Estelle's first boating experience was crossing the Atlantic from England to America aboard the original Queen Elizabeth in 1962. Born in England and raised on Long Island (New York), she relocated to South Florida in 1979. Estelle worked previously in commercial property management, but decided to cross over to the yacht brokerage business in 1997 and began her career as a broker's assistant for HMY Yacht Sales, Inc. After several years she was promoted to Office Manager, a position she held until February of 2006, when an opportunity for growth presented itself at The Marine Group and she decided to come on board. Having come from a Paralegal background, she enjoys keeping up with the legal aspects of the yacht brokerage business by attending the Yacht Sales and the Law Seminars each year. The part of this business that Estelle enjoys the most is the interaction with the clients. She believes that whether you are buying or selling a boat it should be a good experience for all.
