Leo Thibault literally grew up on the water, rowing his first boat before riding his first bike. From maneuvering small craft on the ponds and along the rivers of Massachusetts to racing power boats on Lake Winnipesaukee in New Hampshire and sail boats in Narragansett Bay, Leo has relentlessly pursued his lifelong obsession for boating. With his vast knowledge of both power and sail boats, Leo has turned this lifelong passion into a thriving business. Inspired by one of his favorite authors, Mark Twain, and following his own dream, Leo packed up his family and relocated to Punta Gorda, Florida several years ago and established himself as an extremely successful yacht broker.
Twain wrote: “Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” Judging by his sales figures, the number of his listings, and the loyalty of his large client base, Leo’s enthusiasm is contagious.
Testimonials

We engaged Leo to help us sell our American Tug 395. Some brokers will suggest a low starting price to make their job easier. Not Leo. He suggested a starting price that we felt was fair and accurately reflected the market. In was obvious that Leo gave the mater some serious thought. Also, it helped that Leo is very knowledgeable about American Tugs. Leo turned out to be correct about the listing price. He had the boat under contract at the full asking price in about 24 hours with other potential buyers in the wings. The sale closed with no price adjustments. Throughout the sales process, Leo worked hard, was extremely professional and communicated with us fully and regularly. We could not have been more pleased with the job Leo did for us. We recommend him without reservation.

When we purchased Heartbeat (34-140) a few years ago to do the loop we were working with a broker in Portland who was great but was more familiar with sailboats than powerboats. As we were looking at AT’s on the East Coast the majority of them at the time were listed by Leo. We even made an offer on one that didn’t work out. Leo was extremely professional though and my broker ended up calling him a few times to ask questions about other boats. Leo was always happy to give us information even on the boat we ended up purchasing that happened to be one of the couple he was not representing. When we decided to sell our boat I didn’t consider anyone else and called Leo right away. Leo met with us, there was no pressure and his knowledge of American Tugs was obvious. We have moved to Michigan and the boat was on the hard in Florida for the entire time we had it listed. Leo staged the boat, his marketing was fantastic, and his communications was second to none. This guy works his tail off and earns his commission. He constantly called us with updates on everything he did and we never had to wonder what was going on with the boat or what was going on with it once we were under contract. I am sad that we decided to sell the boat but I can’t recommend Leo enough. I personally believe there is no broker on the East Coast with Leo’s knowledge of American Tugs or his proven track record selling them. He is fantastic and if you are looking to sell at all, he would be worth a phone call.

I contacted Leo last January to begin the search for my “perfect” boat. After viewing at least 15 boats from Fort Lauderdale to Miami and Fort Meyers to Tampa over the past year, he found me my “perfect” boat this December. Leo worked tirelessly, and so patiently to ultimately find me my 2006 Tiara 4300 Sovran. He is a true professional with extensive knowledge about the entire process and his communication and follow-up are second to none. He has also formed alliances with other great professionals from the surveyors to financing to mechanics and more.
I would highly recommend Leo and the Edwards team to anyone out there in the boat market.
Sincerely,
Leo Thibault was the perfect choice of a broker for SmartyPants, my American Tug 34' when, after the loss of my husband and with my handicaps preventing me from assisting in the sales process, I wanted a swift, drama-free, and great price sale of my boat. Leo took care of everything, working well with my captain and the dock master at St. Charles Yacht Club, helping his buyer secure needed financing, and keeping me informed every step of the way. I couldn't have asked for more.

We contracted with Leo Thibault of Edwards Yacht Sales to sell our 2001 American Tug after 14 great years on her. We chose Leo because he was local (to the boat) and had a solid sales history with selling our model boat. Leo was open, honest and on top of all the details of the sales process. Our expectations were met in every step of the sales process. He helped us with solid preparation advice, communicated with us frequently, and was most helpful in getting the boat sold in a very short period of time.
A friend of ours had used Leo two times to sell his boats and provided us with a solid recommendation. We are pleased to add our recommendation for your consideration in having Leo represent your boat sale.
While living aboard, we have seen many brokers proudly place "for sale" signs on boats, and then never see them or prospective buyers near the boat again. That was not definitely not our experience. Leo knew the boat, the market, the location of potential buyers, and brought them to the boat. He was everything we could hope for in a broker.
