CONTACT BROKER

Erik has been involved in the marine industry for over a decade. He started his brokerage career with Martin Bird & Associates in Annapolis in 2014. Before that, Erik was a successful Store Manager with West Marine, winning many top accolades, including multiple District Store of the Year awards. Erik was born in New York, where he learned to sail at a young age on the Hudson River. In the mid-1990s, his family moved to Annapolis, where his fondness for the Chesapeake grew by being involved in sailboat racing, fishing, and other water-related activities.

To further his career as a yacht broker, Erik attended continuing education training and was granted certification as a Certified Professional Yacht Broker in 2017. His drive to ensure his client's needs are met is paramount. Erik believes his job is never done with any client and that the personal assistance he provides clients, some years after they make their purchase, sets him apart from other brokers in the industry.

Erik is known to be personable and easily explains different vessels and their systems, making it a pleasant experience for both buyers and sellers as they get to know their boat better and understand how to remedy issues along the way. He has a wide breadth of yacht sales experience, from blue water yachts to center console fishing boats, picnic boats, sport fishers, racing sailboats, trawlers, and motor yachts.

When Erik is not showing boats, you can find him on the Bay on his Regulator center console or involved in the sailboat races out of Annapolis and around the East Coast. During the winter, Erik relocates to South Florida to be closer to his clients, participating in the annual "snowbird" ritual.
