Tim Hicks
I’d have to say I’ve been a bit of a water man my entire life. Beginning in Ohio, with time spent on Lake Erie and in our family pool, I was drawn to it with a strong magnetism. I carried that with me to North Carolina when my family moved to a lake community where our backyard was a slalom course. Every afternoon was spent on the lake where I became an avid skier. When not being pulled behind the boat, I was typically at the helm, especially when it came to docking where I shined, even at 10 years old.
Continuing that waterside trend, I attended UNCW where I gained a Bachelor’s in Chemistry and even joined the water ski team before graduating and moving to San Diego. California brought my first experience as a Yacht Broker that taught me priceless knowledge about our industry and fueled my passion for the long-haul. From brokerage to new, sail to motoryacht, I have sold and delivered countless brands and styles to hundreds of wonderful people throughout my career.
In 2018, I created Marlin Marine Management that not only cares for the marine asset in which owners can rely on, but also the coastal lifestyle that comes along with yacht ownership.
Utilizing over two decades of sales, service, orientation and delivery, I can greatly assist anyone interested in the quality lineup of yacht brands that OneWater Yacht Group offers. Not only ensuring you find the right yacht for your boating style, but maintaining its reliability and value throughout your ownership. I look forward to meeting you and gaining another long-lasting and exciting friendship. Let’s connect today!
