Biscayne Bay is a vast 35-mile long lagoon between Miami mainland and the barrier island of Miami Beach and south to Biscayne National Park marine sanctuary at Elliott Key. Ideal for sport fishing, boating, scuba diving and other recreational activities, including boat tours of the private islands that are home to many celebrities and uber-wealthy of the world. Fisher Island is only accessible by ferry or private boat to residents, hotel guests and members only. An interesting historical fact: In 1925, William K. Vanderbilt traded his 250-ft. yacht for the 7-acre barrier island owned by Carl G. Fisher! Another private island located in Biscayne Bay, is the 86-acre man-made Star Island enclave of celebrity homes. This island, accessible via a causeway from mainland Miami, is gated and secured for privacy. Tour boats offer glimpses of the luxury lifestyle of these secluded residences.

Bayside Marketplace is a bi-level open-air festival center on Biscayne Bay in the “heart” of Miami’s downtown area and the #1 tourist attraction in Miami. Visitors can experience the international character of Miami, with its variety of cuisines, fine shops, free live music performances and diverse culture. One can take the Water Taxi Miami service from Bayside to Miami Beach Marina, Key Biscayne, Coconut Grove and other destinations. Miamarina at Bayside offers 130 slips and is the embarkation point for various charters and boat tours for cruising the Bay, gambling cruises or viewing celebrity homes on Star Island. Besides the glamour of the Miami Yachting Lifestyle, PortMiami is the largest cruise terminal in the world and home port location of every major cruise line and some of the largest cruise ships in the world. Currently, cruising activity has been suspended through October 31, 2020. Contact USCG Marine Safety for status updates if you are considering a cruise. PortMiami, known as the Cargo Gateway of the Americas, is a global gateway for cargo, being strategically located at the crossroads of east-west and north-south trade lanes. PortMiami links world markets with the United States. A fast-access tunnel provides a direct connection to the Interstate highway system, alleviating downtown Miami of 80% of port traffic.

Marinas in the Miami area are Coconut Grove’s Dinner Key Marina featuring the largest wet slip marina (582 berths) plus 225 moorings just offshore and dockside restaurant, Monty’s Raw Bar. Miami Beach Marina is located at the southernmost point of South Beach; 400 slips accommodate luxury charter yachts to dive boats. Onsite restaurants are Texas De Brazil and Monty’s Raw Bar. Smith & Wollensky steakhouse is nearby, with breathtaking views of Fisher Island and cruising yachts. Crandon Marina is located on Key Biscayne and is an easy distance to artificial and natural reefs for great scuba diving and fishing. Its docks offer a perfect view of the bay and city skyline at sunset. Bill Bird Marina in Haulover Park on North Miami Beach is located on the AICW for convenient access to other waterways and is surrounded by a golf course! Pelican Harbour Marina in North Bay Village in the Miami Shores area is also on the AICW and is a 10-acre bird sanctuary island with picnic tables, BBQs and sand volleyball courts. South Dade Marinas include Matheson Hammock Marina in Coral Gables and Herbert Hoover Marina in Homestead Bayfront Park. Black Point Marina in Cutler Bay (southern stretch of Biscayne Bay) is the gateway to the Florida Keys near coral reefs and the marine sanctuary.

The Progressive Miami International Boat Show is slated to be held again at the Miami Marine Stadium Park & Basin on Rickenbacker Causeway in Key Biscayne on Feb. 11-15, 2021. According to 10times, the show is “one of the largest and most influential boat shows worldwide.” Attendees from all over the world can view vendors’ state of the art boats and megayachts at this glamorous show.

Testimonials

What Our Clients Say

My point of contact was Jose Noy. He was an excellent salesman and good with paperwork. He referred me to reputable contractors such as insurance providers, loan originators, I had my trailer built to suit my needs and he arranged with the Marina for service records and transportation. I feel he went above and beyond and it should reflect upon the company he works for.

