Yachts for Sale
in Miami

Miami is one of the deepest yacht markets in the world: strong late-model inventory, international sellers, and boats that show all year. It is also a market where asking prices span everything from priced-to-sell to priced-for-negotiation, which is exactly where representation earns its keep.

Greg Gaus is based 30 minutes up I-95 in Fort Lauderdale and works the Miami docks weekly. Twenty years as a working captain, seven inside Westport, $88M+ closed - and on any boat below he acts as your buyer's broker at no cost to you, because the seller pays the commission.

Where are yachts kept in Miami? The main brokerage clusters are the Miami River yards, Miami Beach Marina, Sunset Harbour, Coconut Grove, and the Aventura and North Miami marinas. Each card above shows the boat's current location - as of August 2026 this selection spans the whole of greater Miami.

Is it cheaper to buy a yacht in Miami or Fort Lauderdale? The markets trade as one - boats move between the two constantly and buyers shop both. What changes the price is the boat, not the zip code. The advantage is that a South Florida buyer can see a dozen candidates in two days, which is exactly how Greg runs showings.

Does a Miami yacht purchase pay Florida sales tax? Florida caps sales tax at $18,000 per vessel regardless of price, and nonresident buyers may qualify for the removal exemption. See the Florida boat sales tax guide on this site, and confirm specifics with a maritime attorney before closing.

Does using Greg as a buyer's broker cost anything? No. The seller pays the brokerage commission at closing. Greg handles comps, negotiation, survey, sea trial and closing on your side of the table at no cost to you.
