Mamaroneck, NY – October 11, 2011 - McMichael Yacht Brokers is excited to announce the opening of a new sales office at Newport Shipyard in Newport, R.I., which will offer new and brokerage services to the marine community. Founded in 1935, McMichael has long been a major presence in the Northeast.

Howard McMichael, President, noted that the new office came about based on an expanding customer base. "We've been fortunate to see our business grow over the past years thanks to a combination of great brands and the continued service our team of professional brokers provides to the community. With more listings in Rhode Island and Eastern Connecticut, the new office was an obvious solution."

The office will open November 1st and will be staffed by our full team of brokers. McMichael proudly represents the following new boats from New Jersey to Rhode Island: J/Boats, Tartan, Alerion Express, MJM Yachts, EdgeWater and AB Inflatables.
