Introducing Farr Yacht Sales Americas
Farr Yacht Sales has added the division of Farr Yacht Sales Americas. The new office will be headed by Jesse Fielding in Newport, Rhode Island. This office joins other FYS offices in Annapolis, Maryland and Cowes, UK to provide an integrated experience for clients around the world. FYS continues its reorganization into a territorial business model and is excited to welcome Jesse to the team.
FYS Americas serves as an outlet for Farr Yacht Design’s new production yachts and for brokerage listings. This model will also provide support for owners of existing Farr-designed yachts. It will build on a strong, well-respected reputation with owners, sailmakers, sailors and other brokerage firms.
Fielding is actively involved in the sailing community. He brings ten years of grand prix campaign experience to FYS. He has achieved success in one design classes and offshore platforms around the world. Jesse credits the Morning Light Project, which featured a Farr-designed TP52, with launching his sailing career.
“I’m excited to partner with the team at Farr and work with clients on an individual basis to achieve their goals,” said Fielding.
Patrick Shaughnessy, president of Farr Yacht Design, said, “We look forward to having Jesse’s fresh perspective on our team and launch FYS Americas with a renewed enthusiasm.”
Adding FYS Americas alongside FYS Europe will allow for additional product exposure across North and South America and the Caribbean islands. Owners and prospective owners of Farr-designed sailboats benefit from a close working relationship with Farr Yacht Design, the largest racing sailboat design office in the world. Optimization services, boat histories, sailing performance data, construction methods and racing prospects can be made available to assist owners to make informed choices. FYS Americas is actively seeking brokers and agents within its territory to represent specific products in local areas. Interested parties should contact Jesse.
FYS is continuing to develop its territorial business model throughout the world and anticipates the announcement of further added territories in the near future.
