Issy Perera, Apex Marine's owner, is a long-time Miami resident and life-long boating enthusiast who has owned many boats and yachts through the years. Issy purchased his first Tiara in 1999 and upgraded to a larger Tiara in 2003. He retired from the corporate world in 2007, after a successful business career in the telecommunications and utility infrastructure sector. Issy was one of three founding executives that took a small privately owned Miami-based company public and grew it into a $1 billion company in five years.

With his passion for boating and realizing he missed the challenges of running a business, Issy came out of retirement in May of 2009 and opened a yacht service facility in Ft. Lauderdale. Following in the footsteps of a prior career, he opened a second yacht service facility in Stuart, Florida, in October 2011, and a third yacht service facility in April 2014 in Pompano Beach. When presented with an opportunity to become Tiara Yachts dealer, Issy didn't hesitate. In October 2014 Apex Marine was awarded the Tiara Yachts dealership for Miami-Dade and Monroe counties. In August of 2016, another S2 Yachts brand was added to the portfolio when the Pursuit dealership for Miami-Dade was awarded to Apex Marine.

Issy has a bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering from the University of Miami, a Masters in Business Administration from Florida International University, and a Master's of Science degree from the Sloan School of Management at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
