Leading the way in Global Web Based Yacht Sales & Marketing

32 years ago, American Yachts were amongst the first to embrace the internet in the yacht market and use it to bring buyers and sellers together across the Atlantic

Bringing Buyers and Sellers Together Across the Globe for Over 32 Years

With 32 years of International Heritage and an emphasis on unparalleled Local Service, American Yachts have become synonymous with the phrase "Globally Local"

American Yachts, "Globally Local"

Why choose just any Broker when you can rely on our WORLD CLASS SERVICE with a proven REPUTATION, which has provided consistently excellent service, for over 32 years. Whether you are looking for the most qualified Professional Local Yacht Broker, or are one of our Export Partners across the Globe, we invite you to discover the difference in choosing.

Simply the most important decision when buying your next yacht is which Brokerage will represent you. The value of the right professional experienced Broker that listens and understands your requirements, transcends all the other parts of the process and will determine your experience. Having a company that is large enough to have all the right representation but still being local and small enough to care will make all the difference, not just through the Buying process but for years to come.

Anyone can list your boat, it takes experience and cutting edge marketing tools with a staff committed to customer satisfaction to actually make her SELL. We don't just place a few ads and wait for yacht to sell itself, we have a team of Brokers who have an aggressive marketing strategy, tailor made just for you. From thoroughly knowing the product and the market, to driving advertising to the corners of the globe, the reach of our network and relationships, have the proven history of success.

Can't wait for us to broker your boat? Our marketing strategies will undoubtedly bring you the maximum amount for your vessel and we will connect you directly with an end purchaser in order to maximize your return. If you simply want your boat gone today we can give you a wholesale cash price for immediate payment. End your storage, repair and maintenance expenses today. We also buy boats in ANY condition (blown engines, etc.) that you may not otherwise be able to sell.

What Our Clients Say!

Our Dealership has been selling trades with confidence over the years for quick liquidity, they create less stress on the deal for us, period.

In the purchase of my new build 55, I needed to sell my current boat, and did not want the hassle of dealing with the survey/brokers, they made me an offer, and took the boat.

During Covid 19 our family moved to the West Coast and we needed to sell our 48 & 29, they gave us an offer the same day and transacted in a professional manner.

Honest, straightforward guys. Magnus provided excellent market reads and made the process effortless as a seller. Definitely using them when I'm back in the market.

CLIENT TESTIMONIALS

GREAT OUTFIT!

In short order the sales team of Sean Fenniman and Nicole Drost convinced me Allied Marine was the best choice over all other brokers.

Their attention to detail and prompt service outmatches their competition. They literally outworked other brokers and secured me as a loyal customer. What a relief to receive paperwork quickly and as promised. Would not hesitate to recommend this duo. ~Brian K.

PROFESSIONAL AND GREAT ATTENTION TO DETAIL!

I have purchased two boats from Sean Fenniman and Allied Marine in Stuart, FL. Both experiences were handled professionally and with great attention to detail. Making such a large purchase is stressful, however, this team understands those stresses and allows the purchaser to go through the process in their time, without any pressure or judgement. I give this group the highest recommendation. They have made my family's dream come true - twice! ~William W.

7 TRANSACTIONS (BUY AND SELL) IN THE PAST 7 YEARS ON BOATS WITH THEM!

I can't say enough about these people. I've had 7 transactions (buy and sell) in the past 7 years on boats with them. Every promise made was kept with special help like ... Sean Fenniman stayed up most of the night once working with a mechanic to address some survey issues that arose last minute to save the sale that would have fallen apart... Sean swapped a Garmin from his personal boat for my new faulty one so I could start my trip north once ... he personally cleaned a boat prior to a showing due to the vendor canceling the last minute. His Wife Tina helped me totally renovate 2 yachts, coordinating countless vendors. Tina offered to run to the registry in Florida for me when I was having an issue renewing online and followed up after to make sure I was okay. Nicole Brova Drost provided painless closings each time, chasing down issues before I even heard about them. I have too many examples to share here. They are without a doubt ... "super stars" ~William V.

ATTENTION TO DETAIL AND PROFESSIONALISM MADE THE DEAL COME TOGETHER EASILY!

