We are excited to announce a new addition to the team, Andrew Rutledge will be expanding our Caribbean cruising yacht division.

Andrew has been a full time liveaboard cruiser for the last four years sailing on a Hanse 445 monohull and now a Nautitech 46 open catamaran in the Eastern and Western Caribbean. Growing up racing Coronado 15’s with his dad up and down the Pacific Northwest sailing has been a passion since his teen years. After selling his business in 2018 the time to follow a lifelong dream of evading Canadian winters and full time sailing presented itself. Deciding to sell everything to pursue this dream was a big leap of faith so his goal is to help other cruisers buy, sell or upgrade to the yacht of their dreams and live this lifestyle. With his previous experience as a commercial pilot, retail sales, and now being a full time cruiser, the transition to yacht broker brings a lot of his skills together to help other Caribbean Cruisers.

You can call Andrew by Phone or WhatsApp on +1 250 417 7055
