Naos Yachts is the leading sailboat brokerage on the entire west coast of the United States for a reason - we are passionate about the sport of sailing and compassionate about the boat buying experience. Founded by offshore racer Charles-Etienne Devanneaux, who has mastered the art of crossing oceans and running a business at the same time, Naos is committed to the customer.

The team at Naos are all experienced (many professional) sailors who see sailing as more of a life-calling than a way to spend their recreational time. They don’t just sell… they advise, assist and aim to make buying a boat an exciting and pleasurable experience that becomes a cherished memory instead of an obstacle course of annoyance and difficulty.
