About Devan Snyder

My transition from a licensed USCG 100T Captain to a Yacht Charter Broker has been shaped by diverse experiences navigating sailing yachts in renowned locations such as the Caribbean, Greece, Southeast Asia, New England, the Bahamas, and Hawaii. These experiences have given me a nuanced understanding of yacht chartering and a keen appreciation for the finer details that make a voyage truly exceptional. Transitioning to the brokerage side of the industry has allowed me to combine my passion for yachting with a commitment to helping clients fulfill their charter dreams. At CKIM Group, I draw on my background to craft personalized and memorable maritime experiences, ensuring that each journey is tailored to surpass expectations. My goal is to provide exceptional service and create unforgettable adventures for those who share a love for the nautical lifestyle.
