Shelter Island Yachts Names United Yacht Sales An Official Dealer

United Yacht Sales, the world’s largest yacht brokerage firm with more than 250 yacht brokers, have been named an official dealer of the Shelter Island Yachts runabout built by CH Marine. UYS broker Mordy Miltz will be a brand representative and manage the relationship with the builder for the company.

United Yacht Sales will represent the Florida market as its territory for the builder.

Shelter Island Runabouts, designed and built right here in the U.S. by CH Marine, are hand-crafted, custom-built 38-foot downeast boats. “We use only the finest materials; Kevlar hulls, custom stainless steel deck fittings and hand selected teak,” says the shipyard. “The hardware, system components and machinery we use have all been selected for quality and longevity. If it costs a little more, then so be it; we do not compromise.”

“I am very excited to bring together Shelter Island Runabout to the market with United Yacht Sales,” said Mordy. “CH Marine has an excellent reputation in boat building for the last 30 years. Anyone that owns a downeast or loves that style of boating is going to want to get on board the Shelter Island 38.”

For pricing and availability of Shelter Island inventory or build slots, please contact Mordy Miltz at (516) 606-1282 or at [email protected]. 

The Shelter Island 38 is offered in 2 different deck layouts. Each style is offered in a convertible or hardtop and can be made with either inboard or outboard power.

1. 38 Runabout – Traditional downeast runabout with a full cabin, head, berth and galley.
2. 38 Runabout With Outboards – Same hull but offers more seating in the bow, a wet bar and a cabin with a berth and head.
3. 38 Runabout FS – Same hull as the other 38’s but offers more seating, choice of inboard/outboard power
