Sam Hosseini
I can’t recommend John Booysen with Aspire Yacht Sales in Fort Lauderdale highly enough. What started as a search for the right boat turned into an incredible experience thanks to him. Not only did he do a fantastic job helping me find the perfect vessel, but he went far beyond what you’d expect from a broker. John truly became a part of my learning curve. He took the time to teach me what it really means to own and care for a boat—everything from the fundamentals to the finer details that only an experienced captain would know. His patience, knowledge, and genuine passion made all the difference. He wasn’t just my broker—he was a captain, a mentor, and ultimately a friend. If you’re looking for someone who actually cares about your success and confidence on the water, John and Aspire Yacht Sales are the people you want on your side. He is the best you can find!!

John We want to thank you for all your support throughout this process When we first bought the WorldCat boat through you, we didn’t know you, and the experience was very positive. Now, after you sold our Tiara, you came through with flying colors. You were always available to take our calls, gave us honest advice, recomended good mechanics and never made us feel pressured. Thank you again for your professionalism and support. You are a gentleman and a scholar!
William McCleneghen
Thank you to John Booysen and the team at Aspire Yacht Sales for going way and above in every aspect of my Tiara purchase. From the first moment that I spoke to John …. And the way thru the closing (and beyond), John was absolutely amazing. I would recommend him and his team to anyway that is looking to buy a boat/yacht. I feel like John jumped through hoops for me….. we took delivery yesterday…. And his follow through has been fantastic. John made this transaction a very pleasant one for both myself and the seller. THANK YOU JOHN!

I Ben Abernathy have worked with Aspire Yacht Sales on a number of occasions to buy and sell my boats. The Principal, John Booysen is knowledgeable of all parts of the search and transaction process. He is pleasure to work with and I consider him as one of my good friends as well.
Justin Silverstein
I had a great experience working with John Booysen at Aspire Yacht Sales. He went above and beyond—not just during the sale, but after as well—helping with transport, export, and post-purchase upgrades. He was always available, patient, and truly trustworthy throughout a tough negotiation. Marissa, the closing agent, was also excellent—working closely with John to ensure everything went smoothly from start to finish.

You will never find a boat broker who is more interested in your satisfaction/happiness than his profit/commission-great guy this is my third boat from John a 32 ft Intrepid 82ft Sunseeker and 84ft
Jeffrey S
Thank you very much John, you did a great job getting me a buyer and handled all aspects of the sale perfectly. Thank you for holding the buyers hand and getting him through all of his various hurdles, financing/insurance and getting this closed on a timely basis. You are the best.
Steve
It was a pleasure dealing with John at Aspire Yachts, knowledgeable and dedicated, not often both vendor and purchaser are both pleased with the broker, John guided both parties through the process and got the transaction completed to everyones satisfaction, I highly recommend him.
Brent Campbell
Your need a broker that you can trust! John has been my broker for 7 transactions spanning 20+ years. You will. believe in Capt John in your first conversation. He always put my best interest before his. Isn't that what great captains do?
Robert Stafford
I was very fortunate to purchase a boat from Aspire Yacht Sales and would highly recommend them hands down to be your partner whether selling or buying a boat over any other broker in the industry. Their lead person and president that I used was John Booysen, and he was not only an exceptional broker, but very knowledgeable on boats and was definitely an expert in the boating industry. I found out later that he also is an experienced captain with decades of yachting experience at sea. That is invaluable and a most when using a broker to purchase or sell a boat with such complexities, unknowns and variables involved. He knew everything about the boat. For example, before he listed the boat, he inspected it thoroughly and nothing came back from the survey 3 weeks later that he didn't already know. That showed his experience and honesty with the listing. There were zero surprises. He also has your back and isn't just trying to make a quick sale. In the service industry, John is definitely what you call an exceptional "full service" broker from the beginning to the end. Heck, he is still helping me with my new boat, and we closed on the purchase almost 3 months ago !! He has truly gone above and beyond. John is also very responsive, extremely organized and gets it all done with no follow up and very helpful in referring the right contacts for title work (definitely do and take his advice on) and everything else that the boat may need. He was actually the one that followed up with me every day. More importantly, he's a great guy, direct and honest. Again, I would highly recommend him and his Company, Aspire Yacht Sales, whether purchasing or selling any type of boat. He is a true gentleman and professional, and it won't matter if you have a $50k or $1 million plus boat. You'll get the same first class treatment.
Ray Trevino
John was a great asset and salesman. He took charge and laid out a sales strategy that brought significant interest in potential prospects. His process vetted out those truly interested vs those who were there just to kick the tires. While it seemed a long time was actually very short in the sport fish market. As we went through the process he insured that my position was protected from beginning to close. It was very little work on my part and the closure went quickly and efficiently. I can’t thank him enough for helping to expedite the transaction. If your looking to sell or buy I would highly recommend him.
Michael Neuman
Marcus Armenta, where do I start? This gentleman is where you want to start when you decide to get your perfect boat or yacht. He worked with us for a year. He listened to me and understood our needs. He was always available to preview a boat no matter its location. I lived on the Gulf side of Fla and he worked the East coast and keys. It gave us a wide area to search. Finally a yacht came on the market that was 24 hrs old and he got me aboard almost immediately. Our yacht is amazing. Not only was he patient, but became a family friend and followed up long after we took delivery. If you’re in the market to sell or buy, please consider Marcus.
Jordanna Windemiller
Marcus helped us find the perfect boat from across the country and made the whole process easy and enjoyable! We’d recommend Aspire Yacht Sales to anyone looking for their next adventure!
Aileen Logan
We worked with Marcus Armenta. He was fabulous! It took us almost a year to find the right boat and Marcus was patient, and very helpful. He didn’t just try to push us to buy. He respected our specific needs. He was so friendly and we totally trusted him. He has the highest integrity and with his experience he is very knowledgeable. I would recommend him to anyone looking for the perfect experience when buying a boat.
Tara Stone
Aspire Yacht Sales was with us 100% of the time it took to purchase our yacht. Marcus Armenta explained everything in complete detail, and communicated with us daily. We will always call them for any future purchases. We could not ask for better!
Kate Browning
Thank you Marcus Armenta. You went above and beyond to help us sell our boat. You made getting through the paperwork process so much easier.
Rosana Dipp