Florida Yachts International is not only the most reliable and helpful company at selling yachts, but also Florida Yachts provided the best weekend experience I’ve ever had in Miami (and I grew up in Miami). I booked one of their charters for Saturday on the water with a group of my closest friends and the experience was magical. The boat was huge, super well organized, and the crew went above and beyond. FYI made the experience easy to organize and memorable. See attached for a couple pics from the awesome trip. I can’t say enough good things.

Florida Yachts made purchasing a boat an enjoyable experience. Hiram Concepcion was extremely attentive, took calls during and after the purchase and the staff made the paper work process flow smoothly. I especially liked the electronic document signature process so traversing Miami-Dade traffic was not required. The best part is long after the sale, Hiram has turned out to be a good friend that is always available to provide advice and recommendations for boat servicing. GREAT EXPERIENCE!

Probably the best experience I had with the broker ever. I was purchasing a vessel located in south Florida from New Jersey. Arney and Michelle guided me through the whole transaction over the phone and email and were super helpful in not just arranging all pre prepurchase paperwork and survey, but also helping with addressing the issues that came up after the transaction was completed. Highly responsive and honest people.

FYI continues to have a such dedicate team! I Have purchased two boats through them. They handle finding you a boat all the way to closing and everything in between. Captian Hiram Concepcion even took me on the boat several times after closing to get me comfortable with my cruiser for the family. Highly recommended !

This is the best place to go for a yacht! Hands down, the most grious pros in the business. If you want to be happy about your purchase, bring your business to Florida Yachts International!!! You will be glad you did.

The guys at FYI are great! I specifically like working with Nick A. A few years back I was referred to Nick by a mutual friend and all of my interactions with him since then have been A+

How do I pick the right yacht for me?

There are many factors that contribute to the decision in purchasing the right yacht that fits your needs. Here’s a quick guide for just a few of the decisions you’ll have to make.

Motor Yacht or a Sailboat?

Motor Yacht or a Sailboat? Each type of watercraft has strengths relative to the other. Sailboats are typically used for day trips with a few built with the equipment and ability to go longer distances. A motor yacht is not generally used as much to putter around on day trips, but more for a relaxing cruise between destinations. Fuel costs on a sailboat are lower than a motor yacht, and a sailboat will generally require less maintenance than a powerboat.

Consider Size Restrictions You will need to have an idea of where you will be docking your yacht to evaluate various factors such as draft, beam, length, and height restriction of the marina. Any bridges in the vicinity of where your yacht will be docked should also be taken into consideration.

How Many People Onboard? If you want to stay somewhere overnight, you need to ask yourself, “How many people will be sleeping on your yacht?” Also take into account the crew that will be onboard servicing the yacht. The more service you expect, the more crew you will have on at a given time.

Choosing The Right Yacht

Once you have answers to the questions listed above, it will be time to consider making appointments and start reviewing the inventory on the market. Take your time when shopping for yachts. We recommend, before buying a yacht, that you charter several different types so you can get the feel of owning one. We can help you charter a yacht similar to what you are looking for so you can get acquainted with the style. The Advantaged ensures you are guided in the right direction to obtain a good vessel at the right price and avoid the many common pitfalls in the industry. Below are the 4 different types of yachts to consider:

• Production Yachts
• Semi-custom Yachts
• Fully Custom Yachts
• Brokerage Yachts

Selecting a Yacht Broker

Now you are ready to find a yacht broker. Years of experience have demonstrated that you need to find a broker you can trust while still providing quality service, along with a sterling reputation. Here at The Advantaged , we embody those qualities and will work tirelessly to find the best match between your needs and the inventory available on the market today. We will guide you step-by-step through all of the paperwork and procedures to secure your purchase, in addition to arranging mooring, storage, insurance, and crew.

The Advantaged is a proud member of the Florida Yacht Brokers Association.

Making an offer

After days, months, or even years of searching for the perfect yacht, now it’s time to make an offer. We will draw up a purchase offer agreement on your behalf to buy the yacht. At the time the offer is submitted, the buyer normally wires 10% of the offer price to the selling broker’s escrow account, much like when purchasing a home. This is showing the owner of the yacht that you are a serious buyer.

