New and Used Broward Yachts for sale Broward Yachts Dealer List Broward Yacht, a little history...Broward Yachts has been building high quality vessels since 1948 and in March of 2005 was purchased by Florida businessman Tom Lewis. Lewis purchased the 10-acre Broward Yachts yard from Glenn Straub for an undisclosed sum of money. Broward Yacht is one of the first builders of mega-yachts in the United States. The company was established in 1948 by Frank and Gertrude Denison who established and built the business to manufacture wooden minesweepers for the government. In the 1950's Broward Yacht built it first 95' yacht and since then Broward Marine has produced over 200 more Broward Yachts. The Broward Marine yard, in addition to building Broward Yachts is also adding yacht maintenance, repair and refit services. The early history of Broward Yachts started with contracts with the U.S. and Dutch Navies and this created the foundation for the first "Broward Yachts". From that point on, the shipyard developed a reputation for quality and value. Broward Yachts have always been considered "little ships". "ALISA V" was one of the first yachts built and, at 95 feet, she was considered a megayacht for the 1950's. "ALISA V" caught the attention of Yachtsmen worldwide and put Broward Yachts on the top of the list of custom yacht builders. As the orders flowed in there were inquiries for a new material, which was stronger, and required less maintenance than wood. Aluminum was chosen for it's strength to weight ratio and the first aluminum Broward Yachts appeared in the early 1970's. Since that time, aluminum construction has proven to be the right choice by many. In the past 25 years Broward Yachts has built over 200 yachts in aluminum and found it to have several advantages over other construction materials. Aluminum is easy to work with and it is strong and offers weight advantages. Broward Yacht owners enjoy the benefits of more interior space, increased fuel capacities, better fuel economy, greater cruising speed, and longer range.