We have never met a seller so concerned about everything, and ready to help, even after the sale is completed . He always answers calls at any time of the day and night. Simply excellent service. We recommend it 100%. Thank you John!!!

We worked with Marcus for quite some time before he found us the perfect boat. I've never seen anyone quite put up with the amount of emails I sent to him on a daily basis!!. He was truly amazing and made the buying process smooth and easy. This was our starter boat and when we are ready to upgrade he will be our first call!
Nicolle Profenno
My husband and I just purchased a sailing catamaran from Aspire Yacht Sales. Lucky for us, we had Marcus as our broker. He was able to swiftly navigate all the complexities that popped up throughout our buying process and always reassured us that everything would be taken care of. He displayed punctuality, professionalism, stellar communication skills and was always very personable. We’re extremely happy with our buying experience and highly recommend Aspire Yacht Sales with Marcus as your broker!!
Jennifer Spitznogle
I had a very good experience with Marcus and Aspire Yacht Sales. He walked me through the entire buying process and helped me understand what to expect. My buying process had some unusual incidents happen but through it all Marcus was always quick to return my calls or emails and made sure that everything happened in both my best interest and the sellers. I am now the happy owner of this 1968 50’ Hatteras No Regrets.

Yacht Market News & Insights
Aspire Yacht Sales is thrilled to announce the successful sale of a beautiful 35-foot Tiara, now headed to her new home in Boca Raton, Florida. Congratulations to Billy on this outstanding acquisition — and on the countless adventures that lie ahead.
A Proven Performer Finds Her Next Chapter
The Tiara nameplate has long been synonymous with quality construction, reliable performance, and timeless design — and this 35-footer is no exception. Built to handle everything from calm intracoastal cruising to confident offshore runs, this vessel represents the very best of what Tiara has to offer. With her sale closing on March 9, 2025, she’s now ready to write her next chapter under Billy’s care on the sparkling waters of South Florida.
Boca Raton — A Boater’s Paradise
There are few places better suited for yacht ownership than Boca Raton. Nestled between the Intracoastal Waterway and the Atlantic Ocean, it offers world-class marina facilities, easy access to the Bahamas, and some of the most beautiful cruising grounds on the Eastern Seaboard. Whether Billy is planning weekend getaways to the Keys, fishing excursions in the Gulf Stream, or relaxed sunset cruises along the coast, this Tiara is perfectly positioned for it all.
Fair Winds and Following Seas
On behalf of the entire Aspire Yacht Sales team, we want to wish Billy nothing but smooth seas, spectacular sunsets, and unforgettable memories aboard his new Tiara. There’s something truly special about finding the right boat — and we’re honored to have played a part in making this one happen.
Congratulations, Billy. The water is calling, and adventure awaits.
Aspire Yacht Sales is proud to announce the delivery of a brand-new 2025 Nor-Tech 340 Sport, powered by triple Mercury 400hp outboards, to her new owner. Delivered in January 2026, this stunning center console is already making waves on the water.
Built for Speed and Built to Last
