Yachtmakler Bremen – Thomas Thiel

Thomas Thiel was born on 7 April 1977 in Rostock, the youngest son of a seafaring family. His close connection to water sports was instilled in him by his father and his proximity to the Baltic Sea.

After leaving school, Thomas Thiel began his commercial training at Deutsche Bahn AG, which he successfully completed and was immediately assigned responsible tasks by his employer. Shortly after completing his training, he became a general youth and trainee representative at DB-Fernverkehr and later continued his career at DB AG in Bremen.

But after just a few years, Thomas Thiel was drawn back to his roots and began working as a boat salesman at Marina Oberweser. There he not only learnt sales skills, but also acquired knowledge about motorboats, sailing boats, boat engines and the technical equipment of the vessels. At Marina Oberweser, he sold over 100 new and used boats, including the Quicksilver brand.

Over time, Thomas Thiel's goals changed and in 2013 he finally became self-employed and founded his company, YACHTMAKLER Bremen, with its own boat hire and small fleet in Bremen's Überseestadt district.

At the end of 2014, he began working with the renowned company Drettmann Yachts GmbH in Bremen. This positive cooperation also brought new experiences in the area of new and used boats from 50 feet.

Thomas Thiel became a Jeanneau partner in 2015 and has been a Jeanneau dealer for Bremen and the North Sea ever since. In 2021, the new company headquarters in Bremen Hemelingen, Arberger Hafendamm 3, 28309 Bremen, was realised. In addition to a beautiful office, a hall space is now also available. As an authorised, official specialist dealer for the brands JEANNEAU, Zodiac and Yamaha engines, YACHTMAKLER Bremen GmbH offers all services.

The new brand BOOTSTEPPICH24.DE by YACHTMAKLER Bremen GmbH was also founded in 2021 and is already successfully positioned on the market with high-quality boat carpets.

Thomas Thiel: ‘I am 100% and more behind my profession as a yacht broker - it is my absolute dream job. I meet a lot of very interesting people in my day-to-day work and working with customers in my profession of water sports fulfils me. For me, the customer always comes first. I make sure that I personally accompany my customers from the very beginning to the handover of the boat. Even after a project has been completed, I am always on hand to offer my customers help and advice on their new boat. I'm already looking forward to the next project!’
