SCOTT MAYER BIOGRAPHY

While Scott was born and raised in the big seasonal sailing town of Chicago, he has found a home in beautiful Key West, FL where he now sails his Dufour 382GL year-round. A self-taught sailor from the young age of 10, Scott has since sailed throughout North America, including five 1st and 2nd place sectional finishes on the century-old Chicago Race to Mackinac Island.  And with over a decade of experience in strategic sourcing, contracting, and leadership roles within Fortune 500 companies, as well as serving as the COO of a private aircraft management/charter business, Scott brings a wealth of expertise to the maritime industry. In 2018, he founded Bluesail Yachting in Key West, where he successfully merged his skills in technology, process management, customer service, and innovation with his passion for sailing.

Under Scott’s leadership, Bluesail quickly established a reputation for exceptional customer service, 5-star yacht charter experiences, and sailing training focused almost exclusively on current and future boat owners, earning numerous awards and accolades over the years. Committed to driving positive change in the industry, Scott continually strives to enhance the boating experience for his clients and pushes the boundaries of what’s possible.

Now, as a member of the Just Catamarans Sales team, Scott is dedicated to revolutionizing the maritime brokerage industry. With his unwavering commitment to integrity, transparency, and client satisfaction, Scott aims to provide a seamless and personalized yacht purchasing experience. Drawing upon his extensive knowledge of tax regulations, boat maintenance, and ownership costs, Scott offers unparalleled expertise to guide clients through every aspect of boat ownership.

CLIENT TESTIMONIALS ABOUT SCOTT MAYER

“I am writing to express my heartfelt gratitude and appreciation for the exceptional service provided by Scott Mayer in the sale of my yacht. From the beginning, Scott has demonstrated a level of dedication and professionalism that far exceeded my expectations.

Scott Mayer went above and beyond in every aspect of the process. Not only did he find, negotiate and secure an agreement with a potential buyer (while I was midway sailing in challenging seas from Tortola to the U.S.), but also arranged temporary mooring for my yacht in a location it could be surveyed. This was no small feat and speaks volumes about his commitment and expertise.

Throughout the entire transaction, Scott was always available providing timely updates, and addressing any concerns I had. His extensive knowledge of the market and attention to detail ensured that everything went smoothly, even under less than ideal circumstances.

I cannot recommend Scott Mayer highly enough. He truly went the extra mile to ensure a successful sale, and I’m incredibly grateful for his hard work and dedication.”

“First and foremost, we want to thank you for having given us the opportunity to have Scott Mayer as our Broker.
 
Sonia and I started our catamaran search about 2 years ago. Our plans and dreams were to find a 45′ to 50′ newer catamaran that could allow us to travel the world comfortably and safely.
 
Choosing a yacht broker is a daunting task given the magnitude to this type of significant purchase. We spent a lot of time researching brokerage firms, scouring cruiser forums and multiple social media feeds for suggestions. Through this research we concluded that Just Catamarans would be the right brokerage for us. Now that we have successfully gone through the process of searching and ultimately finding our dream boat, a 2019 Fountaine Pajot Saona 47, we are so incredibly glad we made our choice to work with Just Catamarans.
 
Of particular note is the exceptional experience we had with Scott. We can’t thank him enough for all his patience, knowledge, and understanding as we zeroed in on the boat of our dreams. Working closely with him, we quickly came to feel a sense of trust and comfort in knowing that he was overseeing this transaction.
 
Purchasing a boat internationally brings another level of challenges navigating the bureaucracy of laws in multiple jurisdictions. Scott brought in a dedicated YachtCloser team to help with the daunting task of dealing with all the legal paperwork involved with the new registration in Canada and de-registering from the US.
 
Not only have Sonia and I become the new owners of our dream boat, we have also started the next chapter of our lives.  We cannot thank Scott enough for his professionalism, knowledge and expertise in guiding us through this process.
 
It is without any hesitation that we will highly recommend Scott Mayer to anyone looking for a Broker to represent them in a purchase of a boat.”

