Recommendation for Training:

We encourage you to visit the Royal Yachting Association (R.Y.A.) website, another prestigious organization based in England with a global presence. The R.Y.A. offers top-tier practical training through numerous establishments worldwide, helping many individuals acquire internationally recognized navigation qualifications, such as “Day Skipper” and CEVNI. These qualifications meet the legal requirements for navigating vessels up to 24 meters. We strongly advise all yacht brokers to attain qualifications relevant to the types of vessels they broker, whether sailing vessels, Motor boats, or both.

Our Mission:

Our organization aims to unite and support yacht sales professionals, upholding high standards of integrity, efficiency, and economy. We are dedicated to establishing, promoting, and enforcing exceptional standards of professional competence, character, and ethical conduct. Our objectives include fostering public recognition for AYB and its members, facilitating collaboration among brokers, and enhancing each member’s success.
