Trevor Berrie

Yacht Broker

Trevor joins Vancouver Yacht Group as a Yacht Broker, bringing over a decade of customer-centric outside sales experience and a strong passion for the boating lifestyle. With a proven background in solution-based selling, he has consistently exceeded client expectations while building lasting relationships in highly competitive markets. His ability to understand customer needs and deliver tailored recommendations makes him a natural fit for yacht brokerage—where the right boat is as much about lifestyle and confidence as it is about specs.

 

Beyond sales, Trevor brings a uniquely diverse professional foundation. His years as an English teacher taught him how to interpret and communicate complex information with clarity—an invaluable skill when guiding clients through the technical details of yacht design, onboard systems, performance, and ownership. Trevor’s ability to build trust and rapport with families and individuals alike ensures clients feel supported, informed, and well-prepared throughout the entire buying or selling process.

Trevor also draws from his experience as a golf instructor, where patience, attentive coaching, and celebrating client progress were central to his approach. This background has shaped his consultative, low-pressure style—focused on helping clients feel confident and excited while navigating everything from first-time boat ownership to stepping up into their next vessel.

His blend of communication skills, relationship-building experience, and client-first mindset makes him a valuable addition to the Vancouver Yacht Group team.

Jonathan Macadam

Yacht Consultant

Vancouver Yacht Group is pleased to welcome Jonathan Macadam as a Yacht Consultant based in Vancouver.

Jonathan brings a strong background in sales, financial advisory, client communication, market analysis, and technical problem-solving. Prior to joining Vancouver Yacht Group, he worked in financial services as a Loan Advisor, where he guided clients through the lending process, qualified applicants, presented financial products, and helped customers make informed decisions. His ability to build trust quickly, handle objections professionally, and move clients through a structured process gives him a strong foundation for yacht brokerage.

Jonathan also brings an entrepreneurial and analytical background. As the owner of a self-directed market analysis business, he developed projection models, managed partner relationships, tracked performance data, and applied disciplined risk management across multiple accounts. This experience strengthened his ability to evaluate value, interpret market conditions, and make decisions based on research rather than emotion. In yacht sales, that same mindset is valuable when helping buyers understand opportunity, helping sellers position their vessel properly, and guiding clients through a major transaction.

His technical education and hands-on experience further add to his skill set. Jonathan completed engineering coursework in areas such as electrical systems, programming, circuits, probability, and statistics, and also gained practical experience assembling printed circuit boards and electronic components. This gives him a useful technical perspective when learning vessel systems, reviewing specifications, and communicating with clients who appreciate detail and accuracy.

Jonathan’s background as a coach also reflects the client-first approach that Vancouver Yacht Group values. Through years of coaching volleyball and working with people of different ages and skill levels, he developed patience, clear communication, leadership, and the ability to adapt his approach to each individual. Those qualities transfer directly into yacht brokerage, where every client has different goals, experience levels, and expectations.

At Vancouver Yacht Group, Jonathan is focused on helping clients buy and sell quality boats and yachts throughout British Columbia and the Pacific Northwest. His combination of sales experience, analytical thinking, technical curiosity, and calm communication style makes him a strong fit for clients looking for a professional and consultative approach to the boating lifestyle.

Jonathan looks forward to building lasting relationships in the West Coast boating community and helping clients move through the buying and selling process with confidence.
