33rd Annual IYBA Awards Dinner | Galati Award Winners
At the 33rd Annual International Yacht Broker Awards Dinner held on January 25, Carmine Galati Sr. was presented the Certified Professional Yacht Brokers’ (CPYB) Chairman’s Award for his service and support of continuing education.
The IYBA was created in 1987 to unite those engaged in the yacht brokerage business for the purpose of promoting professionalism and cooperation among its members and to promote and maintain a high standard of conduct in the yacht brokerage business. The organization is made up of over 1450 individual members representing over 400 businesses.
When speaking about the Chairman’s Award, Staley Weidman, chairman of the CPYB program had this to say: “This award represents the highest level of commitment to truly elevating the professionalism of the yacht brokerage industry. Carmine sets a fine example of how breaking paradigms of the typical yacht brokerage-house format benefits the buying public and any member of the industry doing business with his firm.”
