“I have found Burgess to be discreet, trustworthy and professional in all my dealings with them. I would highly recommend Burgess to other yacht owners.”

Yacht owner (71m / 233ft)

The company was founded in 1975 by Nigel Burgess, a renowned solo ocean racer with an obsessive eye for detail and a passion for the sea. Nigel was a pioneer. He had to innovate and think originally to surpass the competition and drive his company to the top of a market that he helped to create. Nigel succeeded because he always put the client first. 

Along with the urge to outperform and overdeliver, the trust and integrity that defined Nigel are embedded in the Burgess culture and reach into every corner of our personalised client services. As a Burgess client, you always come first, whether that’s charter, brokerage, yacht building, management or finance. That’s the Burgess difference.
