Captain Mike O'Connor, CPYB
United States Coast Guard Master/Broker/California Notary Public

Mike's love affair with boating began as a young boy in 1964 when he sailed small keelboats off the waters of Cape Cod. Since those days he has logged over 80,000 nautical miles from the Philippines to Nova Scotia. He has experience in all types of vessels, from Sabots to 82’ 1928 Classic Racing Schooners, Racing Hydroplanes to Commercial Sportfishers.
Let Mike put his many years of experience to work for you.

Mike's dedication to the yacht brokerage industry and his commitment to achieving the highest standard of integrity, knowledge, service and performance has earned him the designation of Certified Professional Yacht Broker.

Certification is an important element in the growing recognition of yacht brokerage as a profession. Every CPYB yacht broker has a responsibility to uphold the highest standards of the profession and to participate in ongoing personal educational development. As one of only 498 yacht brokers in North America, I am proud to say "I am a Certified Professional Yacht Broker".

Featured Boat 46' Grand Banks Alaskan 1968 US$ 129,500 "China Cloud" is a beautiful example of this classic DeFever design. She has had many upgrades and custom features that show very nicely. This vessel would make a comfortable and spacious liveaboard or a sturdy, dependable coastal cruiser. She is well equipped for cruising the Pacific Northwest to the Sea of Cortez and is powered with the reliable, economical Ford Lehman marine diesels.