In our years of experience, we have seen acceptance, rejection, and counter-offers. Don’t get discouraged, as it can normally take a few weeks before both parties agree on a sale price and conditions.

Pre-purchase survey

A pre-purchase survey can take about 1 to 2 weeks and is provided and paid for by the buyer. It is a detailed inspection of the vessel’s structure, mechanical, electrical, operating condition, and performance. A detailed report is prepared and includes an equipment list and detailed list of deficiencies, market value, and an estimate of maintenance costs for the coming years.

Now it is time for you, “The Buyer,” to test run the yacht for a few hours at the owner’s expense. It is a good way to check the engine performance at maximum speed. It is also good to check for noises, unusual sounds, crew steps, yacht swings, and if available, try all toys and accessories.

Closing Procedures

If all goes well in steps 5 and 6, the Buyer will write a letter of acceptance of the yacht. The Buyer needs to make sure to complete the deal before closing date so that the 10% down payment sitting in the escrow is not at risk. Upon closing on a yacht, both owner and buyer sign proper documents that

transfer ownership of the yacht. The Advantaged will assist the buyer with the new registration and insurance information as needed. We will assure that it’s a smooth transition.

After the Sale

Crew cost varies; you may need a captain, a mate, and crew on either a seasonal or day-to-day basis, and don’t forget about a cleaning crew. Everyone who buys a yacht has different needs. We can help you with referrals, compatibility, and locating a crew agency. Here in South Florida, we can help you find the right crew for your needs. A good crew means a well-maintained yacht.

Operating cost is vital information you need to know prior to purchasing a yacht. Owning a yacht is a luxury experience for truly successful people.

You may also think of chartering your new yacht to offset some expenses in the near future. We can help you with chartering your boat in Miami, Miami’s beaches, and Ft. Lauderdale. Keep in mind we strive to make your charters profitable and most big yachts make enough to offset some of the expenses. Charter compatibility should be considered before making a purchase as not all yachts are as popular.

What our clients are saying

"I recently celebrated a milestone birthday with a group of friends in Miami, one of them referred me to Cindy-MLY, and it was the best decision I could have made. The Monte Carlo Yacht 70 was stunning and spacious, with plenty of room for all of us to relax and enjoy the beautiful scenery. The crew was fantastic, catering to our every need and making sure we had a blast. We enjoyed delicious food and drinks on board, and even had the opportunity to try out some water sports like jet skiing and paddleboarding. I highly recommend MLY to anyone looking for a luxurious and memorable experience in Miami."

Resi roundup: Tech CEO, ex-Goldman partner, financier buy South Florida homes

Sales spanned Miami Beach to Palm Beach, ranged from $10.2M to $14.3M

In the latest roundup of South Florida luxury residential sales, a tech CEO, former Goldman Sachs partner and investors bought homes across the tri-county region.

Deals spanned Miami Beach to Palm Beach, and ranged in price from $10.2 million to $14.3 million.

Miami Beach

In Miami Beach , software boss Jose Sperman bought a waterfront house for $10.7 million. 

Records show Sperman, CEO of Miami-based Adistec, bought the house at 2608 Biarritz Drive from BBRC Real Estate LLC, a Florida entity managed by Renan da Rocha Gomes Bastos. Bastos is a trader who sued Hong Kong-based online foreign exchange FxWinning in September for allegedly withholding $80 million, Newsfile reported in September. 

Carolina Lara-Arashiro and Andre Duek Roberto de Lima of One Sotheby’s International Realty had the listing, and Gustavo Sperman of La Playa Properties Group brought the buyer.

Bastos bought the house for $15.5 million in 2022, records show. Built in 2019 on 0.3 acres, the 5,500-square-foot house has six bedrooms, six bathrooms, one half-bathroom, a pool and a dock, according to property records.  

