Broward Marine is a ship builder began business as a refit and repair facility and delivered their first yacht in 1953 in South Florida.  Another notable delivery was to the owner of Jim Beam Distilleries in 1958.

With over 300 Broward Yachts built and a popular following over the years for owners and their families cruising every major yachting market in North America and beyond.

Their all aluminum series went into production in the 1970s and saw the first ever triple diesel engine yacht built with their 92 ft M/Y Jervet.    Another fascinating delivery was  the 112 foot M/Y Britannia with triple Detroits for a blistering 43 knot speed in the late 1980s. In the 1990s other deliveries included the tri-deck M/Y Pegasus, also a triple engine yacht in 130 feet, and the 156 foot M/Y Bubba Too as the largest US aluminum delivery at that time.  (Source: The-Triton com, Boat International, shipbuildinghistory com)
