After spending several years cruising between the Caribbean islands and the Chesapeake Bay, Glen eventually made Charleston, South Carolina his home. Since 2000, he has been fully immersed in the marine lifestyle—living aboard his boat, running charters, working with TowBoatU.S., and racing a Beneteau 47. His hands-on experience spans nearly every aspect of boating, both professionally and personally.
Glen transitioned into yacht brokerage after working with a sailboat dealership and later launching his own brokerage, bringing his real-world knowledge and passion for sailing into every client interaction. Today, he continues to focus on delivering a personalized, client-first experience—helping others achieve the same level of enjoyment and freedom on the water that has defined his own journey.

From cruising and racing to charters and towing, I’ve experienced nearly every side of life on the water. I use that knowledge to help you make confident decisions and ensure your experience is as enjoyable as the destination itself.
