Ritchard Findlay left behind his suit and career as a senior executive in Toronto and traded them for board shorts and flip-flops to pursue the dream of sailing full-time. For the past five years, Ritchard and his lovely wife have sailed through nearly every island of the Caribbean islands. "Turquoise waters and blue skies beat Canadian winters anytime," says Ritchard.

As an ocean sailor and multihull enthusiast, Ritchard has spent a lifetime tinkering with boats of all kinds. Having fallen in love with the lifestyle and recognizing his passion for helping fellow cruisers, Ritchard began a new career in yacht brokerage. His approach is timely communication, exceptional knowledge based on real-world experience, and a constant focus on treating people right and caring about his work.

As a full-time cruiser for several years, Ritchard deeply and personally understands the needs of the cruising sailor. He has seen what works and doesn't and can provide thoughtful advice to clients. Those looking to begin or continue a Caribbean cruising adventure can count on Ritchard as an enthusiastic and knowledgeable ally. Those looking to sell their vessel can depend on serious, focused marketing and a proactive effort to match their boat with the right buyer.
