At Bluenose Yacht Sales, we believe that yachting is far more than a transaction—it’s a gateway to adventure, freedom, and lifelong memories on the water. Located in vibrant boating hubs such as Boston, Portsmouth, Newport, and Essex, our dealership and brokerage proudly serve sailors and powerboat enthusiasts across New England and beyond. We’re not simply in the business of selling boats; we’re devoted to helping each client discover a vessel that perfectly aligns with their passions and lifestyle. Our team consists of seasoned sailors and power boaters who share a love for the sea and an unwavering commitment to service and integrity.
With years of collective experience, Bluenose Yacht Sales has become a trusted partner for clients seeking new yachts, brokerage opportunities, or tailored services, including full boat commissioning, winter storage, fiberglass repairs, custom system installations, and on-site mobile servicing. We understand that buying or selling a boat involves more than just price—it’s about ensuring every detail is handled professionally and with care. Our involvement doesn’t end at the point of sale; we remain a resource for guidance on surveys, paperwork, maintenance, and all aspects of yacht ownership. At Bluenose Yacht Sales, we strive to keep the process enjoyable, transparent, and driven by your best interests, ensuring your boating journey begins—and continues—with confidence.
Deep Nautical Heritage
Our story is woven into the fabric of North American maritime history. Bluenose Yacht Sales carries the name and spirit of the iconic Bluenose Schooner, a vessel renowned for over two decades as the fastest schooner afloat. That legacy fuels our commitment to fairness, excellence, and exceptional service. Our managing partner, Glenn Walters, has a personal family connection to this legend, instilling in our company a deep respect for yachting tradition and a drive to uphold those values in every client relationship.
Comprehensive Yacht Services
Our expertise extends far beyond buying and selling boats. We offer a full suite of yacht services to keep your vessel in prime condition. From seasonal commissioning, engine servicing, fiberglass repairs, and AWLGRIP finishing to custom systems installations and mobile workshop services, we cover every aspect of yacht ownership. This integrated approach ensures you have a single trusted partner for all your boating needs, reducing stress and increasing enjoyment on the water.
A Boutique Experience with Global Standards
Unlike large-scale operations, Bluenose Yacht Sales is deliberately small by design. We believe in maintaining a boutique approach where personalized service reigns supreme. Our team members are equity partners, not salespeople working on commissions. That means you work with professionals genuinely invested in delivering honest guidance, tailored solutions, and memorable boating experiences. Our connections and expertise span major global brands and the yachting market, ensuring you benefit from a worldwide network while receiving personalized attention.
