91: The Big BOAT Interview: Mark Elliott

BOAT Briefing - A podcast by BOAT International

Categories:

This week’s Big BOAT interview is with IYC yacht broker Mark Elliott. A Miami native who got his sea legs early, Mark was an experienced captain by the age of 19. We talk about the time he met Bernie Little, a yacht aficionado who loomed large in his career, the hairy hours when he battled to save the guests and crew of 37 metre Nadine (which eventually sank in 15-metre waves off Sardinia) – an incident made famous by the movie Wolf of Wall Street, his fondness for flying, the time he met Sean Connery, the American yacht building industry and a few of his current listings, which include 73.1 metre Laurel, 64 metre Atomic and the one-of-a-kind Jon Bannenberg-designed all-carbon Oceanfast Thunder.
