Michael Martin
When Michael Martin became a yacht broker in 2013, he set his sights on a particular niche of the boating industry, the America’s Great Loop Cruisers Association. After assisting hundreds of boaters in finding, buying and selling their dream Loop boat, Michael was ready for an adventure of his own. He completed his first Loop in 2016-2017. Upon completion, he re-homeported his boat to Charleston, SC and continued living aboard. In 2022 he completed his second Loop. Michael’s first-hand knowledge of the Loop waters gives him a unique advantage as a broker. He’s able to offer valuable insight, support and an insider’s perspective to his buyers and sellers. Michael prides himself on having sold many Loop boats multiple times. He considers it the ultimate compliment when a client completes the Loop and turn to him when they’re ready to find the next owner for their boat. As a founder of Great Loop Yacht Sales, Michael ensures that each client is provided an exceptional experience. Prior to becoming a yacht broker, Michael had an international business career that set the foundation for him to manage all aspects of the yacht buying and selling business. Michael also proudly served in the US Navy as an Electronic Technician. When he’s not working, Michael’s love of the water and boating continues below the surface as he is a certified scuba diver, diving primarily in Mexico and Florida. Additionally Michael holds a Private Pilot’s license.