Bastos listed the house for $15.5 million in February and dropped the price three times before selling for $4.8 million less than he paid for it, Redfin shows. 

Bay Harbor Islands

Developer Samuel Bissu sold a waterfront spec home in Bay Harbor Islands for $14.3 million. 

Bissu’s Luxom Project V LLC, a Florida entity, sold the house at 9501 East Broadview Drive, Redfin shows. The deed has yet to be recorded, and the buyer is unknown.

Oren Alexander and Isaac Lustgarten of Official had the listing, and Chad Carroll of Compass brought the buyer.

Bissu bought the property for $4.8 million in 2022, property records show. He completed the home earlier this year. It spans 6,200 square feet, with seven bedrooms, seven bathrooms, one half-bathroom, a pool and a dock, the listing shows. Architect Simon Bissu designed the home, and Margaret Bissu led interior design, according to the listing. 

In Palm Beach , Jeffrey Newton, managing director of Gemini Investors in Wellesley, Massachusetts, bought a non-waterfront home for $12.5 million in an off-market deal.  

Records show Newton and Marie Palandjian bought the house at 257 West Indies Drive from a Delaware entity named for the address.

The selling entity bought the house for $5.6 million in 2020, records show. Built in 1961 on 0.3 acres, the 3,600-square-foot house has five bedrooms and five bathrooms, according to property records. The seller recently completed an extensive renovation of the home. 

Former Goldman Sachs general partner Gary L. Zwerling bought a waterfront home in Boca Raton’s gated Sanctuary neighborhood for $10.2 million.

Records show Zwerling and his wife, Marie Zwerling, bought the house at 751 Sanctuary Drive from Hugh and Kimberly Levaux.

Ari Albinder of The Keyes Company had the listing, and Kevin Kreutzfeld of Premier Estate Properties brought the buyers.

Hugh Levaux, a former vice president at the biotech firm Flatiron Health, and his wife bought the house for $7 million in 2022, according to property records. The 7,300-square-foot house was built in 1988 on 0.3 acres, records show. It has five bedrooms, five bathrooms, three half-bathrooms, a pool and 175 feet of waterfront the listing shows. 

Bitcoin Pizza Week: Crypto Spent On 2 Yummy Pies 14 Years Ago Could Now Buy Jeff Bezos' Yacht And Elon Musk's Jet Fleet — With Spare Change!

H urray! Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC ) Pizza Week is finally here, reminding us of the time when this prized digital currency was used for the first time for commercial purposes. But do you know that the Bitcoin spent on two Papa John’s pizzas that day could purchase you ultra-luxury products owned by billionaires today? 

What Happened: An event immortalized in the cryptocurrency realm, Laszlo Hanyecz, a Florida-based programmer, disclosed on a Bitcoin Forum on May 22, 2010 that he "successfully traded" 10,000 Bitcoins for pizza.

According to the conversation on the Forum, 1 Bitcoin was worth $0.0041 on the historical day, taking the total purchase amount to $41. Seems a long time ago, isn’t it?

Why It Matters: Cut to May 2024 and Bitcoin has exploded since its early days. It is the largest digital currency in terms of market cap as of this writing, with 1 Bitcoin worth more than $67,000, according to data from Benzinga Pro .

That takes the total worth of 10,000 Bitcoins to nearly a whopping $670 million.

So, if our dear friend Laszlo had resisted using up his Bitcoin holdings to pay for Pizzas that day, he could have easily purchased Amazon.com Inc. founder Jeff Bezos ' superyacht ‘Koru .' The $500-million sailing boat made waves last year due to its humongous size and high operating costs. 

Interestingly, Hanyecz would still have been left with $170 million, more than enough to buy the entire fleet of Tesla Inc. CEO Elon Musk's private planes , which are valued at over $100 million.

These events help in understanding Bitcoin's stupendous growth trajectory over the last decade, making the fortunes of several of its loyal enthusiasts who stuck with the asset through the highs and lows of the market.

