I wish to express my sincere thanks to Josh Johnson for the effort he put into our search for the perfect sail boat. We were referred to Josh from Craig Allison. We first met with Josh over a year ago. He was most patient in his determination to understand what our desires and needs were in a sailboat. We had just moved onto a canal in Bal Harbor and through his questions and showing us a variety of boats came to understand our desires.Months later we re contacted him saying we had narrowed it down some and raised our price range. After some discussion we made an appointment to see a few boats. While looking at a couple of boats, which he felt were in our window, he suggested we look at another boat which had just come on the market.

When he suggested the type of boat, we said that we had not been looking at that brand because we felt it would always be out of our price range he said it was an older boat but in perfect condition and in his opinion the perfect boat for our usage desires and budget.

After looking at Stardust, an Island Packet 31, we fell in love and it turned out to be the PERFECT boat for us.

Without Josh’s acumen we would never have found this boat. It is beautifully maintained and loaded with everything we could want.
Josh is extremely knowledgeable of all brands of boats and was able to help us compare the advantages and disadvantages of various boats.

I would recommend him to ANBODY looking for a personal fit for a boat.

He is patient, meticulous, knowledgeable, genteel and did I mention patient?

Even after the sale when I had questions he directed us to the right professionals and even contacted the sellers for information I needed.

I cannot say enough about his professionalism.

Plus which I made a new sailing friend.

I will be happy to recommend him to anyone if you have them call me.

Best Regards