I was in the market for a larger Sportfish and called Peter for additional information on his listing. Although the listed boat was under contract, Peter found one a little better equipped in the same price range. Sensing we should move quickly, Peter suggested we board right-away. We had only worked (together) a short while but Peter's understanding of the build, attention to detail and professionalism made the deal come together easily. We worked with the seller directly and carved out a deal during the showing that made sense. ~Pam E.

FUN PROJECT

From day one, Peter provided us with a great experience. Knowledge, foresight, comrade, and professionalism all made for a fun project acquiring our larger boat. At the onset of our relationship and vessel search, Peter stated, "This is a marathon not a sprint." With his help we won the race. Peter Kurki and Allied Marine made for an enjoyable experience purchasing our new vessel. We love our new boat. ~ Fred - Atlanta, Georgia

VISITED VESSELS BEFORE ENDORSING

Living in North Carolina we did not have direct access to the inventory of listings found in South Florida. Peter maintained a vigil on vessels he thought we would like in the South Florida market, visiting them for us before endorsing. Peter's knowledge and understanding of manufacturers, systems and performance made for a comfortable purchase. After a life-changing event, Peter then subsequently represented our vessel for sale and found us the buyer that was "meant to be." We had a pleasurable experience with Peter Kurki and Allied Marine, we would recommend to anyone who is in the market for a new or pre-owned vessel. ~ Lynn and Susan, Wilmington, North Carolina

DOCKED THE BOAT AT MY HOME

My career in law enforcement with Miami/Dade Marine Patrol provided me with many years of enjoyment on the water. When it was time to purchase my personal vessel I had the great pleasure of meeting Peter through social connections. We subsequently had a great time finding the vessel that suits me best. We saw a bunch of listings and worked with a strategy and plan to secure what was best. Peter returned all my calls, was always present and accounted for through the survey and closing. Peter then helped me personally to bring the boat home, docking her for the initial time. From beginning discussions of ownership to securing the lines on my home dock, Peter Kurki was an asset. Knowledgeable on boats and procedures and yachting culture, I felt comfortable with all his work. Peter is awesome, I'm confident people don't know how much heart he puts into making his clients happy! ~ Kevin D. - Stuart, Florida

ATTENTION TO DETAIL

I was in the market for a larger Sportfish and called Peter for additional information on his listing. Although the listed boat was under contract, Peter found one a little better equipped in the same price range. Sensing we should move quickly, Peter suggested we board right away. We had only worked a short while, but Peter's understanding of the build, attention to detail and professionalism made the deal come together easily. We worked with the seller directly and carved out a deal during the showing that made sense. Peter's quick response to questions and fundamental items kept me on the bite. Focus-driven purpose helps a buyer when she knows what she wants. I now have the boat I've dreamed of and a broker who delivers on his promise. ~ Pam - Wilmington, North Carolina

Unveiling the Tiara Yachts EX 54: A Comprehensive Review

• By Chris Caswell
• August 30, 2024

Tiara Yachts entered new territory with its EX 60 last year , and its EX 54 follows that same magic in a smaller package. Like the EX 60, the EX 54 has modular seating in the cockpit, allowing each owner to tailor the yacht to a specific mission.

My educated guess says that the Lounge module will be the most popular, with a pair of settees facing across a folding teak table. Not only does this setup make for great alfresco entertaining, but the aft settee also incorporates a sink, grill, fridge and optional ice maker across the transom.

The Adventure module has fishing written all over it, replacing the aft settee with more foot space and a console with five rod holders, tackle lockers, a cutting board and a sink.

The last module is the Glass Patio, which replaces the backrest of the aft settee with a laminated glass bulkhead so guests (and parents) can keep an eye on the watery action off the stern. I’d recommend the optional hydraulic platform (a 5-foot platform is standard) with steps descending into the water and built-in chocks to stow a tender. All the cockpit modules raise electrically to reveal a garage for water toys and gear.

Like many powerboats these days, the Tiara EX 54 has foldout hullsides to create extended cockpit space, but Tiara goes further with flush-mounted boarding doors on each side. This design makes for easy step-aboard access while leaving nothing to stub toes with the sides folded down.

Forward of the seating modules and up two steps on the mezzanine level is an aft-facing table with twin hassocks (with stowage). Forward of that and to port, with an electrically disappearing window, a pair of stools create a salon-facing bar. The adjacent two-panel sliding doors can open the salon entirely to the cockpit.

