Jacob McGowan
Jacob McGowan founded Silver King Yachts in 2017 at just 23 years old, turning a lifelong vision into reality. Born in Jupiter, Florida, he entered the yacht brokerage world at 18, launching his career full-time in Fort Lauderdale—the epicenter of the boating industry.
From the moment he earned his broker’s license, Jacob was determined to build a brokerage of his own. That dream became a reality with the launch of Silver King Yachts, which continues to thrive under his leadership, integrity, and deep-rooted passion for the marine world.
Since its founding, Jacob has grown the company to over $50 million in annual sales, all while maintaining a world-class reputation and a strong commitment to hiring only seasoned industry professionals.
A licensed captain, avid fisherman, recreational surfer, proud father to a beautiful daughter, and devoted dog dad to three rescues, Jacob lives and breathes life on the water. His full-time dedication to the boating lifestyle and deep industry expertise make him a trusted and respected name in yacht the brokerage industry.
