Vassilis Fotilas

Vassilis is one of a select few yacht brokers in the world today to have received the coveted Richard Earp Award for outstanding fair, ethical and transparent professional client service in yachting.

Trained and mentored by the man whose name the Award honours, Vassilis joined Fraser in 2007. Having also served as Commercial Director for two years overseeing the sales and charter operations for Fraser in Europe, Asia and Oceania, he turned his attention and dedication back to the role of sales broker.

Vassilis has successfully concluded over €210 million worth of yacht sales averaging 40m (131’) in length, built by no less than 14 different yards and ranging from 24m (79’) to 60m (197’).

He has acted for clients of 11 different nationalities including several prominent yachtsmen, financial institutions and shipyards. Some 40% of his transactions are repeat clients and on several occasions he has represented both the Buyer and Seller.

Born in Athens, Greece, Vassilis attended Gordonstoun boarding school in Scotland and subsequently read Sports Science at Stirling University obtaining a BSc Honours Degree. Following the completion of his military duties in the Hellenic Navy, he returned to the UK to obtain an MSc in Sports and Leisure Management from Loughborough University.

Whether you are selling or purchasing, working with Vassilis ensures you have at your side a broker with an in-depth knowledge of the global yacht market and someone who consistently delivers results with an ethos and tradition of respect and transparency.
