Mike Busacca

Mike began his career in yachting in 1983 at Broward Marine, where he started as a skilled tradesman and steadily rose through the ranks to become General Manager. During his tenure, he played an instrumental role in the construction of more than 60 semi-custom yachts ranging from 90 to 150 feet, building a strong foundation in yacht design, construction, and operations. He went on to hold senior executive leadership positions within major marine organizations, serving as Executive Vice President and later President of a leading yacht sales division.

In 2011, Mike joined Fraser as U.S. Commercial Director and was quickly promoted to Chief Operating Officer of the United States. In this capacity, he oversaw Yacht Sales, Yacht Management, Charter Management, Charter Retail, and The Crew Network across North America. Under his leadership, Fraser achieved the number-one global ranking in yacht brokerage, securing the largest worldwide market share in both sales value and units sold.

In 2026, Mike was appointed Executive Vice President, Chief Operating Officer & Chief Commercial Officer – Worldwide. In his expanded global role, he leads Fraser’s commercial strategy and operational performance across all regions, driving sustainable growth, strengthening cross-regional collaboration, and upholding the highest standards of service throughout the organization.

Widely respected within the industry, Mike is a longtime member of the International Yacht Brokers Association and a committed community advocate. For more than 20 years, he has supported—and later served as Chairperson of—the Boys & Girls Clubs Yacht Rendezvous Charity Event, helping raise more than $30 million for at-risk youth in Broward County. In recognition of his contributions to the marine industry, he was honored with the Marine Industries Association Award of Excellence in 2019.

Mike’s integrity, strategic leadership, and client-first philosophy continue to shape Fraser’s global success and reinforce its position as an industry leader.
