About Admiral 

Admiral is a small core-team of talented people obsessed with making the ownership experience better for boaters.

The same service, attention and ease, at a fiftieth of the cost. 

Today, we work with high-end marinas, communities and brands to deliver that experience to hundreds of owners across South Florida. Every boater needs help, and we’re rapidly scaling to new markets and marinas, and we’re just getting started! 

Our Founding team has helped build companies like Uber, Bloomberg, Amazon and Safe Harbor. We’re laser-focused on creating an exceptional marketplace, service experience, team, and place to work. And, we’re continuously in search of strong talent and experience to help us get there. 

We have some ambitious growth goals this year, and the ideal person sees this as an opportunity to grow with the company while helping level-up everyone else around them. If this sounds exciting to you, reach out!

Why Admiral? 

We’re Shaking Up the Boating Space. Our goal is to transform the modern ownership experience of boat owners across the world through efficient ops, convenient tech, and incredible vendor experiences; paving the way for a multi-billion dollar marketplace. Every boater needs Admiral. With the force of our core team, dozens of top brands and hundreds of happy boaters, we’re only scratching the surface. 

We’re Growing Fast. Last year we grew revenue over 10X—and no, that’s not a typo! We’re still a small, dynamic team, and this is your chance to join at the ground floor to help us build something really special. 

We’re in Good Company. We have solidified strategic relationships with brands like, and owners of, Hinckley, Feadship, ChrisCraft, Dension, MJM, and Beneteau to name a few. They too want to see the boat ownership experience evolve in alignment with our vision, and have directly supported us in the progress we’ve made in our early markets.

We All Own What We’re Building. Everyone who works at Admiral will be a part of the ownership structure via equity compensation. We want you to own the company, and treat this like it’s yours… because it is! 

Are you ready?
