Brian Kott

Owner

Although my background is in medicine and business, our yearly family boating adventures ultimately planted the seed for Lindell Yachts.  My wife, Julie, and two children, Lauren and Nathaniel, spent many summers and winters together on a boat - enjoying one another and focusing on God’s creation.  It was foundational for each of us and played a significant role in defining our family.  Now 25 and 22, the “kids” still long for these adventures and time together.  And mom and dad love every minute of it!

Mark started life as a third generation commercial and charter fisherman in northwest Washington and has logged tens of thousands of miles at sea.
