Long time GTA broker Reg Bates is joining NSNG and will be dividing his time between downtown Toronto and the Caribbean. Believe it or not, it’s been 17 years since Reg moved to St. Maarten. His extended time in the islands has given Reg extensive knowledge of the unique Caribbean market, where he has served customers looking to expand their sailing experience by graduating to a bluewater cruising boat experience.
Reg is very familiar with the logistics of registering, mooring, storing and maintaining vessels in the Caribbean. In addition, he can offer his customers custodial care services for their vessel offering people in Ontario the chance to ‘keep a boat in the Caribbean in the summer’ and fly down and use it in the winter.
Reg, born and raised in Toronto’s Beaches neighbourhood, operated out of the Outer Harbour Marina for many years and brings to this affiliation many years of experience in the Canadian Market. As for the St. Maarten location, Reg will be based at Port Cupecoy Marina, on the Dutch side of St. Maarten, widely recognized as one of the finest Marina properties on the Island.
Reg will be joining his colleagues at the North South Nautical Group Booth [#1737] at the Toronto International Boat Show.