In the salon, which has a Herculan teak sole, a convertible dinette to port forms a berth by lowering the high-gloss teak table. (It’s the same size as the one on the EX 60.) The galley is fitted out for cruising, with a two-burner Kenyon induction cooktop, cookware, a microwave/convection oven, a two-drawer fridge and a stainless-steel sink. Behind the galley countertop is a pop-up 43-inch TV that faces the lounge. The absence of overhead cabinets makes for a panoramic view, with stowage in drawers and lockers.

Just forward, the skipper can use the sliding pilothouse door for easy side-deck access. This, along with a clever outboard sliding armrest on the Stidd double-wide helm seat, lets the skipper stand on the side deck and use the Volvo Penta joystick for docking. Overhead is a Webasto electric sunroof.

The dash is fitted with Volvo Penta’s Glass Cockpit, including two 22-inch Garmin GPSMap 8622 displays and a row of backlit buttons for systems. The equipment includes a Garmin autopilot, Fantom 54 radar, VHF radio and aft-facing cockpit camera.

Opposite the helm is a double-wide companion seat that, at the push of a button, slides aft so everyone can join in the action while running to the next waypoint. The seat also slides forward to create a U-shaped dinette. That companion seat has a console with an optional Garmin GPSMap 8622.

Step down into the airy, bright atrium from salon level, and a door leads forward from the foyer to the VIP stateroom with a walk-around island queen berth. It lifts to reveal lighted stowage for suitcases. A door allows private access to the guest head—also off the foyer—with a VacuFlush head and stall shower. Across the foyer is a second stateroom, ideally for kids, with bunk berths.

The full-beam owner’s stateroom is aft with 6-foot-​5-inch headroom and a queen-size pedestal berth. The EX 54 that I got aboard had the full bureau to starboard. (A settee is optional.) The space had 23 drawers for extended cruising, plus a cedar-lined hanging locker like the ones in the other staterooms. A GE washer-dryer was tucked away in the passageway to this stateroom, and the private head included a Lacava vessel sink, stowage and a stall shower.

Going forward on deck is made secure by solid coamings capped by stainless-steel rails. The bow area has a multiuse lounge with sun pads and a removable table. The all-chain windlass is tucked under a hatch, with a wired remote as well as helm controls. I liked the two walkways on each side of the windlass locker, allowing deck crew to look down securely on the anchor.

Power for the EX 54 is twin Volvo Penta IPS2 950 diesels paired to pod drives, and the engine room is clearly arranged for service techs or hands-on owners. A five-step ladder leads down from the cockpit, and everything from the oil changers and seacocks to the 13.5 kW Onan genset is readily accessible.

Underway, the EX 54 is pure fun. We started our runs in smooth water on the Intracoastal Waterway, where I checked a 33.7-knot top speed and indulged in some doughnuts and swoops. I recorded just 70 decibels at full throttle with the sunroof open, making conversation easy. Once offshore, the yacht’s fine entry and 14-degree transom deadrise handled the lumpy Gulf Stream, throwing spray far to the side and providing a smooth, predictable, stable ride. I didn’t need handrails, but I did take note that Tiara has provided a plethora of them, often neatly concealed (next to the forward sun pad, for example).

Whether for entertaining, cruising with friends, fishing or simply enjoying the water, the Tiara Yachts EX 54 can be tailored to fit many owners’ ideas of fun.  

This second-generation Volvo Penta diesel IPS2 950 pod-drive system punches out 750 hp, driving through a 1.7:1 gearbox with a jack shaft that allows the engines to sit closer to the center of the yacht. With Volvo’s P4 props, cruise speed was 26 knots for a range of about 300 nautical miles.  

Built To Take It

The EX 54 has a no-wood hull. The yacht’s hull, deck and topsides are backed by closed-cell foam coring that provides strength as well as soundproofing. A fiberglass grid supports the engines and interior, adding strength and rigidity. 

Garmin Glass Cockpit

Optimized for use with Volvo Penta power, this user-friendly interface combines navigation (a chart plotter, GPS, sonar and radar) with operations (engine data and multitouch systems screens). Preloaded with BlueChart G3 coastal charts, it provides detail to 1 foot with contours for fishing, as well as depth shading and shallow-water warnings.
