Services
One trade, and the work that grew around it.
Moving boats is the business. Everything else on this page exists because the people who hire us for a delivery usually need something else too — to learn the boat, to satisfy an underwriter, or to have a professional aboard for a passage they would rather not run alone.
Also available
The rest of the work.
On your own boat
Hands-on training
Boat handling, navigation, anchoring and systems — taught aboard your own vessel, in your own water, by the captain and a deckhand.

Owner-assisted passages
Relief captain
A professional aboard for your own passage — so you keep the helm and the trip, and someone experienced has the watch when it matters.

By the day
Captain for hire
A licensed master for the day — deliveries, sea trials, new-owner orientation, or an extra pair of experienced hands when you need them.

Dealers and buyers
Sea trials
A professional captain aboard for a prospective buyer’s sea trial — an independent read on how the boat actually runs.

Sail specifics
Sailboat delivery
Sailing yachts move differently, take longer and expose the crew — which changes the crew, the schedule and the estimate.

Not sure which one you need?
Describe the boat and what you are trying to accomplish. If it is a job for a licensed captain, I will tell you which service it falls under — and if it is not, I will tell you that too.
We do not share, rent or sell your information. Data is collected only to produce the estimate you asked for.
