Hayden Cochran

Yacht Broker

Hayden Cochran has been an enthusiastic sailor since 1981. He raced dinghies and then crewed for ten years aboard a J-35, competing in buoy and distance races on Long Island Sound. Hayden and his wife, Radeen, have been continuous Island Packet Yacht owners since 1991. They sailed an IP27 for ten years on the Chesapeake Bay and then bought an IP35 in 2001. They have sailed "Island Spirit" from New England to Florida 10 times, to Maine for four summers, cruised 10 winters in the Bahamas, and have made five passages from Florida through the Caribbean to Grenada and back. Hayden has also crewed on IP's sailing to Bermuda on numerous races, deliveries, and ASA instructional courses.


Together Hayden and Radeen created the IPYOA, Island Packet Yacht Owners' Association to encourage camaraderie among thousands of IP owners. As a broker, Hayden specializes in helping buyers select and purchase the best boat to meet their cruising goals. Hayden's expertise extends beyond Island Packets. He is knowledgeable about many other boats, both power and sail.


Hayden is a mobile yacht broker who has supported listings and sales in The Netherlands, Rhode Island, New York, Michigan, Chesapeake, Carolinas, Florida and Grenada. He shares the joy of boat ownership at every opportunity and assists customers in pursuing their yachting dreams. As a proud member of the Whiteaker Yacht Sales team since 2013, Hayden looks forward to continuing Ed and Debbie's tradition of kind and ethical customer service at CJ Yacht Sales.