How Luxury Watches Won the Miami Grand Prix

The one-upmanship wasn't limited to the racetrack

The glinting electroform-dial on Ed Sheeran’s Royal Oak Perpetual Calendar John Mayer ‘Crystal Sky’ Audemars Piguet attracting stares in the Red Bull Racing garage. Kansas City Chiefs’ Patrick Mahomes sidling into the Alpine motorhome, flashing an exclusive Rolex Oyster Perpetual Platinum Day-Date , complete with 40mm ice blue dial and baguette diamond-set bezel. And just about every other person – from wunderkind Max Verstappen through to German influencer Caro Daur – sporting the freshly-birthed, brightly-hued Kith Heuer collab .

The Formula 1 Crypto.com Miami Grand Prix might be a mere three years old and nestled in amongst 23 other races, but for the season’s biggest display of wristwatch rivalry, it’s lights out and away we go.

“When I first made it to Formula 1, in 2000, I treated my father and myself to a Rolex,” Jenson Button tells me from the paddock at this year’s Miami GP. “It was my first special watch, a steel Rolex Daytona. After all the years of hard work and commitment, it felt like we’d made it and the Daytona was a symbol of that.”

In the fight for brand alignment in Formula 1, it’s typically a duel between Rolex and Tag Heuer for pole position.

Tag Heuer might stake a claim for oldest association with motorsport, formerly-named ‘Heuer’ having cut its teeth on dash-mounted rally timers , but Rolex’s celebrity in racing - thanks to Sir Malcolm Campbell beating records at Daytona Beach in a Rolex Oyster, the subsequent vogue of Rolex’s Cosmograph Daytona and, of course, the even bigger fanaticism brought to the watch by actor and racer Paul Newman - has done a great deal to secure a podium spot for the Swiss house for the rest of eternity. “Everyone knows this watch is for the racing driver,” Button pushes.

It’s a status quo that endures across almost the full panoply of Formula 1’s many races. Certainly at more historical events, there’s reverence for Rolex’s cachet as the Official Timepiece of Formula 1 . But though the coronet logo appears ubiquitously, and the Rolex Pit Lane Clock looms above every track, shifts in audience demographics and the aggressive uptick in America’s participation means that new orders are brewing.

Formula 1 in 2024 is a very different beast to what it was even five years ago. Its evolution might easily be charted by comparing the oldest surviving race weekends to recent calendar inclusions. If not quite the most ancient, at least the most iconic, Monaco’s grand prix is a distillation of a century’s heritage and history. Attending is still a closely-guarded privilege, for yacht owners in Brunello Cuccinelli linen and Loro Piana loafers. The race’s trophy case is a time-honoured Vuitton trunk and the timepieces betray a subtler kind of generational wealth. It’s Flavio Briatore in a Rolex Daytona ‘Zenith ’ or Patrick Dempsey in a Monaco Calibre 12 . On the other end of the spectrum, the American additions to the schedule, in their relative infancy, are an open door for the influx of bright young things who have come to the sport via Netflix’s Drive to Survive or F1 owner Liberty Media’s recent social media strategy , who bring with them a taste for newness, ostentation and hypey collabs. If Monaco is for quiet luxury, then Miami is for out-and-proud horological bling.

Diehard racing fans might roll their eyes at Twitchers and TikTokers, but their effect on sport sponsorship has been profound. Nielsen recently tracked a 107% increase in sponsorship spending globally, linked to significant growth in non-traditional sectors like esports and, in the case of Formula 1 particularly, a 54% increase in American viewership and the lowering of the average spectator age to 32 .

The opportunity, for brands willing to meet this new generation at their point of entry, is enormous. It was an obvious choice for TAG Heuer to use Miami to launch their limited edition partnership with Ronny Fieg’s trendy lifestyle brand Kith , hosting a Met Gala-worthy dinner at Miami’s Rubell Museum, and for Tudor to tease a pair of custom Chameleon-dial Black Bay Ceramic watches created to match the Visa Cash App RB F1 Team’s technicolour Miami livery.

