Senior Staff:

Janet Bloomfield, President and Head of Sales

Janet co-founded our company under the auspices of personal attention and exceptional service, which she had practiced in professional marketing roles for many national and international business organizations. She had worked on marketing leadership and electronic commerce initiatives since the internet's inception.

Janet first entered the marine industry as a Vice President tasked with managing online marketing strategies and growing partnerships in the crewed yacht charter industry. Since then Janet has gained over 20 years experience helping her clients plan fully crewed luxury charters around the world. With an exceptionally large set of repeat clients she certainly has earned the description of "a proven charter broker".

Janet has personally visited charter destinations worldwide from Alaska to The Great Barrier Reef. Annually attending trade only shows to see new yachts to charter, she was one of the first USA based yacht charter brokers accepted for membership in MYBA, the premier association for the industry where membership has to be earned; she is also a member of AYCA, CYBA, and IYBA.
