North America’s 3rd highest booking broker

Going to boat shows around the world is breathtaking and hard work at the same time. The organizers reward the top ten brokers with complimentary inscribed broker bags in which to place their dock floor plans, ball point pens and writing pads for various notes. I also use my broker's bag to house my camera that i use to take photos of the yacht and crews. The reason for the broker bags is to thank those hard working booking brokers and to tell the crews on board each yacht, that this is one of the top booking brokers they have on board.

Starting from about 2001 Barrington-Hall broke into the top 3 highest booking brokers and this continued until 2015, when we changed our direction slightly. We find that quality is far better than quantity, so we selected the lower priced high-end mono-hulls and the lower priced good quality catamarans and the lower priced quality power boats and decided not to venture below those Fresh benchmarks. It is so important that our guests enjoy THEIR vacation without any problems. We have found this to be a far better way to do business but we do not get every client who comes to us for answers, but we remain in the top 5 booking brokers.

A wonderful reason for success is THAT we concentrate on fully crewed yacht vacations worldwide, we do not do villa rentals, no bare boat Yacht rentals, no captain only rentals. We have also changed our industry, where we have some of the crews contract directly to us as well as the owner. This is the first time this has been done and the one reason is to get better crew to serve our guests. The crew represent Barrington-Hall so they better do a better job for our guests.

What is our job as a charter broker? It is just one simple fact; our guests must shed tears of joy on their last day of vacation. Nothing else.

Our service to our guests today is tomorrow’s reputation.
