Pete Peterson

Pete Peterson started Naples Yacht Brokerage in 1988. Since then, the business has achieved the distinction of being the oldest independent brokerage in Naples, Florida. Pete's experience sailing on Lake Michigan, Galveston Bay, the Gulf and the Bahamas gave him hands-on knowledge of his product. His sales background started in Houston, TX in 1978, where he specialized in new sailboats and trawlers. A move to the Space Coast in 1983 after sailing in the Bahamas landed him another position with Waterline Yachts. When the Petersons arrived in Naples 24 years ago aboard their Westsail 32, a friend convinced Pete he should start his own business instead of going to work for a dealer. The rest is history! Pete is honest, trusted, confident and a consummate professional.
