Tony Dirado

Tony has had a passion for the ocean since he was very young. Growing up near the mid-Atlantic U.S. coast he was immediately drawn to the ocean. “My father was a merchant mariner for over 50 years and provided me with the foundation of my sailing and boating experiences.” Tony began competitive sailing after college participating in many one-design and PHRF regattas including NOOD and Rolex events as well as the J/24 World Championship in 2012. Tony has now turned his interests towards the cruising lifestyle and with over 30+ years of experience of being on the water having owned both sail and power boats, he has significant insight into the full lifecycle of yacht ownership. “I love being in this industry, I am a people person, and it excites me every day to wake up to help those who love the water as much as I do realize their dream.”
