Doug Glendening, CPYB
Doug grew up on the water and has spent most of his life in, on, and around boats. After nearly 20 years in the insurance industry, he chose to turn a lifelong passion into a career and transitioned into yacht sales in 2006. He holds a 100 Ton USCG License and brings real-world boating knowledge, sound judgment, and steady guidance to every transaction.
Specializing in the Great Lakes market, Doug works with both new and brokerage vessels and understands the unique considerations that come with freshwater boating, seasonal use, and long-term ownership. During the summer months, Doug and his wife live aboard their classic Chris-Craft Commander, giving him firsthand perspective on the lifestyle his clients are pursuing—or moving on from.
Doug’s approach is relationship-driven and built on trust, experience, and clear communication. Whether helping buyers find the right boat or guiding sellers through a successful sale, he goes beyond the transaction to ensure his clients feel confident, informed, and supported—so they can focus on enjoying the boating life.
