Glen Appelbaum

Glen hails from South Africa, where he worked at Merrill Lynch in Johannesburg. Having always been interested in boating, he took a 5-week sailing course in 1995 and did a 600-mile round-trip race, and in 1996, he bought a boat in Cape Town and sailed across the Atlantic to the Caribbean. After cruising for a couple of years between the islands and the Chesapeake, he made Charleston, SC his home. He has been completely immersed in everything marine, from living on his boat, to doing charters, deliveries, towing with TowBoatU.S., racing a J-125, Beneteau 47.7 First, and currently an X-p 44, and working as a broker at a sailboat dealer and then his own brokerage, since 2000. Glen’s focus is his client. His goal is to make his client as happy with their experience on the water as Glen has been with his.
