About

Grand Banks Yachts – Timeless Elegance, Unmatched Craftsmanship

Since 1956, Grand Banks Yachts has been a benchmark in luxury yacht design and engineering, earning a reputation for their classic lines, impeccable craftsmanship, and superior seaworthiness. From their earliest days, Grand Banks has delivered yachts that stand the test of time, making them a top choice for discerning yachtsmen worldwide.

Grand Banks made waves with the iconic Grand Banks 36, the trawler that started it all in 1964. This groundbreaking design, known for its practical layout, efficiency, and seaworthiness, set the standard for their Heritage Series, which continues to delight cruising enthusiasts. The larger Grand Banks 42 also became a staple, celebrated for its spacious design and long-range capabilities.

In addition to the Heritage Series, the Eastbay Series brought a Downeast-inspired sporty style to the brand in the 1990s, with models like the Eastbay 38 and Eastbay 43 offering impressive performance and elegance. These yachts combined the charm of traditional styling with the power and speed modern owners demanded.

Today, Grand Banks’ modern lineup—including the Grand Banks 6054, and 85—seamlessly blends classic craftsmanship with cutting-edge innovation. Featuring advanced materials, fuel-efficient V-Warp® hull designs, and luxurious interiors, these models set new benchmarks for comfort and performance. With the addition of the sleek and stylish Palm Beach Series, Grand Banks caters to those who crave contemporary designs and exceptional efficiency.

I joined the Brewer Yacht Sales team in 1997 at the Brewer Sakonnet location and relocated in 1999 upon the opening of our Wickford Cove office. During my time with Brewers, I have won numerous awards including "Broker of the Year," "Customer Satisfaction," and most recently I received the "Team Work" award. I am a proud member of the Yacht Brokers Association of America and a Certified Professional Yacht Broker. I place a high value on meticulous service and comprehensive knowledge of our products. I started my career in sales as a manufacturer's representative at 18 years old and continued to represent electronics distributors until I opened my own business buying and selling companies and their production equipment both domestically and abroad.

Introduced to boating as an infant, I can't recall a summer when we weren't water skiing, fishing, or sailing. My father was a Sales Manager for Mercury and we grew up in Rhode Island where I had opportunities to crew on sport-fishing boats and campaign-racing sailboats on a regular schedule. My lifetime on the water offers me the valuable experience necessary to facilitate new and practiced boaters alike with the purchase or sale of their next boat!
