Kyle is a customer first technical consultant and sales partner. He found us the ultimate motor yacht and then taught me how to operate it safely and competently. We spent 11 days together moving my Grand Banks 59 RF from Michigan to Cape May through 40 locks, rivers, lakes, harbors and oceans. He was a pleasure to have on board and was happy to share every bit of knowledge I could absorb. An amazing young man with a deep knowledge base not only in sail and motor marine but has EMT skills, is a great family man and always had my best interest as his priority. I consider Kyle a friend for life and do not hesitate to recommend him without hesitation.

I worked with Aaron Van Huysen with regards to the sale of my 2005 Boston Whaler. Aaron did fantastic job walking me through the process and keeping me well informed during the actual sale. I would highly recommend using his services whether you are buying or selling your boat.

The crew at Capstan Yachts did a great job for me when I purchased my boat. The boat was located on Cape Cod and I am 500 miles away in Annapolis, making difficult to make arrangement to have it moved to my Maryland Marina. Kyle, was very accommodating in helping prepare the boat to be transported by truck. Kyle, was very professional and efficient with both the sale negotiation and the purchase agreement.

I’ve known the team at Capstan Yachts for many years. I can say, without equivocation, that they are the most knowledgeable, professional, and industrious team I have ever seen. After working in the marine industry for over 15 years at that.
The founding partner, Capt. Kyle Smith is the most significant outlier in this business I have ever seen. He could be wildly successful in anything but chose to dedicate himself to his passion for boats and the water. As a result Capstan Yachts stands out as a true gem in this business. If you value elite expertise, professionalism, courtesy, and a work ethic more common in colder climates, this is who you call.
