Jason Decker

Captain Jason Decker has spent much of his life on or under the water. A lifelong sailor, licensed captain, and scuba instructor, he brings decades of hands-on experience to every interaction—whether he’s guiding guests on cruising charters, helping future cruisers learn the ropes, or offering honest, practical advice as a yacht broker. 

His first sailboat was a Hobie 16, and that kicked off a passion for sailing that hasn’t let up since. Over the next 20+ years, Jason spent as much time as possible racing a variety of PHRF and one-design sailboats. He became deeply involved in the J/24 class, qualifying for and competing in two J/24 World Championships. He’s also raced on high-performance yachts like the 1D 35, Farr 50, and TP52, as well as racer-cruisers such as the Cape Fear 38 and a range of J-Boats—even the occasional cruising yacht. When it comes to understanding how boats perform—and how they’re built to handle real-world conditions—Jason has spent years right in the thick of it. 

But racing was just one chapter. Jason is also a 200-ton commercially licensed captain and seasoned offshore multihull cruiser, with over 40,000 bluewater catamaran cruising miles under his belt. For nearly two decades, he chartered cruising catamarans throughout the Caribbean, Europe, and Thailand, sharing his love of sailing and the cruising lifestyle with friends and guests. In 2010, he sailed more than 12,000 nautical miles from the Caribbean to New Zealand, island-hopping across the South Pacific. That adventure sparked a new phase of his life—one that blends travel, seamanship, and a deep commitment to life at sea. 

Today, Jason runs charters aboard his St. Francis 50 catamaran Tahina, offering immersive, week-long liveaboard experiences in the Exuma Islands of the Bahamas. These aren’t typical vacations—they’re hands-on introductions to the cruising lifestyle, designed for aspiring cruisers who want a true sense of what it’s like to live aboard a fully outfitted bluewater catamaran. With Jason as your guide, you’ll gain firsthand insight into everything from onboard systems and route planning to anchoring strategy and daily life off the grid. 

Jason brings this depth of real-world experience to his work as a yacht broker with The Multihull Company. His practical knowledge of cruising catamarans, their systems, and the lifestyle they support makes him a trusted resource for anyone looking to buy or sell a multihull. Whether you’re just starting out or already well underway, Jason’s goal is simple: to help you make informed, confident decisions that align with your goals on the water.
