Personal Service.
Professional Representation.

The sea has always been part of who I am.

I am Italo-Venezuelan, with family roots along the eastern coast of Abruzzo, Italy — a region deeply shaped by the Adriatic Sea, maritime tradition and generations of people whose lives have always been connected to the water.

Growing up in Venezuela, I was also surrounded by a strong marine culture. Boats, marinas, ports and life near the sea were always present, and that environment created an early appreciation for the boating world, vessel operations and the unique lifestyle that comes with being on the water.

In 2012, I moved to Miami and began building my professional career in one of the most important yachting markets in the world. South Florida gave me the opportunity to transform a lifelong connection with the sea into a serious career in the marine and yacht industries.

Since arriving in Miami, I have been involved in many of the most important boat shows in the United States. These events allowed me to remain closely connected with yacht builders, shipyards, brokers, captains, owners and industry professionals, while continuously expanding my understanding of both the European and American yacht markets.

I earned my U.S. Coast Guard 100 Ton Master credential and developed hands-on experience in vessel operations, marine services, logistics, management and general yacht administration. This operational background taught me to evaluate a yacht beyond its appearance, specifications or marketing presentation.

I understand the importance of systems, maintenance, functionality, documentation, service history, ownership responsibilities, logistics and long-term value. That perspective allows me to guide clients with a more complete and practical understanding of the vessel and the transaction.

For five years, I worked in yacht sales while representing Sanlorenzo Americas. During that period, I gained valuable experience in luxury yacht representation, European yacht construction, international clientele, new yacht opportunities and high-level brokerage transactions.

Working with one of the world's most respected yacht brands also gave me a deeper understanding of the expectations of sophisticated buyers and sellers. I learned that purchasing or selling a yacht is never simply a commercial transaction. It is a significant financial decision, an operational commitment and, in many cases, the realization of a personal ambition.

After five years of representing yacht sales, I decided to establish Ventura Yacht Sales as the next stage of my professional growth.

I created Ventura Yacht Sales to build an independent brokerage based on my own principles: personal attention, transparency, preparation, accountability and complete dedication to every client.

Going independent allowed me to remove the limitations of a larger corporate structure and become more directly involved in every stage of the transaction. My clients work with me personally, from the first conversation through negotiations, surveys, documentation, logistics, closing and final delivery.

Today, I bring together experience in yacht sales, vessel operations, marine logistics and management, with strong familiarity across both European and American boats and yachts.

I understand the differences in design philosophy, construction, engineering, equipment, layouts, market positioning and ownership considerations that distinguish European yacht builders from American manufacturers.

Whether I am representing a buyer or a seller, my responsibility is to protect the client's interests and manage the process with discipline and attention to detail.

For sellers, that means understanding the vessel, positioning it correctly, presenting it professionally, establishing a realistic strategy, qualifying buyers and negotiating from a position of preparation.

For buyers, it means identifying the right opportunities, evaluating the yacht beyond the listing, studying comparable sales, coordinating inspections, surveys and sea trials, reviewing documentation and managing the transaction through closing and delivery.

When you work with Ventura Yacht Sales, you are not simply hiring someone to advertise a yacht or arrange a showing.

You are working directly with an advisor who understands yachts from the perspective of sales, operations, logistics, management and ownership.

My objective is simple: to make the experience of buying or selling a yacht as informed, organized, transparent and professionally managed as possible, while ensuring that no important detail is overlooked.
