After graduating from ODU, he began a career in the electric utility industry that spanned 14 years. During this time the salt water kept calling, he acquired his Coast Guard Masters License and eventually left the middle management area of the utility business to make a living on the water. Over ten years ago, Scott started selling and brokering boats and yachts and has developed lasting relationships with boat manufacturers, marinas and customers, many of these customers in overseas markets. The move to Bluewater Yacht Sales in the fall of 2012 was a natural progression, as many of his longtime customers will point out.
