Jean-Pierre Skov was born and raised in St. Croix, U.S.V.I. He grew up in the marine industry, starting with his dad’s charter company and boat yard on the East end of the Island. He captained charter boats in the Caribbean, competitively raced sailboats for the V.I. Olympic team, and worked for Hess Oil in the marine department as a tug captain of a 105’ ship handling/ocean-towing tug. In 1995, Jean-Pierre migrated to being a full-time yacht broker. His knowledge of the industry and yachts in general made this transition the perfect fit. He prides himself on developing his client relationships into friendships.