For the same reason, Miami is an incredible dissemination ground for directional, driver-designed watches, such as Lewis Hamilton’s creations with IWC Schaffhausen (most recently, the Portugieser Tourbillon Rétrograde Chronograph Lewis Hamilton ). “Hamilton is not just one of the most accomplished athletes in the world,” says IWC CMO Franziska Gsell, “He’s a trendsetter in all things fashion and design and an activist for social change, which means he holds a strong appeal to a very heterogeneous group of people from different cultural backgrounds.”

Besides the young swarms, Miami’s grand prix holds a magnifying glass to the city’s unique microcosm of unfathomably rich transplants. “There’s been a wealth migration here, in the last three years. It’s actually pretty astounding,” says Tom Garfinkel , President and CEO of the Hard Rock Stadium, and Managing Partner of the Miami GP. Thanks to the fact that Florida doesn’t levy taxes on income or capital gains , billionaires flock to Miami to save a few bob. “Miami is an aspirational city, and a curator of culture, and more Europeans, Latin Americans and wealthy people from New York are moving here permanently,” Garfinkel continues, “Which means we have got to try and create the kind of hospitality and personalisation [at the race] that’s on a higher level than you might see anywhere else.”

It’s for this reason that the traditional Paddock Club viewing suites are supplemented by a staggering list of alternative immersive experiences, such as the Casa Tua trackside nightclub , an artificial marina full of race-facing yachts and a ‘Hard Rock Beach Club’ between turns 11 and 13, boasting pools, famous DJs and even the odd mermaid. A pageantry you certainly wouldn’t find at Spa or Monza.

For watch brands, the attending wealth is especially significant. “We knew this was the venue for us to present the Monaco rattrapante ,” says Tag Heuer Heritage Director Nicholas Biebuyck, “So we had a private dinner on the Thursday night, and invited only 20 or so special guests who are either prospective or previous buyers of the rattrapante.” Sitting at £121,000 (or 155,000 Swiss Francs for the customised version), this isn’t your typical Tag. “With this watch we know we are going to have to go after a very different audience,” Biebuyck continues, “and Miami is the place to do that.”

This is also where Ferrari and McLaren partner Richard Mille, whose entry-level watch is still five-figures, really comes into its own. At no other race globally will you see so many general punters splurging £120,000 on an RM 67-02 .

Jostling for position on the wrists of celebrity attendees is a rare 18k Gold Rolex GMT II with factory set diamonds on Miami Heat’s Jimmy Butler, NFL player Odell Beckham Junior’s astonishing $500,000 (£398,000) blue ceramic Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Perpetual Calendar and GP-winner Lando Norris ’ hand-decorated, sapphire crystal Richard Mille 67-02 ‘High Jump’. An honourable mention goes to Travis Kelce for personifying the whole spectacle in a garish green Givenchy two-piece, Bottega sunglasses, a backwards Alpine cap and sporting his favourite Rolex Submariner 126610.

“The challenge that we’re now presented with,” admits Biebuyck, “is how to handle that delta between the enthusiast viewership and those who see race weekends more as a party. And watch presentation is the canary in the coal mine for that.”

Of the various places where you can see that gulf at its widest, Miami is probably top of the list. Between the Hard Rock mermaids, Kelce causing chaos among Swifties and Donald Trump (in a Rolex) sauntering around the starting grid, pointing and fist-bumping at a baying grandstand, Florida’s grand prix has so much going on that it would be easy to lose sight of the reason we’re all supposed to be there - the race itself. For flush Miami locals, the £10-20,000 price of a Paddock Club pass is on par with just one strap of an RM 027, so if you’re caught up in Casa Tua and forget to glimpse the track, perhaps it doesn’t feel like such a big deal. The interplay between sport and spectacle is complex, to be sure, and the calibre of watch on show in Miami reflects both America’s boon to the Formula 1 industry, and the risk that conspicuous consumerism might become the main attraction.
