CHUCK GRICE, President and Owner, grew up in Maryland and as a child, his parents inspired in him a lifelong love of boating. He graduated from Villanova University with a B.S. in Marketing, and started in the boating business in 1981. After being a sales manager for a Viking Yacht dealer in Annapolis, Maryland, and then a Viking-Hatteras dealer in Hampton, Virginia, he opened Virginia Yacht Brokers in 1989. Chuck feels new boat dealers who sell used boats simply cannot make the sale of their used boats a priority. All too concerned with day-to-day floorplan expenses, problems relating to service, and inventory obligations from the manufacturer, these dealers have no time or energy to effectively market brokerage boats. Virginia Yacht Brokers only sells brokerage boats. This is yacht brokerage done right! Chuck lives in Virginia Beach with his wife Kelsey, son Parker and their daughter McKenzie attends University of Miami. He can be reached via e-mail at chuck.grice@vayacht.com or on his cell phone at 757-287-6344.
BOB STARR grew up on the Jersey Shore and was introduced to boating at a young age. A graduate of the University of South Florida, Bob holds two masters degrees. As a career Naval officer, Bob served his last tour of duty at the U.S. Naval War College in Newport, Rhode Island. Upon retirement he relocated to Virginia, where he managed one of the largest marina resorts on the lower Chesapeake Bay. Bob's progression from a top-notch marina to a professional yacht brokerage firm was natural and is a perfect match. His knowledge of boating, combined with his low-key personality, makes him one of the finest brokers you will ever meet. Bob's congenial demeanor, attention to detail and genuine concern for his clients have led to his success. Bob lives in Virginia Beach with his wife Geri, their son Matt is a coastal scientist in Florida, and their daughter Brooke is a junior at Virginia Tech. He can be reached via e-mail at bob.starr@vayacht.com or on his cell phone at 757-714-1866.