“We had the pleasure of working with Scott Mayer as our boat broker, and we couldn’t have been more impressed. We met Scott after purchasing our boat in Key West, and from the start, he was incredibly helpful and knowledgeable. As newcomers to boat ownership and sailing, Scott provided invaluable insight and guidance, always steering us in the right direction.

Scott’s honesty and upfront approach were refreshing. He took the time to explain the intricacies of boat ownership, ensuring we understood the process and felt confident navigating the waters of boat ownership. Even as we sailed to Annapolis, MD, Scott remained a reliable resource, offering advice and connecting us with others in his network.

When the time came to sell our boat, there was no question that Scott was the right person for the job. He took the time to understand our goals and timeline, developing a comprehensive marketing plan. Thanks to his expertise, we were under contract within a week of listing, and the deal closed smoothly, even with a last-minute issue with one of the engines.

Scott’s professionalism and dedication to his clients are unmatched. As a full-time broker, he is committed to ensuring a seamless buying or selling experience. If you’re in the market for a boat or looking to sell, Scott Mayer is the broker you want in your corner

“We’ve been looking for a cat for a long time.  In the process we’re talked to and tried to work with many brokers.  Surprising how many won’t even return your call or will even lie to you. 

Scott Mayer was a true breath of fresh air.  He was by far the best broker we’ve ever dealt with.  He is covers the details, never acts like you asked a dumb question and does what he says he will.  He knows boats and genuinely cares about taking care of his clients.  You can’t go wrong if you need help looking for a cat!”

“We just closed on our catamaran that Scott Mayer brokered. We bought and sold many boats over 40 years and by far the best broker!
By far the best broker we have ever used
He traveled to the Bahamas to look at one project boat that was too much of a project for us
He continued to stand by us as we kept looking.
Really impressed since we are looking at inexpensive boats so not much money for him compared to the million dollar boats out there
My husband likes to talk a lot about the boat and Scott spent so very much time talking with him !
Any time Jim called he put everything aside to listen and advise him. Always he had great advise which we are so grateful for!
Even though the boat is closed Scott is still helping us get the moved to the boatyard in Ft Pierce and helping us with the difficult insurance market
It was a pleasure working with Scott and we would recommend him always!”

“Good afternoon, I am Mr. Kamal Belaid, who bought through your company and through your agent Scott Mayer the Maxim 380 Catamaran in the Bahamas. I want to congratulate your company and your agent Scott for the professional work you have done.
 
He accompanied me from the beginning to the end, he found me a super hotel and the transportation from the hotel to the marina, he helped me with the owner of the boat so that he could fix all the points that were not right and buy the piece that was missing in Miami and send it to me my house, he helped me with all the paperwork for the purchase documents, I found a good notary with a good price in the Bahamas, he helped me with the registration documents in Poland with one of your agents in Miami who should not take long to arrive and I was invited to dinner.
 
For all that I congratulate you and I am very grateful and I wish you prosperity in your work and in your life, thank you.”

“Working with Scott was an absolute pleasure and he went above and beyond to ensure that the entire selling process was seamless, stress-free, and successful (and even fun!). From the very beginning, Scott made himself available to answer any questions and provide assistance every day of the week, at all hours. Scott was always willing to go out of his way to help with anything I needed, no matter how big or small the task. His level of commitment and dedication is truly remarkable and was greatly appreciated. Scott’s expertise and knowledge of the yacht industry are unparalleled, and he was able to make a complicated process simple and transparent. He provided clear and concise explanations throughout the entire process, and I felt fully informed and confident in my decisions thanks to his guidance.

Scott’s patience with difficult buyers was impressive and far exceeded my own. There is no way I could have handled as many inquiries as he did, and dealt with the difficult personalities that he effortlessly handled. Ultimately it was his excellent social and negotiation skills that enabled Scott to find me the perfect buyer for my boat, negotiate a great price, and close the deal quickly. I could not have been happier with the outcome, and it was all thanks to Scott’s hard work, talent, and dedication.

Overall, I cannot recommend Scott Mayer enough. His professionalism, expertise, and commitment to his clients are second to none, and I would not hesitate to work with him again in the future. Thank you, Scott, for making the entire process a true pleasure!”
