Mark Connors

Sales Professional

An avid fisherman and accomplished captain, Mark has spent his entire working life in the marine industry. His deep passion for boating and fishing started during his childhood while spending summers on Harker’s Island, NC. After attending Hampden-Sydney in Virginia and Washington College in Maryland, he began his career in Annapolis working for the Annapolis Boat Shows, and was instrumental in the development of the successful Annapolis Powerboat School.

Afterwards, Mark moved to Wilmington, NC where he formed Connors Marine Services, LLC. During this time, Mark offered a busy yacht delivery and maintenance service before becoming a broker for Baker Marine. In 2001, Baker Marine named Mark as the Manager of their newly opened office in Virginia Beach, VA.

Mark was recruited by Jarrett Bay Yacht Sales in 2006 as Broker-in-Charge of the Virginia office once they acquired the dealership for both Hatteras Yachts and Grand Banks. A full-time broker since 1998, Mark has had experience with a wide variety of boat manufacturers including Hatteras, Grand Banks, CABO, Tiara, Bertram, Post, and Viking. A long-time member of the Norfolk Yacht and Country Club, Mark is as much at ease with his cruising customers as he is chasing billfish offshore. Mark, his wife Nelee, two daughters, and dog Skipper live in the Larchmont section of Norfolk, VA. The family enjoys spending time together at sporting events, cultural shows, the beach, and of course, boating and fishing!
