Jeremy Klaffer
Jeremy has had a love and passion for boating and the water since he was three weeks old when his father took him out on a boat for the first time. A true Floridian, Jeremy was born and raised in South Florida where he owned his first boat well before he owned his first car or could drive. While boating up and down the intercoastal and exploring the waters of South Florida, he wore out an engine or three. Before he was sixteen, he learned how to tear down and rebuild engines while learning how to get every ounce of horsepower. This is where Jeremey found his second passion, Marine Mechanics.
After high school, Jeremy attended The Marine Mechanics Institute in Orlando, Florida where he graduated with honors. He learned everything about engines and marine systems. Jeremy also holds his 100 Gross Ton Masters Captains’ License from Chapmans School of Seamanship. In addition to Yacht Brokerage, Jeremy owns his own Marine Repair Company where he specializes in diesel engines, maritime systems, and outboards. When it comes to Yachts and Boats, nobody is more qualified than Jeremy to evaluate the condition of a vessel prior to the survey and offer professional advice.
Of course, on his rare day off Jeremy spends his free time on the water fishing and boating with his friends and his wife, Sandi, along with his two daughters, Jaylah and Myah. Today, Jeremy is seen on the docks working on the engines of his own boat, still trying to get a knot or two faster, just like he did as a kid.
Joining United Yacht Sales as a Yacht Broker was a natural move toward working with customers from all walks of life sharing his knowledge and experience.
Jeremy is continuing the tradition and raising his children the way he was raised, in the salty air and Florida sunshine with a fishing pole in hand.
