Bill originally hails from the east coast port of Charleston, SC. Having sailed recreationally throughout his youth, he decided to make boats and yachts his career path at 20 years old. He spent over 10 years working as a captain/engineer on sailing yachts from 55ft – 110ft LOA, with programs ranging from remote cruising to heavy chartering to high-level racing. He accumulated nearly 75,000 nautical miles on both monohulls and catamarans. 

Bill switched tacks and moved ashore in 2018 to work as a broker. Given his background as captain/manager, he continues to offer management services to select brokerage clients who purchase or sell power and sailboats of all types and sizes, now having overseen some ~$25 million worth of refit projects across his career. He especially values and focuses on his buyer-clients and has built a reputation on helping clients in all sizes/categories sift through the options to find the vessel that best suits their needs and budget.
