41-Year-Old Yacht Brokerage with High Margins
Business Description
Founded in 1984 and now available for purchase from the founder, this coastal South Carolina broker of used yachts enjoys an excellent reputation and a robust repeat and referral network.
With six employees, five of whom (including the seller) are broker/agents, this is both a great opportunity for someone to break into the yacht brokerage industry or for an existing yacht brokerage to expand their geographic footprint and sales team.
The current owner's work week averages 30 hours with 10-15 of those being business management. He desires to remain as an out-of-office agent for the new owner.
SDE and gross revenue are 2025 full year estimates which are based on historical norms.
As of September 2025, there are 65 listings with a total gross sales price of $12,764,000. At the standard 10% commission rate, the gross commission opportunity is robust $1,276,400.
