Jim Kelly

I have been a resident of Fort Lauderdale since 1963 and have been boating in South Florida, the Florida Keys and the Bahamas for over 50 years. I have been in the Yacht Brokerage business since 1989. I am a member of the International Yacht Broker's Association and joined OneWater Yacht Group in 2014. I have experience in custom and production new boat sales as well as all phases of the used boat brokerage business. A competent and experienced broker can match you with the right boat to fit your needs and budget and then guide you through every phase of the purchase. Preparing and presenting offers, properly escrowing deposit funds, arranging sea trials, and surveys are all the steps that a broker contends with. Before closing I can help with financing, insurance, proper documentation and sales tax options. I will match your needs to that perfect boat and find you the best deal available!
