Don't be fooled by Impersonators! |

It has been said that 'Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery''. Well if that's the case, we're flattered! It appears that other yacht brokerages continue to copy our business practises, from operational procedures, web design, even the customized in-house forms that we use. Why is this you may ask? The simple answer is the the crew at NSNG have been selling yachts for a long time, are highly experienced in the field, and are a leader in the industry. We have spent years fine tuning the business model, and spare no expense when it come to marketing.
Don't be fooled by outfits who's only corporate office consists of the trunk of a car. Would you feel comfortable handing over a cheque to someone and watch them drive away? In addition, all of our yachts advertised have Listing Agreements in place and we do not just market any boat and any price simply to pad our inventory as some other brokerages may do.
NSNG is a Endorsed Brokerage by the Certifed Professional Yacht Broker program and adhears to their high operating stardards. We're looking forward to working with you! |

Operating under the North South Nautical Group banner, North South Yacht Sales specializes in the sale of pre-owned power and sailing yachts. With its head office based in Port Credit Harbour Marina, North South Yacht Sales is the largest yacht brokerage in Ontario with various locations throughout the Province. In addition, the NSNG team has built strategic alliances with brokerage firms in the United States and the Caribbean.

Heading up North South Nautical Group Inc. is Mike Burns, President. Burns has an extensive knowledge of the marine industry, and brokerage sales in particular. In addition to being a Certified Professional Yacht Broker, Burns was the General Manager of the largest yacht brokerage in Canada, Clift’s Marine Sales, for more than 6 years. He sits on the Board of Directors for the Yacht Brokers Association of America, and serves on the Certification Advisory Committee for the Certified Professional Yacht Broker program. Working closely with these esteemed organizations, and adapting the high level of standard and practices that these organizations demand has enabled North South Nautical Group Inc. to immediately attain recognition of an "Endorsed Brokerage" by the CPYB program. North South Nautical Group Inc. is the first yacht brokerage in Canada with this rating.
As a freelance writer for several major boating publications, and as a segment host for Power Boat TV, Burns is a well recognized figure in the marine market place. Utilizing these strategic alliances, North South Nautical Group Inc. will be marketed in a variety of ways for maximum exposure.
According to Burns,
"Our marketing strategy is to emphasize the fact that our company is a ‘Pre-Owned Yacht Specialist’. Our goal is to become the preferred brokerage of choice for customers who are either looking to buy or sell previously owned yachts. New boat dealers that also sell pre-owned inventory may tend to focus on selling new boats and trade-ins. Arguably, boats on consignment do not receive the same level of service. With NSNG, our entire focus is pre-owned —there is no potential conflict of interest."
The recent economic times are proving to be challenging for those companies whose prime focus is on new boat products. The pre-owned market is significantly larger than the new boat sector, and history has proven, and continues to prove that brokerage firms specializing in pre-owned yachts in general stand the test of time in such volatile markets. North South Nautical Group Inc. looks forward to a long and successful relationship with new clients, and with many customers already known to our team.
