This year marks Worth Avenue Yachts’ 10th anniversary. Founded in 2011 by Michael Mahan and Brian Tansey, Worth Avenue Yachts has established the industry standard for advancing the team approach and providing unparalleled service to our clients. A testament to this success is the large number of industry-leading professionals that make up the Worth Avenue Yachts team.
The humble beginnings of Worth Avenue Yachts originate at our flagship office in Palm Beach, Florida. The iconic Avenue is in the midst of an enchanting resort destination with European sophistication and impeccable style and grace. The location is neighbored by some of the World’s most recognized brands including Chanel, Gucci, Louis Vuitton, Salvatore Ferragamo and Hermes, lending to its unparalleled legacy of fine customer service, a characteristic the Worth Avenue Yachts team prides themselves on. Worth Avenue is more than just a name, it is an experience, a representation of a lifestyle. Over the last ten years our brand has built upon this classic grace, opening offices down the Florida coast and up the west coast to Seattle, Washington, over to the eastern seaboard in Newport, Rhode Island and across the pond to the French Riviera in the Principality of Monaco.
Expanding our reach with brick-and-mortar showrooms to some of the most famous yachting destinations was just the beginning. Our strength has always been in our illustrious team. 49 individuals that are well-respected and admired for their achievements make up this tight-knit group. Spanning expertise over 5 niche services, some overlapping in specialties, we have always worked together as a single unit for a common goal. Each team member, engrained in yachting from a young age in one way or another, sharing their knowledge with our valuated clients to provide the very best service in yacht sales, charter and new yacht construction. Congratulations and thank you to all of you as we celebrate together, a decade of yachting excellence.
