Management
Alan Hamerstrom, President -
In 1965 Alan drove his ten year old Volkswagen from The University of Wisconsin to Annapolis to pursue a dream, that of becoming a yacht broker. No brokerage would hire him at first, so he scraped barnacles and painted boat bottoms for eight months. Finally the founder of Interyacht offered him a brokerage job; and by 1974 he was sole owner of the company.
If a college degree in psychology taught him anything of value for his business career, it is that a) once a person buys a boat, he thinks it is worth a lot more than he thought it was before he bought it, and b) people have the most fascinating variety of attitudes. Cultural relativity certainly is to be respected if you want to be successful in this career.
Maybe it was his Viking ancestry, maybe it was a summer-long canoe trip down the Mississippi River at age twenty-three, and maybe it was the wonderful variety of books read about world cruising, but somehow Alan had a passion for boats that has led to a lifelong career in that field.
Along the way he served three years as President of the countrys only national yacht brokerage association, sixteen years on its board of directors and nearly as long on its Professional Standards and Ethics Committee.
