Technical expertise, market history, and a real presence at every stage of your transaction.
The faces who lead every negotiation at Dockmaster.
Founder
Over 30 years negotiating luxury vessels. Deep knowledge of the premium vessel market in Brazil, having worked alongside the country's largest shipyards in sales and marketing. He brought to Dockmaster a rigorous approach to the buying and selling process and an unwavering commitment to reliability in every deal.
Commercial Director
Rafael has a proven track record of completed negotiations, each conducted to deliver the best outcome for the client. He is the primary point of contact for anyone looking to buy or sell a vessel through Dockmaster — guiding the process from first contact to closing with market insight and precision.
At Dockmaster, closing the deal is the beginning of our work — not the end.
While the client is out on the water, our team manages everything that sustains that experience: documentation and surveys, support, transport and insurance, marina relations, portfolio updates, and the digital infrastructure that keeps available vessels visible.
Every function exists for an objective reason: to ensure clients always have a clear point of contact, accurate information, and a swift solution — without having to search, follow up, or improvise.
It is this structure, operating behind the scenes, that transforms a sound purchase into a lasting relationship of trust.
Dockmaster operates differently: we present your vessel directly to qualified buyers and screen only those with genuine purchase intent — people who have already gone through our qualification process or are actively searching our portfolio. Your asset is no longer just another listing. It becomes an opportunity presented to exactly the right people.
We analyse your vessel — model, year, engine hours, condition, propulsion, and maintenance history. This information, combined with current market behaviour, forms the basis of a well-grounded valuation.
We produce a complete technical profile — professional photography and a description crafted for the qualified buyer. Nothing generic: every presentation is unique and built to highlight the specific attributes of your vessel.
Your vessel is presented directly to active buyers in our portfolio — people who have already told us what they are looking for. Where there is a match, we make the introduction. No unnecessary exposure, no negotiations with buyers who are not ready to commit.
Our team supports the negotiation, handles the paperwork, and oversees the transfer. You do not need to manage the process — we do that for you.
After closing, we monitor the documentation process carried out by the appointed agent, ensuring it proceeds smoothly for all parties.
Our network is composed of real buyers — not window shoppers. This shortens the sales cycle and protects the value of your asset.
With a history of transactions in the Brazilian nautical market, we know what vessels actually sell for — not what sellers wish they were worth.
Your vessel does not appear in public searches without your consent. We control asset exposure at every stage.
Full support and oversight of all regulatory formalities involved in a vessel sale.

To be the benchmark company in the nautical sector — recognised for its ethics, sought after for the security it provides, and respected for its track record and credibility.
Vision
To be the company that a discerning buyer recommends without hesitation, knowing that the process will be conducted with superior quality and the same rigour they apply to their own investment decisions.
Our advisory is grounded in verifiable knowledge. We stand on the buyer's side and hold ourselves to exacting standards in every assessment, negotiation, and delivery.
Every vessel in our portfolio is assessed according to the client's specific requirements — documentation, history, and market-based pricing. The buyer does not need to be an expert; that is our role.
The delivery of a vessel marks the beginning of a long-term relationship — after-sales support and ongoing attention — because an asset of this magnitude demands a permanent partner, not a one-time seller.
The nautical market demands real expertise. Enthusiasm for the sea is the starting point — but it is technical competence and ethical conduct that underpin every negotiation we lead.
