My Present With more than 30 years of professional experience in the yachting industry and over 40 years on the water, Brian Fisher brings a depth of practical and technical knowledge to yacht brokerage. His background spans professional yacht racing, offshore cruising and deliveries, yacht rigging and technical sales, and new yacht and brokerage sales.
Based between Newport and South Florida, Brian works with buyers and sellers of both sailing and motor yachts. His approach is straightforward and highly personal: understand how a client intends to use a yacht, know the boat and the market in detail, and provide candid advice throughout the process. As a broker with Northrop & Johnson, Brian combines his own experience and longstanding relationships within the yachting community with the global reach, marketing capabilities and expertise of one of the world's leading yacht brokerage firms.
My Past Brian's yachting career began on the water. He spent more than a decade racing professionally and competitively, competing in world championships and major international regattas aboard offshore one-designs, maxi-yachts, and other grand-prix racing yachts.
His experience extends well beyond racing. Brian has cruised and delivered yachts throughout New England and the Caribbean and completed offshore passages in both the Atlantic and Pacific. He previously held a U.S. Coast Guard 100 Ton Master license. Brian later spent more than two decades in the yacht rigging and spar industry, including project management and technical sales with Southern Spars. Working closely with yacht owners, captains, designers, builders and professional sailing teams gave him a strong technical understanding of yacht construction, performance and systems before he transitioned into yacht sales.
My Approach Brian has built his career and reputation around long-term relationships, honesty and straightforward advice. He believes a broker's role is not simply to sell a yacht, but to help clients make well-informed decisions.
After more than three decades in the industry, Brian values the trust he has earned within the yachting community and brings that same commitment to every client and transaction.
