(Company)">Nauta Design</a>, and&nbsp;<a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/15" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Vripack (Company)">Vripack</a>&nbsp;in designing and building Project Thunderball?We are collaborating with an owner who, like myself, has a passion for the sea and a background in sailing yachts. His vision is particularly captivating: he seeks to create a superyacht that melds beauty with functionality. His aim is not just luxury for its own sake, but to conceive a vessel that is both aesthetically appealing and practical, capable of navigating in a variety of global locations.During our initial discussions on Project Thunderball, an all-steel construction was considered. However, after comprehensive assessments and detailed calculations with Vripack, we determined that a blend of steel and aluminium would yield superior stability, improved weight management, and cost efficiency. This approach highlights the owner's commitment to exhaustively exploring all options, to ensure a design that is both purposeful and well-defined.The interior design process involved a significant collaboration between <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/153" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Nauta Yachts S.r.l. (Company)">Nauta</a> and <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/15" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Vripack (Company)">Vripack</a>. The layout planning was a joint effort, led by <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/153" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Nauta Yachts S.r.l. (Company)">Nauta</a> for the interior aesthetics. In a move to align closely with his design preferences, the owner invited our team and <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/153" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Nauta Yachts S.r.l. (Company)">Nauta</a>'s designers to his seaside villa. This visit played a pivotal role in grasping the owner’s envisioned style for the yacht, aiming for an ambiance akin to a luxurious, transportable villa, suitable for destinations as varied as the Caribbean, the Mediterranean, South America, and Northern Europe.How has the&nbsp;<a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/12" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="CRN (Company)">CRN</a>&nbsp;brand evolved during your tenure, and do you have any future plans or developments in mind for the brand?When I joined <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/12" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="CRN (Company)">CRN</a> nine and a half years ago, I became a part of a brand with a history spanning over 50 years. At that time, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/12" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="CRN (Company)">CRN</a> was already renowned for its full custom yacht building approach. My initial strategy, perhaps atypical for a new manager in an established company, was to focus on strengthening and reorganising the management team. This approach was necessary to address the organisational challenges the <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/4876" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Ferretti Group (Company)">Ferretti Group</a> faced between 2010 and 2011.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/255380/image/large-7c08ce25bd081c84802e186870c563c8.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/255380">A crucial aspect of our strategy at <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/12" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="CRN (Company)">CRN</a> has been to assemble the right team for efficient project management. This ensures that our clients are paying the right price, while the company remains profitable. Our approach to yacht building, particularly for vessels over 50 metres, is distinct in the Italian market, and perhaps globally.We've established versatile platforms, utilising our accumulated expertise. Unlike some shipyards with in-house designers, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/12" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="CRN (Company)">CRN</a>'s team of architects and specialists focuses on the construction process, while we entrust design work to external talent. Our collaborations over the years have included various designers, from <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/172" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Gerhard Gilgenast (Company)">Gerhard Gilgenast</a> in the 80s to contemporary names like <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/65" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Nuvolari Lenard (Company)">Nuvolari Leonard</a>, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/153" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Nauta Yachts S.r.l. (Company)">Nauta</a>, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/15" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Vripack (Company)">Vripack</a>, and <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/1156" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Massari Design S.r.l. (Company)">Massari</a>.Our philosophy centres on realising a client's vision without being bound by pre-existing designs. This commitment to full customisation and flexibility sets <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/12" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="CRN (Company)">CRN</a> apart. It fuels our innovation in superyacht construction, as we embrace unique client dreams. For instance, the 72-metre <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/8096" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Njoy72.26m (237'1&quot;)CRN2024">Njoy</a> features one of the largest swimming pools ever built on a superyacht under 80 metres, rivalling those on much larger vessels. Such achievements reflect our dedication to our ability to push boundaries and explore new possibilities.&nbsp;I would like to emphasise the truly custom nature of our work. This bespoke approach is exemplified in our previous projects like the 54.8-metre <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/2751" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Atlante54.8m (179'9&quot;)CRN2015">Atlante</a>, the 74-metre <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/2385" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Andrea74.0m (242'9&quot;)CRN2017">Andrea</a> (formerly Cloud 9) and the 62-metre <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/7207" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="RIO62.0m (203'5&quot;)CRN2022">Rio</a>.

I'd like it moored directly in front of my seaside home, allowing me to manage it myself and easily embark on daily adventures. I prefer tranquil, remote locations over popular jet-set destinations.

