In addition to helping their clients find the perfect boat, part of Islandside Yacht Sales’ mission has been to give back to the local boating community. In pursuit of this goal, Islandside Yacht Sales owner and founder Joe Sciuto looked to his close friendship with Andy Herlihy, Director of the Community Boating Center of New Bedford.

Proud to be the only partnership of this nature in the local yacht brokerage industry, Islandside donates a portion of all sales to the Community Boating Center. The funds help fuel the Center’s efforts to create and foster a safe environment for kids to learn socially, emotionally, and physically through fun and engaging marine-related activities.
