Yacht Sales Client:
To Whom It May Concern, As you know, I have had the distinct pleasure of working with Diego Gomez as the Yacht Broker on the sale of my 45’ power catamaran “Gizmo”. Diego and his team at Worth Avenue Yachts did an outstanding job of representing my interests and did a fantastic job of selling my boat. The “Gizmo” is an unusual boat, commissioned for the 2011 America’s Cup in San Francisco to use as Louis Vuitton’s VIP hospitality boat. We refit her to use as a long distance cruiser, so it was one of a kind. Diego immediately saw the unique and special aspects of the boat and assembled a terrific marketing package including a drone and on-board video with live models enjoying the boat, a beautifully professional photo album and a written description that made me want to keep the boat. Diego’s understanding and positioning of the boat’s unique aspects made it appeal to several special buyers so we got multiple offers and actually sold it for a substantial amount over the full asking price!! When does that happen on boats? It was due to Diego’s marketing, business and negotiating savvy that he created this wonderful outcome for me. Regrettably we had a problem after the sale, and Diego helped save the day again. The boat was built offshore and I had to pay US Customs before they would register the boat because the prior owner had not paid customs duty. Diego and his associate, Lindsey LaPrath, dove into the paperwork and helped me work with the outstanding Cris Wenthur Law Group to recover the full amount from the seller for the unpaid duty. Now I am selling one of my other boats, a Riva 60’ motor yacht, and of course I’ve asked Diego to represent me on the sale. He has been very helpful in getting surveys and work done, moving the boat around and has created another wonderful video/photo/description package on the Riva. I’m certain that with his help we will get another great result. If he can get over asking price again, I think we will forever refer to him as San (Saint) Diego. If you have a premium yacht to sell, don’t hesitate to work with Diego and his team at Worth Avenue Yachts. Sales Client GIZMO & BRAVISSIMOYacht Charter Client:
Good afternoon, sweet Shannon! You think of everything. Your sweet kindness and thoughtfulness is very much appreciated. This has been the trip of a lifetime. It was beyond magical and the most incredibly amazing experience of my life. From the boat, the crew, the food, being with my family, the beach-set ups, the fun games, to the essential oil towels we were greeted with every time we stepped on the boat, it was truly an experience of a lifetime. So many great memories! I’m still pinching myself. Thank you for everything!! 🏝🤩💍💖🙏🏻😍❤ Charter Client Testimonial from charter guests onboard the 2020 131′ Sunseeker yacht TC in the Bahamas.Yacht Charter Client:

RAMBLE ON ROSE has been our favorite charter yacht so far. They just keep getting better each year. Diving was amazing and the New Year’s Eve party was so much fun. The kids really enjoyed having their own yacht and traveling alongside us. We spent much of our time in the water diving, exploring, enjoying the water toys and quality family time onboard in the evenings. Thank you for putting together such a wonderful holiday for us.

YOU COULDN’T EVEN IMAGINE!!!!
Thanks for all your help!
I goofed up and failed to bring home our magnum of wine with the Custom Motor Yacht Label. Please ask the Captain if he could get us another bottle shipped out (empty or full it really is just for display in my cellar).

Yacht Charter Client Feedback on a SHE’S A 10 Yacht Charter:
“Thank you for all the help and the great recommendation. She’s a 10 (the boat). They’re a 10 (the staff). He’s a 10 (the captain). Honestly, both of our families have been on a yachts before and this was our favorite – hands down. Thanks for everything!”
Yacht Purchase Client:
“I wanted to thank you personally for having been the one that got this whole thing jumpstarted, for having led the way and having got me and family into this adventure. I have a bit of an aversion to yacht brokers, mostly because I deal with them all the time in my line of work (I was a broker early in my career). But you are one of the few that are of a different type. I know you were absolutely key in getting us the deal we got, which was what finally convinced me to go ahead. Even though I was aware that this was going to turn out to be a great yacht, I am a sucker for deals and almost never do anything without some sort of economic advantage. Anyways, numbers aside I am glad we got to meet and work together on this build, and even though it may sound corny, you have a place in our hearts. Consider me a friend.”
