With a sales office featuring sweeping views of Downtown San Diego, and a premier new boat showroom dock, we have the best brokers in Southern California ready to get you aboard the boat of your dreams.

Hailing from Alaska, Bradley grew up around boats, beginning with lakes and then on Prince William Sound where the family had a 30’ Californian, The Great Escape. Years later, he experienced those same waters aboard the 53’ Delta Marine, Purse Seiner, F/V Alaskan Spirit, fishing for salmon out of Valdez. An obsession with waterskiing, despite the cold waters of Alaska, entailed many hours on and behind an assortment of water ski boats, over the years. This passion continued post college and after a short stint of competition skiing, in Florida, he joined Sea World of Texas, performing in water ski shows there. An offer to perform at a show in Germany allowed him to explore Europe. It was in Portofino, Italy, where he learned that many yachts cross the Atlantic to get to the warmer climes of the Caribbean, at the end of the Mediterranean Summer. He decided to forgo his plane ticket home and joined a classic 12 meter, Seven Seas, racing in the late summer classic series, held in various ports around the Med. After that he joined the ketch, Oceana, a 71’ Ocean, to sail across the Atlantic, to Antigua. That crossing gave Bradley the true taste of blue water sailing and he spent the next few years racing and delivering boats around the world. A trip across the Pacific allowed him to discover the beauty of New Zealand, where he jumped ship and for the next 17 years made the mountain town of Queenstown, his home. Bradley now lives in Los Angeles, close to Marina del Rey, where he and his wife, Kismet, enjoy exploring Santa Monica Bay, on Saida, a Jeanneau 349, that they sailed down from San Francisco together, Bradley’s favorite passage of all. Beyond the water, Bradley’s experience as the Executive Producer/Owner of one of the top international service production companies, in New Zealand and as a Commercial Real Estate Broker in Los Angeles, allows him to negotiate the process of buying and selling yachts seamlessly.
