History

25 years ago, American Marine were amongst the first to embrace the internet in the yacht market and use it to bring buyers and sellers together across the Atlantic (as in those days, the market was mostly limited to Europe). Since 1992 we have exported thousands of boats into six continents and onto parts of the world you would never imagine. We were exporting boats from the US way before it became "fashionable" and everyone else tried to imitate our services. Global Yacht Sales has always been our forte.
