Born in North Wales, UK, a life in the yachting industry was never on Yacht Broker Philip Bell's horizon while studying business and marketing in college, but a summer of traveling through Europe changed his life forever. Having a natural talent and understanding for engineering, while traveling through the Mediterranean, he stumbled across a yacht looking for some help in the engine room, jumped aboard and never looked back. Philip spent the subsequent 12 years quickly progressing to chief engineer and traveling the globe aboard some of the industry's largest private and charter yachts. During this time Philip also completed various new build projects as a build engineer and project manager, as well as multiple major refit projects and consulting on new build concepts and designs.
Philip then moved ashore to combine his engineering and technical knowledge with his marketing and business roots culminating in his career as a yacht broker. Thanks to his vast experience, he is able to lead his clients through each stage of ownership, from finding and purchasing the perfect yacht to effectively marketing and selling it. Holding his professional brokerage license in Florida, his diverse knowledge and background make people feel at ease when making crucial decisions. Philip strives to maintain a successful lifelong relationship with his clients, ensuring a stress free and fun experience with yachting.