During our conversation, Sean shared insights on his initial foray into yacht brokerage, his perspective on the industry's evolution, and how his experiences have shaped his successful career.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/303913/image/large-0b27c01b96b9ae859f3bb2d0d4e2d4c6.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/303913">What inspired your career choice in the yachting industry, and could you share insights into the journey that led you to this point?I grew up in Stuart, Florida, a small town renowned for its custom sportfishing boats. My father was involved with a local boat builder, immersing me in boatyards from a young age, where I watched cold moulded boats being built. This early exposure sparked my interest in marine life, leading me to become a marine biologist at the University of Florida, where I spent extensive time on research vessels.Afterwards, I had the opportunity to work on the first all-aluminium <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/29" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Feadship (Company)">Feadship</a> motor yacht, the 25.91-metre <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/10724" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Impetuous25.91m (85'0&quot;)Feadship1977">Impetuous</a>. This role took me on an extensive year-and-a-half journey.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/186942/image/large-16d2a7a22eae4f1dddd739fd4a37ff99.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/186942">After selling one of my bosses’ yachts, this sequence of events led to a pivotal moment in my career. A principal at <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/1102" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Allied Marine (Company)">Allied Marine</a>, became the unintentional catalyst for my career change. Seeking a new position, I approached him for another captaincy role, after having been a travelling captain for about a year and a half. During this period, my relationship with my then-girlfriend, now my wife of 25 years, had deepened significantly. He offered a perspective I hadn't considered, suggesting, “Why not try selling yachts instead of running them for a while? It could allow you to spend more time at home with your lovely bride-to-be”. This advice prompted the shift to yacht brokerage, setting the stage for the rest of my career.What unique skills or experiences do you believe have contributed to your success in yacht brokerage?Reflecting on the beginnings of my career, I consider myself fortunate to have been immersed in a challenging yet enriching environment at <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/1102" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Allied Marine (Company)">Allied Marine</a> in Fort Lauderdale during the mid to late 1990s. Starting out, I had the privilege of working alongside the who’s who of the industry at the time such as John Weller, Jon Burkard, Roy and Walter Sea, and Jim McConville.&nbsp;Working as a junior broker alongside such knowledgeable industry experts offered me a unique insight into yacht brokerage. Over the past 28 years with <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/1102" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Allied Marine (Company)">Allied Marine</a>, my client base has significantly expanded. One of my clients, for whom I initially sold a 26-foot Regulator, now owns a 37-metre <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/112" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Custom Line (Company)">Custom Line</a>, and is planning to upgrade to a 50-metre yacht. Additionally, I have several clients to whom I've sold upwards of 20 yachts, and they insist on involving me in all their transactions. This trust stems from my commitment to transparency and prioritising their interests above my own, ensuring that their needs are always at the forefront of any decision.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/235582/image/large-9f7006964eb379a90fb07a3da8dbc91b.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/235582">What are some key trends or changes you have observed in the yachting industry, and how do you envision its evolution in the future?The rise of social media in marketing stands out. It's intriguing to see individuals, sometimes with limited yachting knowledge, generating leads through digital platforms. Yet, I've always believed that our industry thrives on relationships. Trust and transparency with clients is what really matters. While digital strategies may bring occasional deals, lasting success is built on enduring relationships. Despite the digital shift, the essence of our business remains the same: it's all about the trust and connections we establish with our clients.How does&nbsp;<a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/1102" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Allied Marine (Company)">Allied Marine</a>&nbsp;differentiate itself in the competitive yacht brokerage market? Established in 1945, our longevity speaks to a legacy of trust. We adhere to ethical standards that, in my view, surpass those of many competitors within the Florida brokerage industry. Our team consists of seasoned and mature brokers who, while not the most internet-savvy in terms of social media platforms like Instagram or TikTok, prioritise maintaining the privacy and confidentiality of our clients above all else.We believe that a yacht should be a sanctuary for owners to create lasting memories with friends and family, away from the public eye. This philosophy extends beyond just a business model; it reflects my personal lifestyle as well. I spend approximately 60 days each summer living on my boat with my wife and three daughters. These experiences have not only strengthened our family bond but have also provided my children with a broader perspective on life. They've witnessed the diverse cultures and lifestyles from Haiti and Central and South America, the pristine waters of the Exumas, and the opulence of Harbour Island, Atlantis, the South of France, and Capri. Travel, especially by yacht, offers unparalleled insights into the world, affording a unique perspective on how others live.Do you have any advice for individuals aspiring to become yacht brokers?Yacht brokerage offers a fulfilling and enjoyable career path, where you not only get to work with a diverse array of clients, but also build lasting relationships with them. These relationships are based on trust and mutual respect, allowing for open communication at any hour. The essence of yacht brokerage lies in the joy of connecting with people, understanding their needs, and assisting them in finding the perfect yacht. It's about seeing the best in everyone and sharing in the excitement and satisfaction of a day spent on the water or the journey of finding the right boat.&nbsp;Over my 28-year career, I've found great joy in this profession, cultivating relationships with my clients, as they become more successful and yachting becomes an integral part of their lives, they often seek to upgrade to newer, larger, and better yachts. This journey allows me not only to help them realise their yachting dreams but also to earn a living in the process.On a personal note, if you could purchase a yacht which would you choose and why?If given the opportunity to purchase a yacht, my choice would be a 54-metre <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/363" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Riva S.p.A. (Company)">Riva</a>. The primary reason for this selection is my admiration for <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/366" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Officina Italiana Design (Mauro Micheli) (Company)">Mauro Micheli</a>'s design, which I find perfectly suited for cruising in the Bahamas, thanks to its shallow draft. Such a yacht would be an exceptional vessel for summer voyages in the Exumas, offering the ideal blend of elegance and functionality.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/260187/image/large-868d2ae4accbc207a4324c3e0115a63b.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/260187">Key features that stand out to me in a yacht include the modern open beach clubs, complete with fold-down wings and a sizeable pool just steps from the water. These elements have become quintessential for enhancing the onboard experience, making it a vibrant and inviting space for guests.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/260189/image/large-71c6686afce1b73416c34d82553beefa.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/260189">Additionally, I value a spacious sky lounge, a well-appointed on-deck master suite, and the aesthetic of having tenders out of sight. These preferences align with my desire for both luxury and practicality, ensuring a seamless and enjoyable yachting experience.
