Henry Prolo's connection to boating started before he could even walk — his parents put him on a boat headed home to Fire Island, Long Island, at just three days old. That early introduction to life on the water grew into a genuine passion, one that's carried him through work as a dock master on Fire Island, time spent as a mate, and eventually into yacht sales, where he's been a broker since 2017.
Now based in North Palm Beach, Florida, where he's lived for the past 12 years, Henry specializes in center consoles, sportfish boats, motoryachts under 80', and commercial vessels. But for Henry, the job has never been just about closing a sale. He's focused on guiding his clients in the right direction — not chasing trends — and building relationships that last well beyond the transaction. Whether a client bought their boat five years ago or five months ago, Henry believes in always being there for them.
He's backed by a team of professional, upscale brokers who work together rather than against each other, and he takes pride in going above and beyond for his clients even after a sale is complete. Henry likes to treat his clients like family, making sure they feel comfortable and confident that their investment is in good hands. If an issue ever comes up, his phone is always on — and he's ready to jump in the car or on a plane to take care of business.
Outside of work, Henry enjoys spending time with his German Shepherd, Lily, heading out to the sandbar, diving, and doing gun training and drilling on Sundays. Time with family and friends means everything to him as well.
