Diane Fraser
Charter Broker

Diane's family ties to the yachting world began as a teenager in Newport Beach, where her first job was cleaning her father David Fraser’s, the founder of Fraser, office after school. Upon graduation from San Diego State University, she pursued a career in graphic design.
Taking leave from advertising to travel in Europe, she joined the 158' motor yacht KATALINA to assist in its Atlantic crossing. From that moment Diane changed career paths, and the rest is Fraser yachting history. Six years later, with two culinary degrees from London's Le Cordon Bleu and LaVarenne in Paris, Diane logged many sea miles and unforgettable experiences in the Mediterranean, Caribbean and the Far East. Eventually, she served as a chef aboard the 93' Burger INVADER in Southern California and married the Captain!
Today Diane is a preeminent international charter broker based in Seattle and part of Fraser’s San Diego office. Her vast knowledge of the well-known to the lesser-known charter locations and her extensive understanding of the charter business is revered. Well respected by her peers, she was awarded the 2020 International Yacht Broker Association’s (IYBA) Charter Professional of the Year.
Any time away from work might find Diane aboard her Downeast Maine Lobster boat in the San Juan Islands.
