Mark has over thirty years of boating experience, traveling tens of thousands of miles on the waters of the Gulf, Atlantic, Pacific, and beyond. He grew up in Naples, Florida, where his love of fishing and boating began, and you could often find him aboard his 13' Whaler starting at the age of nine. 

Growing up in South Florida, Mark has an extensive network of marine industry contacts to assist his clients with all aspects of boating. Whether you need to find a slip or need help navigating the waters with your new vessel, Mark is here to support you in any way possible.

In addition to his vast boating network, Mark has over 20 years of experience fishing the off-shore tournament circuit. This has given him an edge on the newest boating technologies, notably Omni Sonar, the Gyro Stabilizers, and dynamic positioning. He has also been involved in product development as a ProStaff member for industry leaders such as Yamaha, Mercury, Contender, SeaVee, and Bahama Boatworks — giving him first-hand experience with the latest products in the marine industry.  

Mark prides himself on his up-to-date knowledge of the latest outboard technology, custom, and production sportfishing yachts, as well as the Cruisers GLS line. He is well-versed in walking a new or experienced buyer through the build process and serves as a liaison between the factory and the client. Mark understands that factory visits and an open line of communication are both imperative to designing a boat that ultimately fits your needs — ensuring that the end product fulfills your complete vision and has a strong resale value.
