The Highest Standard.Both Sides.Fully Represented.
A premier yacht brokerage built for premier clients — sportfish, motoryachts and center consoles.
When the stakes are real, there is only one standard.
Thirty years changes what you know. It changes how you see a vessel, how you read a market, how you structure a negotiation, and how you protect a client when the details of a transaction start working against them. Spencer Christopher Yacht and Ship was built on that kind of knowledge — earned on the water, sharpened across hundreds of transactions, and carried into every engagement with the full weight of fiduciary obligation that the industry's most demanding clients have come to expect.
We go where the deal is, because neither our clients nor their vessels are confined to a single market, and neither are we. When the stakes are real, there is only one standard.
Crewed, captained, engineered
Former professional yacht crew, seasoned captains and certified marine engineers. Every one of us has worked the industry from the water up.
Fiduciary on every transaction
A family-owned brokerage operating to a fiduciary standard for buyers and sellers alike — valuation, survey, escrow and closing, all held to the same line.
The Eastern Seaboard and the Bahamas
Center consoles, sportfish yachts and luxury motor yachts, wherever the deal is. Neither our clients nor their vessels are confined to a single market.
