Euan MacDonald

Our skipper! Euan has built Australiawide Boat Sales into one of the most successful boat brokerages in Australia. His formidable knowledge of all things nautical is the back-bone of the business honed from years sailing and travelling the world on Super-yachts and since arriving in Australia, cruising much of the local waters. His love of classic sailing vessels is evident with some of the beautiful timber yachts he's lovingly restored and more often than not raced with phenomenal success.

With a young family and his dedication to the local sailing community he's become something of a feature around the Manly fore-shore and no matter how busy is always happy to offer help and advice to anyone sharing his passion for sailing. Euan can often be seen sneaking out of the harbour aboard his classic Tasman Seabird, Cherana, for some fun in the bay.

Detlef Bauer

Unlike the rest of the Australiawide team Detlef got into boats relatively late, beginning in his early 30's whilst working as a television producer, but when the bug hit there was no stopping him. Sailing out of the CYCA he cut his teeth on racing with numerous major blue water events under his belt. Detlef has also delivered yachts throughout the Pacific and Asia accumulating over 40,000 sea miles.

Fine food and wine is another passion and you can be confident that any time on land or water with the debonair Detlef will usually include a great meal and an even greater bottle of wine or two. Detlef is Mr Customer Service, and will always go the extra mile to ensure he exceeds his customers' expectations. Just check out his testimonials!
