Philip O. Young, Owner
Email
Phil Young, owner and operator, has been involved with
Young’s Boat Yard since the time he could hold a paint
brush in his hand. His father, Harry Young, started the
business in 1948 with the idea of having a place to work
on his own boat as well as providing a place for others
to keep and care for a boat. Phil graduated from the
University of Maryland in 1981 with a Bachelor of
Science degree in business management and continued
with Young’s Boat Yard as owner and operator,
incorporating the business in 2005. He is involved in
every aspect of Young’s Boat Yard from travelift
operator, sales, bookkeeping, maintenance, boat
repairs, and boat restoration. When Phil isn’t working in
the yard, he is usually “messing about in boats” himself
—restoring his own boat, fishing, crabbing, racing and
sailing with family and friends.
Continuing the legacy of his father, Phil strives to
provide a place for the do-it-yourself boater to
enjoy having a boat and being out on the water.
“There is nothing -- absolutely nothing -- half so much worth doing as simply messing about in boats."
– Kenneth Grahame, The Wind in the Willows