Nor-Tech has earned a legendary reputation in the high-performance boating world, and the 340 Sport is a prime example of why. With a deep-V hull designed for razor-sharp handling and a smooth, dry ride even in rough conditions, this 34-footer is engineered for boaters who demand the best. Triple Mercury 400hp Verado outboards deliver breathtaking acceleration and top-end speed, while maintaining the reliability and efficiency that Mercury is known for. Whether running offshore, island-hopping, or enjoying a spirited cruise, this Nor-Tech is purpose-built to thrill.
Power Meets Luxury
The 340 Sport is as refined as she is fast. From the meticulously finished helm station with premium electronics to the spacious bow seating and aft lounge areas, every detail has been considered. The build quality is unmistakable: hand-laid fiberglass, stainless steel hardware, and custom upholstery throughout. This is a boat that turns heads at the dock and leaves everything behind on the water.
A New Chapter Begins
On behalf of the entire Aspire Yacht Sales team, congratulations to the new owner on this incredible acquisition. A brand-new Nor-Tech with triple 400s is a dream setup, and we are honored to have been part of making it happen. Here is to endless days of sun, speed, and saltwater ahead.
Fair winds and fast runs — the adventure starts now.
Aspire Yacht Sales is proud to welcome Captain Mike Neuman to our growing team. Based in Punta Gorda, Florida, Mike brings a lifetime of maritime expertise, an unmatched passion for the water, and a family legacy that stretches back more than a century.
A Maritime Legacy Over a Century in the Making
Captain Mike Neuman’s connection to the sea didn’t begin with a career choice — it began with a birthright. Mike is a fourth-generation mariner, born into a family that founded and operated a historic ferry boat and cruise business on Lake Erie, Ohio, in 1907. That century-old tradition of seamanship, service, and respect for the water runs through everything Mike does, and it’s a heritage he carries forward with unmistakable pride.
Two Decades of Professional Command
With more than 20 years of service as a Captain in the United States Merchant Marines, Mike has built a career defined by precision, professionalism, and an unwavering commitment to excellence. He holds an Unlimited Master’s License and First-Class Pilot endorsement — credentials that reflect the highest level of competence and trust in the maritime industry. Throughout his distinguished career, he commanded vessels of all sizes, earning the deep respect of peers and crew members alike.
Beyond his commercial career, Mike also served as a private yacht captain for a family operating two 63-foot yachts, seamlessly bridging the worlds of professional maritime operations and luxury yachting. That dual perspective gives him a rare understanding of what discerning yacht owners value most — reliability, expertise, and a captain’s intuition that only comes from decades on the water.
Life on the Water
Today, Mike and his wife call Punta Gorda Isles home, where they continue to enjoy the boating lifestyle aboard their own 45-foot yacht. For Mike, the ocean has never been just a profession — it’s a lifelong love affair that shapes every aspect of his life. He often jokes that he loves boats so much, he even named his daughter “Marina.”
A Perfect Fit for Aspire
Captain Mike Neuman’s enduring passion for the sea and his dedication to the art of boating make him a true ambassador of the yachting lifestyle — and a natural addition to the Aspire Yacht Sales family. His unparalleled experience, authentic love for the water, and genuine desire to help others find their perfect vessel will be a tremendous asset to our clients across Southwest Florida and beyond.
We couldn’t be more excited to have Mike on board. Welcome to the team, Captain.

