Alexis Depeille

Sales Consultant - Brisbane

Hailing from Provence, where his family has been rooted in the wine industry since 1886, Alexis brings a wealth of expertise across diverse industries, underpinned by a unique global perspective.

After completing his education at a military academy and serving in the French Army, Alexis transitioned into sales and management, taking on leadership roles in the security sector in both London and Paris. He later played a pivotal role in the growth of a professional e-learning language business in Paris, serving as Partner and International Development Director, where his strategic insights drove international success.

Driven by a deep connection to the ocean, Alexis and his family embarked on a transformative life journey, purchasing a Fountaine Pajot Helia 44. After rigorous offshore sail training, they spent three unforgettable years exploring the Mediterranean, crossing the Atlantic to the Caribbean, and navigating the Turks and Caicos, as well as the U.S. East Coast.

Upon arriving in New Zealand seven years ago, Alexis diversified his expertise further, founding import businesses, opening a French cafÃ© in Auckland, and returning to his roots by working with a leading wine company based in the South Island.

Now based in Brisbane, Alexis combines his entrepreneurial spirit, global experience, and passion for yachting to support clients at The Yacht Sales Co., helping them realise their boating dreams.

Being in real estate sales for 21 years, I was ambivalent and nervous re buying my first yacht and spending so much money. I purchased the vessel and then cooled off. At this point, I believed the relationship with Alexis would have gone south, as no sales person likes someone cooling off. This is where Alex won me over – he was incredibly understanding and explained my position to the boat owners. Some months passed and I contacted Alexis again due to his professionalism, this time regarding another yacht – however, we began to discuss the yacht I had originally put the offer on. I renegotiated some terms and ended up buying the original yacht !! Alex is a tremendous asset to this business. I admit I can be high maintenance myself, however Alexis’s candour and demeanour always kept my nerves at bay. He took my calls night and day. I can honestly say that Alexis sold me this yacht – the yacht did not sell itself. I would not have purchased it without his intricate knowledge of sailing. Not once did he sell me anything – he was just enthusiastic and believed this was a great yacht to purchase. Of course, I had the yacht pulled out of the water and surveyed. If I sell this yacht down the track, Alexis will be selling it. He is direct and honest, and when you’re spending this type of money you really do need this, I cannot deal with bullshit! I feel I have forged a small friendship with Alexis and I truly wish him all the best.

Our whole transaction was handled in a most professional and timely manner. It was also very cordial with Alexis going above and beyond to deliver a good outcome for both parties.
