Founder and Yacht Broker
Norbert Szilágyi
Sustainable luxury, done well.
I founded Ethical Yacht Broker to bring greater transparency, ethical sourcing, and responsible business practices to luxury yachting — connecting clients with builders and trusted partners who share those values.
The Independent Advantage
How we re-engineer luxury yachting through direct procurement, conflict insulation, and transparent escrow protection.
01 // Financial Efficiency
~35% Markup Efficiency & Variable Sourcing
Legacy yards can carry substantial overhead and distribution costs. We connect buyers directly with master shipbuilders across Europe, Oceania, Türkiye and the USA at true cost.
02 // Complimentary Media
Premium Visuals & Photography
Complimentary yacht footage video and professional photography during our first meeting—no strings attached.
03 // Ethical Insulation
Conflict-Free Network
Mainstream conglomerates are often linked to global conflicts. We curate our fleet strictly from boutique yards, keeping your portfolio clean.
04 // Capital Protection
Insulated Escrow
Capital transfers execute strictly through tier-one banks with regulatory oversight. Funds remain sheltered until sea trials are certified.
Sourced Fleet
Selectively sourced off-market opportunities with indicative value benchmarks. Pricing is approximate for market orientation; detailed specifications follow verified consultation.

2. Information We Collect
Identity and contact information such as name, email, telephone number, company and professional role.
Yachting and transaction information, including yacht preferences, budget ranges, project requirements, shipyard interests and communications relevant to a potential transaction.
Information contained in correspondence, forms, enquiries and documents voluntarily supplied to us.
Technical information such as IP address, browser/device information, pages visited and consent preferences, subject to applicable cookie choices.
3. Why We Use Information
Depending on the circumstances and applicable law, we may process information to respond to enquiries; identify suitable yachts, shipyards, designers or counterparties; facilitate introductions; administer brokerage and co-broker relationships; negotiate or perform agreements; comply with legal obligations; prevent fraud or misuse; protect confidential business interests; and improve our website and services.
4. European Privacy Rights
Where EU/EEA or UK data-protection law applies, you may have rights including access, rectification, erasure, restriction, objection, portability and withdrawal of consent, subject to applicable legal limitations. You may also have the right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority.
5. California Privacy
Where California privacy law applies, eligible individuals may have additional rights concerning access, correction, deletion and certain disclosures or uses of personal information. We do not sell personal information in the ordinary meaning of that term. Requests may be submitted using the contact details below.
6. Sharing Information
We may share information, where appropriate and lawful, with yacht owners, buyers, sellers, shipyards, naval architects, designers, surveyors, lawyers, escrow or financial professionals, co-brokers, service providers and technology providers involved in a requested transaction or service. We seek to limit disclosures to what is reasonably necessary for the relevant purpose.
7. International Transfers
Because yacht brokerage is international, information may be processed in the United States, Europe and other jurisdictions. Where applicable, we use lawful transfer mechanisms and appropriate safeguards required by data-protection law.
8. Retention & Security
We retain information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose collected, contractual and business needs, dispute resolution, legal obligations and legitimate interests.

This website is operated by Hot Reality Productions LLC, a California limited liability company. Ethical Yacht Broker is a brand of Hot Reality Productions LLC. California registration number: 202033610588. The business may conduct brokerage, sourcing, referral and related activities with clients and professional counterparties in Europe and other jurisdictions.
1. Website Information
Website content is provided for general information and preliminary brokerage discussion only. Yacht specifications, pricing, availability, build slots, delivery estimates, savings estimates and other commercial indications may change and should be independently verified before reliance or commitment.
2. No Contract by Website Use
Browsing this website, submitting an enquiry, receiving an introduction or exchanging preliminary information does not by itself create a brokerage mandate, agency, fiduciary relationship, purchase agreement, shipyard contract, commission entitlement or other contractual relationship. Binding obligations arise only from applicable written agreements signed by the relevant parties.
3. Brokerage & Referral Relationships
EYB may act as buyer representative, seller representative, introducing broker, sourcing intermediary or co-broker, depending on the specific engagement. The role, authority, scope of services, commission and payment mechanics should be confirmed in writing for each transaction or referral.
4. New-Build Yard Referrals & Non-Circumvention
Where EYB introduces a client, prospect, beneficial owner, family office, advisor or other counterparty to a new-build shipyard, designer, project team or other industry participant, the parties may enter into a separate non-circumvention and commission agreement (“NCA”).
Where such an agreement applies, the parties may agree that an introduced counterparty, opportunity, project, yard relationship or transaction is protected for the agreed period and that the parties will not intentionally bypass the introducing party in order to avoid an agreed fee or commission. The exact protected parties, transaction scope, duration, commission basis, payment trigger and permitted direct dealings must be defined in the signed NCA.
A website notice is not intended to replace a signed NCA and does not, by itself, impose a non-circumvention obligation. Any commission entitlement should be evidenced by the applicable written agreement and the circumstances of the introduction.
5. Co-Brokerage &
Website content does not by itself create a commission entitlement or non-circumvention obligation.
Any fee, commission, referral arrangement or protection applies only to the extent agreed in a
separate written agreement signed by the relevant parties.
Commission
EYB may cooperate with other licensed or professional brokers, central agencies, shipyards or representatives. In a co-broker transaction, commissions may be shared or allocated between participating parties according to a written co-brokerage agreement, listing agreement, referral agreement or transaction-specific confirmation.
Unless expressly agreed otherwise in writing, no party should assume that EYB will be responsible for another broker’s compensation, or that a commission is payable merely because an introduction occurred. Commission calculations, splits, VAT/tax treatment, invoicing and payment timing should be documented before a transaction closes.
6. Conflicts & Transparency
Where EYB may receive compensation from a seller, shipyard, co-broker or other counterparty, the nature of that compensation may be disclosed as required by applicable law and the relevant engagement. Clients should ask for clarification where a potential conflict or compensation arrangement could affect the scope of representation.
7. External Websites
Links to third-party websites are provided for convenience. EYB does not control and is not responsible for the content, security, privacy practices or availability of third-party websites.
8. Limitation of Responsibility
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, EYB is not responsible for losses arising solely from reliance on preliminary website information, third-party information or unverified yacht specifications. Nothing here excludes liability that cannot lawfully be excluded.
9. Governing Law
Unless a signed transaction-specific agreement provides otherwise, the relationship concerning this website is intended to be governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Mandatory laws applicable to users in the EU/EEA, UK or another jurisdiction are not intended to be displaced where they cannot lawfully be excluded.
