— Our Origins
A single berth in Malta.
A global legacy on the sea.
- Varazze, Liguria — Current Headquarters
Driven by passion and deep industry knowledge, PowerYacht was officially founded in 1998 as CW Yachts—a specialized consultancy and brokerage firm dedicated to helping clients find their dream motorboats. What started as a small boutique office has evolved into a powerhouse of maritime expertise.
In 2010, following the massive success of our daily news blog, we rebranded to PowerYacht. This evolution allowed us to bridge the gap between being a trusted advisor and a primary source of global yachting intelligence. Today, we are a recognized name in brokerage, maintaining direct connections with world-leading boat builders to ensure our clients always secure the best possible deal.
