CHRIS COUGHLIN

I discovered my passion for boating as a young boy growing up on the Whitefish Chain of Lakes in Minnesota. Long summer days on the lake are among my fondest childhood memories. 

Inevitably the call of the sea was too overwhelming for me to deny, and so I relocated to Florida- a place where my family vacationed on my grandfather’s boat. I kicked off my career as an ambitious 21-year-old kid with the Allied Marine Group eager to learn the ropes of the yachting industry.  Before long, I had earned my Captain’s license and spent many incredible days at sea logging over 30,000 nautical miles while captaining some of the world’s finest vessels. I was living my dream!  As years went on, I found that sharing in the enjoyment of new yacht owners to be among the most satisfying experiences- from conducting the first trial run to post-sale training on their new “toy.” The relationships formed with these boat owners allowed for me to have a seamless transition to yacht sales.  To this day, the most rewarding moments I experience are of sharing in the joy of my clients’ dreams taking shape.  

I turned my childhood passion for boating into a career and have dedicated myself to assisting my clients to realize their dreams of finding the perfect vessel.

“The key to happiness is to fill life with your passions – now it’s ‘your’ turn to answer the call of the sea.”- Chris Coughlin
