New Jersey.
- I have been a member of the Virgin Islands Charteryacht League for over 30 years.
- I developed iboatnyharbor, a website to inform recreational boaters, harbor users, cruisers, snowbirds and transient boaters on the differences of boating in an New York's mixed-use harbor. Over 1.6 million hits..
- In a previous life I worked in IBM corporate IT systems. It took the stock market a long time to realize I had sailed off into the sunset.
