Our Story
About Commonwealth Boat Brokers
Founded in 1988, Commonwealth Boat Brokers began as a specialized bank repossession servicing company focused on recovering and remarking bank owned vessels. Built on integrity and performance, the company quickly earned a reputation for professionalism and results.
In 2000, current owner Harper King acquired the company and expanded it's vision. What started as a marine recovery firm grew into a nationwide brokerage serving both financial institutions and private sellers. By 2002, Commonwealth expanded into recreational boat consignment, and in 2006, launched its aircraft division. Today, the company also leads in RV sales and consignment.
With more than three decades of experience, Commonwealth is now a national leader in the sale of boats, RVs, and aircraft.
