Michael De Lisio

Yacht Salesperson

Michael brings years of experience as a yacht captain navigating both the Caribbean and the Mediterranean, offering clients true hands-on expertise that goes far beyond traditional brokerage. His time at sea built a deep understanding of yacht operations, performance, crew management, maintenance standards, and the real-life expectations of ownership — insight that now gives his clients a distinct advantage in every transaction. Since becoming a yacht broker in 2020, Michael has successfully completed numerous transactions across a wide range of vessels. His captain's background allows him to evaluate yachts from a practical, operational perspective while guiding buyers and sellers with clarity and confidence throughout every stage of the process. Transparency and honesty are among Michael's greatest strengths. He is known for being direct, upfront, and truthful at all times — whether advising on pricing strategy, vessel condition, negotiations, or market positioning. Combined with a high level of personalized service and extensive industry connections built over years as a captain — including relationships with shipyards, surveyors, crew, management companies, and service providers worldwide — he delivers value that extends well beyond the sale itself. Believing strongly in the power of digital marketing and modern brokerage, Michael joined New Gen Yachts to be part of a forward-thinking movement within the yachting industry. By combining traditional maritime expertise with innovative marketing strategies, his mission remains simple: protect his clients' interests, provide exceptional service, and ensure a seamless experience from listing to closing and beyond.
