Joe wanted to give his yacht insurance clients the personal touch and attention that a large corporation is unable to provide, so in 2010 he founded Kolisch Marine Insurance, headquartered in Coral Gables. As word spread among yacht and boat owners alike, Kolisch Marine Insurance grew quickly and soon opened a branch office in Fort Lauderdale.
As a Miami native, Joe grew up sailing in Biscayne Bay, the Atlantic Ocean and Caribbean Sea gaining extensive experience in local and offshore sailboat racing. Joe is active in many other highly competitive sports, including kayaking, triathlons, bicycle racing, and long distance running. Joe Kolisch is on the Board of Directors of the Marine Council of Miami, an active member of the Florida Yacht Brokers Association and a member of The Mariners Club. Additionally, he is a former licensed USCG Captain with years of experience at sea — all while being renowned by all around him as a genuinely great guy who cares about his family, clients, and staff.