Aspire Yacht Sales is thrilled to announce the successful January 2026 delivery of Maximus, a stunning new Princess S65 — one of the most anticipated yachts in the Princess Yachts lineup.
A New Chapter for an Iconic Nameplate
The Princess S65 continues to push the boundaries of what a sport yacht can be, and Maximus is a prime example. With her sculpted hull lines, aggressive stance, and deep-V hull engineered for offshore performance, she commands attention from the moment she leaves the dock. Beneath the sleek exterior lies a yacht built for serious cruising — capable of delivering both thrilling speed and refined comfort in equal measure.
Design That Speaks for Itself
Step aboard Maximus and the Princess pedigree is immediately evident. Expansive social areas flow seamlessly from the open cockpit through the salon, creating an entertainer’s dream. The flybridge offers panoramic views and a second helm station, while below deck, luxurious staterooms provide the kind of privacy and comfort you’d expect from a yacht of this caliber.
Every surface, every detail — from the hand-stitched upholstery to the precision-fit joinery — reflects the craftsmanship that has made Princess Yachts one of the most respected builders in the world.
Congratulations to the New Owner
Aspire Yacht Sales is proud to have been part of this journey. We congratulate the owner of Maximus and wish them many safe, memorable adventures ahead — filled with unforgettable moments on the water with family and friends.

Amejaie II, a well-kept 35′ Tiara Express, has just received a significant price reduction — making her an outstanding value for buyers seeking a proven, reliable express cruiser with timeless appeal.
A Classic That Delivers
Built by Tiara Yachts, the 3500 Express has long been celebrated for its solid construction, smooth ride, and practical layout. Amejaie II carries on that tradition beautifully. Her deep-V hull cuts confidently through chop, delivering the kind of stable, predictable performance that inspires confidence whether you’re running offshore or cruising the Intracoastal.
Designed for Life on the Water
On deck, the cockpit offers generous space for fishing, diving, or simply relaxing with friends. The helm station is well-appointed with clear sightlines and intuitive instrumentation. Below, the cabin provides comfortable accommodations — a welcoming retreat after a long day on the water, with a full galley, enclosed head, and sleeping for the whole family.
What sets the Tiara 3500 apart is the balance: she’s big enough to handle serious offshore conditions, yet manageable enough for a couple or small crew to operate with ease. That versatility is hard to find, and it’s exactly what has made this model a favorite among experienced boaters for decades.
Don’t Miss This Opportunity
With this new price reduction, Amejaie II represents exceptional value in her class. Well-maintained and ready for her next chapter, she’s waiting for the right buyer to take the helm.

Built for Adventure

Another Successful Sale by Aspire
Aspire Yacht Sales is proud to have facilitated this transaction, connecting the right buyer with a truly exceptional yacht. We wish the new owner fair winds and following seas as Captivator embarks on her next great voyage.

Aspire Yacht Sales is proud to present a rare opportunity in the luxury yacht market — a stunning 82-foot Sunseeker Manhattan 80, known as “Bella,” now available at a newly reduced price. This is a vessel that commands attention wherever she goes, and at her new asking price, she represents exceptional value for the discerning buyer.
Sunseeker Excellence at an Exceptional Value
The Sunseeker Manhattan 80 has long been regarded as one of the finest flybridge motor yachts in her class. “Bella” exemplifies everything the nameplate stands for — bold British design, meticulous craftsmanship, and an unmistakable presence on the water. Originally built to the highest specifications, she offers the kind of volume, performance, and luxury that few yachts in this size range can match. With her recent price reduction, she’s now positioned as one of the most compelling offerings on the brokerage market.
Space, Style, and Comfort
Step aboard “Bella” and the sense of scale is immediately apparent. Her four-stateroom, four-head layout provides generous accommodations for owners and guests alike, while the full-beam master suite is a true retreat — bathed in natural light and finished to the standard you’d expect from Sunseeker’s master craftsmen. The main salon is expansive and elegantly appointed, flowing seamlessly to a well-equipped galley and a formal dining area that’s perfect for entertaining. On the flybridge, you’ll find one of the most impressive outdoor living spaces in her class — complete with a wet bar, sun pads, and panoramic views that make every cruise feel like an event.
A Rare Opportunity
Yachts of this caliber, size, and pedigree don’t come to market often — and they rarely stay available for long. With her fresh price reduction, “Bella” offers a rare chance to step into Sunseeker ownership at a value that’s hard to ignore. Whether you’re an experienced owner looking to move up or a first-time buyer ready for the yacht of a lifetime, this is the moment to act.
Contact Aspire Yacht Sales today to schedule a private showing and experience “Bella” for yourself. Opportunities like this don’t wait.
