Mike Burns, president of North South Nautical Group is pleased to announce that Patrick Kwasniewski has joined the brokerage team serving the South-Western Ontario area.

Patrick began his career as a yacht broker as a boat-buyer. In 2019, he and his father decided to jointly purchase their first boat. After 13 viewings, as Patrick shares, ‘we found the worst possible boat and decided to rebuild her from the stringers-up’. Now launched, they continue to modify and tinker with her as they get new ideas!

And that’s all it took for Patrick to fall in love with boating and the boating community. Operating out of the Port Dover area on Lake Erie, Patrick wants to share his passion of boating with others and unite boat-buyers and boating enthusiasts with the vessel of their dreams.

“We are delighted to have Patrick join the team. He has learned about the business by buying-in, and brings with him a number of great insights,” stated NSYS President Mike Burns. “He is going to make a wonderful addition to the NSNG team.”

Patrick will be serving area of South-Western Ontario working out of Port Dover and can be reached at 289-440-2611 or patrick@northsouthyachtsales.com.

Specializing in the sale of pre-owned power and sailing yachts, North South Nautical Group Inc. has brokers located in Port Credit (Head Office), St. Catharine’s, Georgian Bay, Kawartha Lakes, Eastern Ontario and the Caribbean (St. Maarten). NSNG is the first in Canada, and one of a few select yacht sales operations to attain the rating of “Endorsed Brokerage” by the Certified Professional Yacht Broker program.

North South Yacht Sales is always looking to expand their brokerage services across Ontario. Currently there is an opening covering Eastern Ontario. Anyone interested should reach out to Mike Burns directly.
