If you are dealing with a good broker, they will help in the selection.

Lars,

It would be a new design, and from what I understand a yacht takes around 3 years to build. I have been avoiding dealing with a broker, from what I have been told about certain brokers I am turned off from even dealing with them.

Would it be advisable to hire a Captain now 3 years out, or just wait?
