Michael Roberts.
Michael Roberts is a Florida-licensed yacht broker with The Daly Group. Military discipline, boarding-school polish, and a lifelong relationship with the water - applied to the way the next generation buys and sells yachts.
A modern approach to a traditional market.
Michael grew up on the water. That early, daily exposure to boats - the cadence of a marina, the language of a sea trial, the way a vessel moves under power - shaped his instincts long before brokerage was the goal. His military service then layered on the work ethic, the attention to detail, and the composure that now define the way he represents clients on six- and seven-figure decisions.
As one of the younger licensed brokers in the Florida market, Michael brings something the industry doesn't always have: a fresh perspective on how yacht buyers actually search, communicate, and evaluate vessels today. He pairs that with the marketing fluency to meet buyers where they are - video walkthroughs, sharp listing presentation, and direct, unfiltered communication.
His education at one of the world's most prestigious boarding schools refined the rest. Surrounded by accomplished families from around the world, Michael learned the discretion, presentation, and quiet professionalism that high-profile clientele expect. Today he applies all of it - the boat-show floor instincts, the military precision, the boarding-school polish - to making every transaction feel seamless from inquiry to delivery.
"I came up around boats, and I came up under structure - the Navy gave me the discipline, and the buyers I work with feel that in how I run a deal. My job is to make the process seamless. No referrals out, no surprises, no wasted time. Whether you're upgrading to your first sixty-footer or selling a yacht you've owned for a decade, I treat the transaction like it's the only one I have."

On the Water
Grew up on boats. Reads marinas, sea trials, and yacht-show floors instinctively.
Where the deals happen.
Michael spends his weeks the way a yacht broker should - on the docks, at the shows, walking listings with buyers, running sea trials with surveyors. South Florida's brokerage market rewards the brokers who show up in person. He does.
