BIOGRAPHY: Tony Smith

Tony grew up boating on Lake Michigan, spending summer weekends waterskiing and exploring the Great Lakes. After graduating from Purdue University as an electrical engineer, he went into boating more seriously following his desire to cruise on the open ocean.  

Splitting his time in technology sales, between Florida and California, he decided to start a Yacht Charter company on each coast, using this time to obtain his 100 Ton Master Captain's License.  

Tony now focuses on Luxury Catamarans, Motor Yachts, and Mega Yachts. He is Denison Brand Manager for Silver Yachts and specializes in the SilverCat Luxury Power Catamarans from 22 – 36 Meters ( 70 – 120ft ). As such, Tony is a regular at the Cannes and Monaco Yacht Shows.  Primarily representing VIP Buyers, Tony is very skilled in helping clients define their mission and selecting the correct yacht. As a 100 Ton Master Captain and previously owning two charter yacht companies, he can advise on the pros & cons of Chartering your vessel.  

As an avid boater and owner of several Sailing and Power Yachts, Tony is very familiar with the Survey, Sea Trial, and Mechanical Inspection for various sizes and range of vessels. Acting as a trusted advisor, Tony treats every client transaction with the same care and attention to detail as his personal investments, so Tony’s clients are very well advised and taken care of.  

With over 20,000 followers on Social Media, Tony and his team are very active on YouTube and Instagram featuring the latest in yachting innovations. You can find him online as the Florida Yacht Pro, @FLYachtPro. Please join and subscribe for more updates from Tony.
