About Us
Owner and Founder - Captain Thomas "Tommy" Clark
Captain Thomas “Tommy” Clark is a licensed USCG 100 GRT Master Captain with an Auxiliary Sail endorsement and is a licensed Florida Yacht Broker. Tommy’s affinity for sailing and boating began as a young boy with his father and uncle near the northern shores of the Gulf of Mexico and on the Caribbean waters of Belize. Tommy’s philosophy of the sailing/boating lifestyle is perfectly summed up by this quote from Mark Twain … “Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So, throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.”
Tommy acquired his professional boating experience on the water through various charter captaining roles in Belize and delivering sailing yachts from South Florida to various locations on the Gulf Coast. In addition to this, Tommy has accrued thousands of miles and hours of offshore sailing through races and cruising on different sailboats that he has owned throughout his life. This well-traveled experience allows Tommy to offer his clients a wide range of knowledge in various marine trades and advice in several different states, countries, and cultures.
Captain Clark has always had an interest in the maintenance, repair, and sales sides of the marine industry. This includes anything from purchasing boats to repairing/preparing for reselling or even working as a hired marine contractor for full re-fits.
Clients and customers alike will find comfort and confidence when working with or hiring Tommy due to his well-rounded knowledge of several different business worlds. Over the last ten plus years, Tommy’s entrepreneurial spirit and drive have led him to found, establish and operate numerous successful small businesses in several fields. This experience allows him to relate to clients and understand their priorities and backgrounds.
As far as yacht brokering is concerned, Tommy takes pride in the fact that his diverse knowledge and experience ultimately translate to helping the client find the “right” boat. He believes the client should never feel as though they are being sold a particular boat, but instead, that they are being helped and guided in their boating journey. It’s imperative to Tommy that his clients feel comfortable, satisfied, and can trust him to do what he says and say what he means.
