The CPYB designation is the most prestigious accreditation a yacht sales professional can earn within the recreational marine industry and is valid for three years from the anniversary of the exam date. “I am thrilled to have earned the CPYB designation– becoming one of the few in the industry to have been recognized by the YBAA and to be the 1st FYG broker to be accredited!” says Captain James Fachtmann – Top Producing Broker 2013 & 2014 for Florida Yacht Group, “Earning the CPYB designation is another mark of prestige that will help set me apart from the crowd in the marketplace. Most importantly, becoming a CPYB will better help serve my clients (and fellow brokers) by achieving their yachting goals and dreams with excellence.”
