Blake Tice
Sales Professional
Blake Tice has spent nearly his entire career in the marine industry, with the majority of his work focused on marketing, technology, and management. Before becoming a Yacht Broker, Blake spent six years as the Marketing Manager for Bluewater, where he coordinated the advertisement of new and brokerage listings, developed print and digital marketing plans, and managed the overall marketing direction for the entire company. He worked in tandem with Bluewater brokers throughout the East Coast to get exposure for their listings, and ultimately connect buyers and sellers.
As a Yacht Broker, Blake takes a digital-first strategy to marketing his listings, putting extra emphasis on creating digitally optimized yacht listings and leveraging tools like social media, MLS advertising, videos, and paid search advertising. He recognizes that the yacht market is constantly changing, and he puts in the effort to make sure that his listings stand out from the crowd. Blake is a graduate of Old Dominion University, with a degree in English and Marketing, which gives him an advantage on creating compelling and well-optimized listings. In addition to this, he has completed formal training through the Yacht Broker Institute and is also an FAA-licensed drone pilot.
Blake is a native of the Hampton Roads area, where he established his love for the water. Growing up on the bay, he developed a passion for boating and fishing, along with a genuine appreciation for the outdoors. When away from work, Blake enjoys running, camping, traveling, and spending time with his wife, Kelsey, and daughter, Adelynne.
