Mark Edwards
If it has anything to do with sailing, Mark has probably done it. He has 60-years worth of experience in ocean racing and cruising including Bermuda races, One Design races, Block Island race weeks, a trans-Atlantic cruise to Gibraltar, and countless deliveries of sail and powerboats in the northeast and mid-Atlantic.
Mark has always worked in the marine field. Right out of high school he found work in the mold room at Pearson Yachts laminating fiberglass hulls and taught sailing summers. Armed with a BA in Philosophy, Mark returned to manufacturing working for Tillotson-Pearson Yachts, Freedom Yachts and Legacy Powerboats, and finally Pearson Composites and True North and Alerion Express Yachts as a builder, customer service and quality control manager, and ultimately factory direct sales. Mark joined Cape Yachts in 2008.
Mark’s experience has made him a great listener, an excellent communicator, and a client advocate. His service and boatbuilding background gives him a unique understanding of how boats are put together. Mark is not looking for the quick sale, but rather the long-term relationships that have also helped him establish many friendships along the way.
Married for 40 years, Mark has two daughters and lives in Dartmouth, Massachusetts. If you think his passion for boating is confined to his working hours, guess again. He builds boats at home including canoes, kayaks, rowing shells, and standup paddleboards. If you are seeking an experienced yachting professional with energy, enthusiasm, and dedication to your boating needs, Mark is the one to call.
