From Wall Street to Shipyard with Albert Franco

Find Yachts for Sale on YachtWay.com From New York private equity to the heart of the boating world in Miami Beach. In this episode of the YachtWay Podcast, Albert ( Founder of PowerBoat USA and Manari Yachts ) shares how he went from investing in boats to building them. We dive into Skipper Powerboats - high-performance RIBs known for their 4-step hull, stability, and dayboat layout - and then into Albert's latest venture, Manari Yachts : a limited-production brand built in Turkey with a mini-megayacht philosophy focused on craftsmanship, detail, and owner experience. This episode is about quality over hype, smart growth, and what it really takes to build a yacht brand today.
