JP Skov, CPYB
Jean-Pierre Skov was born and raised in St. Croix, U.S.V.I. He grew up in the marine industry, starting with his dad’s charter company and boat yard on the East end of the Island. He captained charter boats in the Caribbean, competitively raced sailboats for the V.I. Olympic team, and worked for Hess Oil in the marine department as a tug captain of a 105’ ship handling/ocean-towing tug.
In 1995, Jean-Pierre migrated to being a full-time yacht broker. His knowledge of the industry and yachts in general made this transition the perfect fit. He prides himself on developing his client relationships into friendships. His clients know that he is always only a phone call away to answer any questions.
For the past 20 years, he has also been intricately involved in industry leadership. He has served the Yacht Brokers Association of America(YBAA) as a board member, Excecutive Committee, and president. He is still very active in leadership of the industry as the current Executive Director of YBAA.
