Celebrating Lori Goldstein’s Remarkable Career

It is with both admiration and gratitude that we announce the retirement of one of our most esteemed yacht brokers, Lori Goldstein. For over 40 years, Lori has been a cornerstone of our team, sharing her unparalleled expertise, deep industry knowledge, and unwavering dedication to her clients. She began her brokerage career with Bollman Yachts before joining David Walters Yachts, where she continued to make an indelible mark on the industry.

Lori’s love for the water began in the Chesapeake Bay, where she started sailing as a youngster. Her passion led her to explore the Caribbean on her Passport 40 and crew on larger sailboats throughout the Mediterranean. That same adventurous spirit and keen understanding of bluewater cruising sailboats made her an invaluable resource for buyers and sellers alike. As many of her clients transitioned into trawlers and motor yachts, Lori seamlessly expanded her knowledge to best serve their evolving needs.

Throughout her career, Lori has built a reputation for integrity, professionalism, and exceptional service. Sellers have benefited from her creative strategies to maximize the value of their yachts, while buyers have consistently praised her ability to find the perfect boat to suit their dreams and budgets.

Beyond her brokerage expertise, Lori made a lasting impact on the yachting industry. She played a pivotal role in the passage of Florida’s 90-Day Tax Exemption law, advocating for the economic benefits it would bring to the state. Her efforts were instrumental in making this initiative a reality—one that continues to benefit yacht owners and the entire Florida boating community.

While Lori embarks on her next chapter, her legacy within our company and the yachting industry will endure. We extend our heartfelt thanks for her years of dedication, passion, and commitment.

Please join us in celebrating Lori’s incredible career and wishing her fair winds and following seas in her well-earned retirement!
