Client Feedback
I recently bought a boat and used a broker for the first time. My experience with this broker has been nothing short of extraordinary and I felt compelled to reach out to your organization in attempt to recognize his great work. His name is Pat Sturgeon in Ontario. The boat that I purchased was not his listing (thus splitting the commission) and was not an expensive boat (1981 Bristol 35.5). Despite all of this, Pat has provided a phenomenal level of service and arranged things that I never expected. Perhaps this is common with your certified brokers, but I highly doubt it. Throughout the buying process he has anticipated my needs, alerted to me things I didn't know, and then handled all of them. His service and support has even continued after the purchased was completed!
Please let me know if there is any sort of recognition you provide within your organization. Pat Sturgeon is a true star.
Regards,
Brian Hill

After graduating from an extensive two year Yacht Studies program at Humber College, Pat took a full time position with Hughes Columbia until 1980, then with CS Yachts, running the rigging department in the winter months and heading up the service and commissioning during the sailing season.
In 1984 Pat started with John Burn Yachts in Bronte as a commissioned salesman selling brokerage. In 1985 Pat, with a partner, bought out John Burn Yachts and continued to sell brokerage, forming Pat Sturgeon Yachts on his own in April, 1986.
In 1994 Pat partnered with two time Olympian Hans Fogh to sell new JBoats and Schock sailboats. In 2005, Hanse Yachts Germany, aware of Pat's reputation in the boat business, approached them about representing their product line.
Today, Pat Sturgeon Yachts is one of the biggest boat brokerages in eastern and central Canada for Hanse Group, including Hanse, Moody, Dehler, as well having maintained their solid relationship as dealers for JBoats.
