About YPY

Regular meetings occur monthly and consist of sharing industry news, hosting professional development seminars with talks by top industry leaders and fostering professional development. We allow members to share any industry news or updates for discussions and encourage new ideas and member collaboration. The association also hosts sponsored social events for networking opportunities.

Membership is limited to land-based business professionals within the yachting industry between the ages of 21 and 40.

YPY has been a great way to meet other professionals working in or around superyachts and learn about other parts of the industry in a relaxed and social way, with some great events and interesting talks"

The goal is to provide young professionals with a comfortable and educational environment which nurtures those who aspire to learn, succeed and secure the professional and ethical future of the yachting industry.

John JarvieFormer YPY President

Now that the organization has gained momentum in South Florida, we look forward to the addition of Monaco and London chapters of Young Professionals in Yachting. We now aim to sustain our South Florida chapter, successfully grow our European counterparts, and to eventually provide a platform for all worldwide members to connect as well. The organization will make small differences to adapt to European culture, but its mission and operation will emphasize the same principles.

John JarvieFormer YPY President

We want young professionals to have a place and identity of their own in the yachting industry, with emphasis on building long-lasting partnerships between our members, other industry veterans, and related groups and associations along the way.
