5 Fort Lauderdale Homes Perfect for Yacht Lovers

Fort Lauderdale is often considered the yachting capital of the world, and for good reason. With more than 300 miles of inland waterways and 50,000 registered yachts, Fort Lauderdale is the perfect home for water lovers. It makes sense then that the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show would be hosted in this boating Mecca, returning in 2019 for a 60th year and running from October 30 through November 3 and where Douglas Elliman proudly returns as a sponsor.
