The Family Office Philosophy

The Superyacht Partners, with a combined experience of over 100 years in the yachting industry, decided the time was right to take a new approach.

Not Just Another Yachting Company

At Superyacht Partners, we've embraced a philosophy that mirrors the comprehensive approach of a family office. We prioritise our clients' best interests, offering informed opinions rather than merely telling them what they want to hear. Trust and confidentiality are paramount, underpinning our long-term relationships with clients. Our experienced team, with a robust network and industry respect, negotiates the best results for our clients while safeguarding their privacy and assets.

With over 100 years of combined experience in the yachting industry, we understand that exceptional service for Ultra High Net Worth (UHNW) clients requires a unique approach. At The Superyacht Partners, we prioritize quality over quantity, offering a boutique family office experience that larger companies simply can't match.

What our philosophy means to each broker?

Matt Albert

"

As one of the founding partners at Superyacht Partners I decided that I wanted to mirror the philosophy of the Family Office. To me this meant focussing on what would best serve our clients; a small highly skilled, highly experienced, multi-disciplined team combining their skills in a positive, dynamic working environment focussing their efforts on exceeding clients expectations and building long term trust based relationships.

When Matt and I set up Superyacht Partners we knew we wanted to avoid the traditional brokerage model and focus instead on everyone in the team working together to manage the clients best interests in an integrated manner so that our clients can talk to anyone on the team about any part of their yachting requirements.

My upbringing has brought me in to constant contact with Family Offices and the manner in which they operate. It is a pleasure to be part of a brokerage house that puts that Family Office ethos in to practice.

At Superyacht Partners we strive to share knowledge and work together as a team to ensure the best outcomes for our clients. In the short term this may mean less than optimum financial gain for us but in the long term our clients recognise this and remain loyal clients long after they have bought or sold their first yacht with us.

The Family Office philosophy aligns well with my own personal philosophy. Onboard it is always everyone's responsibility to cover their crew mates and in the office we all have different strengths and experiences. Some are stronger in particular areas of expertise than others and it's great to know you can always reach out to a colleague. If I find I have not come across a particular situation previously, I know one of my colleagues certainly will have.

I've been working with Matt and Will since before they even started Superyacht Partners. I knew as soon as they set up their own brokerage that I would be joining them. From day one it felt like we were really doing something different.

As I'm in charge of the money, I see first hand how everyone collaborates. I might get expenses and invoices from 4 or 5 different members of the team related to the same boat. That tells me that they are all working towards a common goal on behalf of the client.
