Fredrik Filipsson is a co-founder of Kings Hospitality LLC and an editor of Yachts For Kings. He has spent roughly twenty years as a serial entrepreneur, founding, building, and running multiple businesses across travel and hospitality — including companies grown past the million-dollar mark. That operator's background is the reason this site reads yacht deals the way a buyer should: follow the money, read the contract twice, and assume the broker's catalogue is selling, not informing.
What Fredrik covers
Fredrik leads the money-and-mechanics side of Yachts For Kings: the brokerage and buyer's guide, the cost guides, and the methodology the whole site is built on. He set the original review checklist and the editorial firewall that keeps referral revenue out of the rankings, documented on how we make money.
Experience and expertise
- Roughly 20 years as a serial entrepreneur across travel and hospitality
- Founder of multiple businesses, several scaled past seven figures in revenue
- Co-founder of the For Kings editorial network (Yachts, Villas, Hotels, Restaurants, Bars For Kings)
- Focus areas: yacht brokerage, charter economics, contract structure, and the commercial side of luxury travel
How Fredrik works
He writes from a base in Florida and reviews the higher-stakes brokerage and contract pages personally. Where a guide turns on a legal or tax point, he cites the primary source — MYBA contract terms, registry records, VAT rules — rather than asking the reader to take his word for it.
