ETWORK YACHTING acts as a consultant to discerning yachtsmen and the yachting industry. People relatively new to yachting are welcome to work with us too. We provide expert and honest advice regarding construction of custom yachts, purchase of new production yachts, and about quality used yachts. The agency also handles the sale of currently-owned yachts, and in the charter market, it has a full range of retail, wholesale and management services.

The NETWORK YACHTING team has represented clients in the major yachting centres of the world, including Florida, the South of France, Southeast Asia and Australia. They have extensive experience, spanning over 30 years, in displaying vessels at boat shows ranging from Miami and Ft Lauderdale to Nice and Monaco, as well as Dubai, Singapore and Sydney.

The founder and principal of NETWORK YACHTING, Peter Singleton, offers clients 40 years of yacht sales and marketing experience. This is a family company with a reputation for ethical and meticulous dealings, which is well-known among the yachting community worldwide.

Peter started in the yacht industry in Australia in 1966, as a boatbuilder building Bertram Yachts. He moved on to owning and operating his own dealerships, selling outboard motors and small production fiberglass boats, and then progressed to importing hundreds of cruising and sport yachts, including the Brunswick brands Bayliner and Maxum and Genmar lines along with other brands such as Cruisers Inc.

During the past 20 years his consultancy company, formerly known as Pete Singleton Marine, has represented such notable yards as Norship, builders of the famous Moonraker, as well as VW2, Lady Tiffany, and two yachts for the Sultancies of Brunei and Johor, Teeth and Bonita (click images below).

Five years with Oceanco saw Peter sell their first 164’ superyacht Achiever, and the marketing and sales of Caprice, Applause, Accolade and Ultimate, operating in the South of France, Florida, Dubai, Southeast Asia and the Pacific. Peter then spent a further five years heading Simpson Marine’s Superyacht Division, operating out of both Malaysia and Australia, selling large brokerage boats worldwide, including Oceanfasts, Lloydships and other custom vessels.

Co-Director Melanie Singleton brings 18 years experience in international marine marketing to NETWORK YACHTING, having pioneered electronic bulletins (htmls) and true internet marketing in the marine industry, which has immensely benefited our clients.

Daily updates to and from over 2,000 worldwide brokers gives NETWORK YACHTING instant information about, and access to, literally thousands of yachts 80 feet and above that are currently for sale worldwide. Melanie’s practical yachting experience began with sailboat racing in the early 1980s, and she later purchased her own Roberts cruising yacht to extensively explore the East Coast of Australia, now a popular chartering area.

On the brokerage side, we can ourselves offer about 500 quality used and new yachts between 80 and 450 feet, which are now available for sale.
