Hello & Welcome To Boats and Yachts Online Blog

My name is Wayne and I reside on the West Coast of Florida, and I am a full-time yacht broker for an elite brokerage house called Allied Marine. Allied Marine is one of the oldest, most respected yacht brokerage houses in the US, and is owned by a world leader in the yacht industry called the Ferretti Yacht Group. I have had the pleasure of helping clients buy and sell yachts for over ten years, both in the US and worldwide. So why am I a yacht broker? The answer is very simple, I love it. I cannot imagine a better job. Let’s face it -- cruising around with clients buying and selling some of the finest luxury yachts in the world cannot be all bad. Also, in my over 15 years in the industry, I have been formally trained and educated in a number of yacht lines -- Bertram, Hatteras, Ferretti, Riva, Pershing, and Mochi Craft Yachts. I also have extensive education in Azimut, Searay, Tiara, and Maritimo Yachts, just to name a few. But in addition to selling new yachts, I have the pleasure of helping clients purchase and sell pre-owned boats. And the great thing about that - if it's pre-owned, I can help people buy any yacht, anywhere. Whether it's a sport fishing yacht, a motor yacht or a trawler, I've seen them, I've ridden them, and I've helped buy and sell them, both domestically and internationally. So the point of this blog is to share my excitement about these yachts, provide information about the yacht market as whole, show you some of best deals in the yacht market right now, and help answer any questions you might have if you're considering buying or selling a boat. Below are a few of my websites -- please visit these sites, and once again I appreciate any and all of your comments and hope you revisit my blog!
Best regards.

To your next yacht.
Wayne.

64 Mochi Craft

The 64 Mochi Craft fly bridge is without great versatile yacht with a stunning beautiful downeast style appearance..
Built in Forli Italy, the Ferretti Yacht Group created a unique version of the blue collar downeast fishing boat.
The 64 Mochi Craft has an elegant yet rugged and soft profile and very distinguished lines.
The 64 Mochi Craft has a tumble down hull aft, a large comfortable cockpit. She has a very majestic bow, with a bow flare
more commonly seen on luxury custom built sport fisherman.
She has a fold down transom area which gives access to the tender garage, the transom comes to rest above the water converting the transom in great real estate, put out some deck chairs put up some sun shade, throw the tender into the water that is as clear as looking at a Gin & Tonic – what a way to spend the day..
The 64 Mochi Craft runs as good as she looks with optional MAN 1224 cruising at a comfortable approximately 27 Knots.
I always find it amazing how quite it is when the boat is underway and I am on the fly bridge.
The fly is well laid out and will be comfortable for friend and family. The fly bridge is an extension of the lines on her profile it is integrated into the superstructure – not added on as an afterthought.
It must be the brow covering the top of the forward windshield that re-directs the wind around the super structure?
The Yacht has a fine teak interior that would make anyone feel very comfortable in, a beautiful Teak and Maple sole.
The carpentry is world class - as we have come to expect from the Ferretti yacht Group
The 64 Mochi Craft has a big spacious salon with a flip open aft bulkhead window that lifts up allowing the salon to flow out onto the aft deck.
The 64 Mochi has a lower interior helm station forward on the starboard side opposite the galley.
There are three large staterooms with crew quarters aft on the aft deck. The 64 is easily handled by a family so turn the crew into rooms for the children/grand children or use them for extra storage?
All there staterooms have heads with stall showers and the master is mid ship with an extra large head.
The Mochi Craft Fly also come in a 74’ flybridge.
I believe that the 64 Mochi Craft is a very exciting yacht and offers a lot more than most 64’ yachts do not.
If you are interested in getting a color book, DVD and more detailed information on Mochi Crafts yacht please do not hesitate to contact me.

840 Altura

The best way for me to personally decried the 840 Altura is WOW -
I mean it’s great, it’s very cool and its different.
When we step aboard the majority of yachts and enter the salon the feeling we get/expect is the same feeling as the majority of other yachts that we have stepped aboard, you know sliding salon door stepping into a long salon with fine stones and exotic woods.
But when I first stepped into the 840 Altura my first impression was WOW - to me it was like stepping into a condo, probably because of the split levels, hopefully in the presentation below you can appreciate what I and trying to say.
There is an abundance if natural light, the galley is down (now you folks that are against the galley down yachts, please understand it not down in a dark place) its down but its bright you can and talk to someone in the salon, there is a very large window that you can open for a cross breeze – it’s very cool.
The interior helm station is on an upper level out of the way of the salon.
The master stateroom is a full beam master and is aft of the salon with a large window behind the bed and large windows to the sides
The bow area is very cool area there is great wrap around seating, there is a large retractable umbrella for shade covering a large table, an awesome place to start the day with breakfast or end it with a magical sunset forward of the seating area our bow sun pads. If you want to eat outside and do not want to eat on the bow or the bridge then there is a large table on the aft deck
The fly bridge is great real estate, plenty of room, to hang out and entertain with close friends and family. There is an optional hard top with a retractable sunroof and there is room aft on the bridge for the tender and crane.
The 840 is a true performer like all of the Ferretti Yachts. Powered with twin MTU V12 200 series she cruises at a fast 27K. she has two 23 KW generators a 40HP bow thruster
For added comfort she has two Mitsubishi 4000 Anti Rolling Gyros to take the roll out of the yacht when on the hook or at lower speeds.
Overall the 840 Altura is a unique and special motor yacht and if you are considering owning an 83-84’ motor yacht you owe it to yourself
to inquire further about the 840 Altura.
As of May 2010 we have one in stock. Let me invite you to sea trial this beautiful yacht.

This 510 Ferretti offers a lot of very cool features for a 51’ yacht.
She is currently at our office in Naples Florida.
This 510 has a 16’2” beam & is powered with MAN 800 CR motors she will cruise around 27K
This particular vessel has the Mitsubishi Ant Rolling Gyro which is perfect for the folks who tend to get motion sickness.
If you are not familiar with the Anti rolling Gyro (ARG) and want to know more about it call me.
