I do believe it's time for another adventure..
These words have guided Brent Hermann throughout his life, fueling his passion for exploration, hard work, and a deep love for adventure. Raised in a small Indiana town, Brent was instilled with a strong Midwestern work ethic, much of which he credits to his father—a chiropractor who served their small-town community for over 50 years.
Growing up on the water, Brent’s career naturally evolved to reflect his love for both the outdoors and adventure. His interests in hunting, fishing, and flying all stem from his early years. Earning his pilot's license in 1999 remains one of his proud achievements. Over the years, Brent has built three planes of his own, further embracing the freedom and perspective that aviation provides. “Flying gives you a different perspective—and a greater appreciation for life,” he says.
As a top-performing catamaran broker, Brent has built a remarkable career with a reputation for excellence. He has sold over $300 million in new Lagoons alone, earning recognition as one of the most successful brokers worldwide. For Brent, the true goal of a great broker is connecting buyers and sellers, ensuring both parties achieve their objectives while embarking on new adventures. With decades of experience and a deep understanding of the yacht industry, Brent offers unparalleled expertise and commitment to helping clients find their perfect vessel.
Brent splits his time between two major boating hubs: Fort Lauderdale, FL, and Annapolis, MD—giving him a unique, year-round presence in the heart of the U.S. yachting world. This bi-coastal lifestyle keeps him closely connected to clients, inventory, and the pulse of the market.
If you're ready to take the next step in your boating journey, Brent Hermann brings the experience, insight, and integrity to help you navigate it with confidence. You’ve got nothing to lose—and a world to explore.
Hello Brent,
My wife and I have been browsing and anticipating buying a 40-45’ Catamaran for the last few years. When we were ready, we did not have a clear idea of how it will happen and how difficult it can be. I think we were lucky to find the right broker who will be aggressive enough to find us the right boat for the right price. Additionally, a broker who can help us decide what is best for us.
Brent Hermann was such a broker, and we are very thankful to have found him. He is very experienced with a strong network and connection with other brokers. He knows his stuff.
While working with Brent, he helped us discover what our budget really should be…as well as the condition, year, and style of our boat. All of which we thought we knew already, but only to discover we did not. Brent went out of his way to spend a whole day with us searching for the right boat and somehow he found the perfect boat for us. He knew we needed a boat that was truly turn-key. We are now living aboard our beautiful sailing cat and enjoying it, not fixing it up to be what we need it to be.
We are truly thankful to have Brent on our side.
Yours sincerely,
Brian Wicklund
Living in Quebec, Canada, the task of finding the right boat to sail the Caribbeans and beyond has its challenges. After one phone call with Brent to discuss my needs and budget, he was able to provide pertinent advice and quickly find the perfect catamaran for me. He also took care of everything in between; finding a captain, a slip, setting up the survey and haul-out, as well as recommending knowledgeable service providers outside the catamaran company.
If you need somebody to trust as your eyes and ears to find your perfect boat and help you throughout the purchase process… I definitely recommend Brent and his team.

Two years have passed since we purchased our sailing catamaran. 10,000 nautical miles later, we still pinch ourselves now and then just to remember we are indeed living our dream. The process of buying a boat can be a challenge, especially if you want to find a vessel that truly fits your experience level, budget and is well equipped for your sailing plans. We would have definitely bought a boat that was too big, costly and ill equipped if we did not enlist the professional assistance of a boat broker. It really does seem like something you could handle on your own, but you soon realize you are in over your head. We had spoken to many brokers prior to this point and we had the “expected experience”. All brokers are not created equal.
