“I recently undertook the yacht charter broking course, and it was a fantastic guide to the industry. The course provided a solid foundation, covering key aspects of yacht charters, client management, and industry insights. The content was well-structured and easy to follow, making it perfect for anyone new or looking to break into the industry. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to get started in this exciting industry and personal feel in a great position to get into the industry myself”

“I went through the entire program and definitely gained a lot from the processes and deal structures, especially regarding APA, VAT, and payment timelines. The step by step process of engaging with prospects, sending notes to CAs, exploring multiple options, and managing the back and forth really stood out.”

“Hi Jochem!
Hope you’re doing fine. I wanted to thank you for the course (I have completed it). It’s perfect for beginners who don’t know where to start. I found it very useful for me personally. And I’m very motivated and excited to start working in the field.

I just finished Yacht Charter 101, and WOW I loved every bit of it! Jochem makes learning about yacht charters fun, clear, and exciting. Each lesson felt super practical, full of tips I could use right away. The best part is that he keeps the videos short and packed with information, perfect for someone like me who tends to lose attention during 1–2 hour videos haha. I genuinely feel ready and confident to dive into yacht brokerage now. If you're thinking about joining, DO IT! You won't regret it!
