Catamaran Guru Brokerage

Catamaran Guru Brokerage features high quality ocean going yachts. Our experience with all types of vessels evolves not only from our sailing experience but also from our own experience in boat building and yacht design. We have completely built our first monohull, a Bruce Roberts 45 and assisted with the building and design of our two catamarans, an Island Spirit 401 and a Prout 45.

Catamaran Guru also specializes in the sale of used monohulls and catamarans meeting the luxury, cruising and performance markets. Special deals on used catamarans are often posted on this site. We are licensed and bonded brokers in Florida and we are known in the industry for our high business ethics and practices.

Yacht Management Programs & Tax Issues

Catamaran Guru offers yacht management programs in the charter fleets of Dream Yacht Charters, the biggest privately owned charter company in the world.

You could dramatically reduce the costs of ownership by simply taking advantage of the current tax laws while creating equity in your new yacht by legitimately diverting some of the taxes that you are already paying to your yacht business. You could own your yacht in a fraction of the time and at a fraction of the cost.

Stephen Cockcroft is one of the very few experts on this subject in the country and have helped many boat owners to successfully navigate the path to a successful yacht business, in complete compliance with all tax laws.
