Glen Appelbaum

Glen hails from South Africa, where he worked at Merrill Lynch in Johannesburg. Having always been interested in boating, he took a 5-week sailing course in 1995 and did a 600-mile round-trip race, and in 1996, he bought a boat in Cape Town and sailed across the Atlantic to the Caribbean.

After cruising for a couple of years between the islands and the Chesapeake, he made Charleston, SC his home. Since 2000, he has been completely immersed in everything marine, from living on his boat and doing charters to towing with TowBoatU.S. and racing a Beneteau 47. He also worked as a broker at a sailboat dealer before selling boats at his own brokerage.

Now working out of Denison Yachting's Charleston office, Glen’s focus is his clients. His goal is to make them as happy with their experience on the water as he has been with his.
