Captain Marcus Armenta

Marcus is a U.S. Coast Guard (USCG) veteran with 21 years of active service. During his USCG tenure he served as an Engineer on ships up to 378’ (115m), as a small boat Engineer, Crew and Operator, and completed two tours as a USCG Training Instructor (Small Boat Operations & Engineering Technical School). In addition, since leaving the USCG Marcus has been in the marine and yachting industry for nearly 13 years. This experience includes working as a Safety Director and FSO/CSO for a maritime company with multiple locations and 28 vessels, working yacht refit projects, and founding & operating his own boat services company. 

Marcus has an Associate’s degree from Thomas Edison University, and currently holds a U.S. Coast Guard 100-ton Near Coastal Masters License.  

Although Marcus grew up in the desert in Tucson, Arizona, his love of the water and boats started on lakes and has progressively grown through his years on the ocean landing him in Ft Lauderdale and the Florida Keys.  He has owned multiple boats of various size over the years, lived aboard a classic 1968 Hatteras 50’ motor yacht for over 5-years, operated small charter vessels and spent thousands of days on the water. 

Now Marcus is putting his love of the water, passion for boating, and his Engineering and Captain experience into helping others realize their passion for boating and love of the water too! Whether you are selling your boat, a first-time buyer, or looking to upgrade to your next dream yacht, Marcus puts his 30+ years of experience to work for you and provides guidance every step of the way.
