I provide reliable professional boat delivery service in the shortest possible time. You can be 100% confident that your boat is in safe hands. Safety is always priority one. I provide my own GPS, handheld VHF radio, and all required charts. Your boat will be kept clean and well maintained.
For a more efficient boat delivery I suggest that you have the engines serviced before the boat captain arrives at the boat. All filters should be changed, belts should be checked for excessive wear and replaced if necessary. Spare filters should be placed aboard. If impellers are more than a year old, they should be replaced. The bottom of the boat should be cleaned and the fuel tanks topped off. I suggest that with today’s fuel prices, it will be more economical to have the tanks topped off with delivered fuel since it is usually less expensive than purchasing it at a marina.
Fees are straight forward. The Captains fee is $350. per day, plus food and travel to and from the boat for two people and all boat delivery expenses such as fuel and dockage. When the owner comes along as crew, there is a $50. daily discount. Owners are expected to supply all CG required safety equipment and to carry insurance on their vessels. Existing insurance usually covers a licensed boat delivery captain but be sure to check with your agent. I hold USCG license serial number 1143886. Documentation and/or state registration should be aboard with a letter appointing The Captain as the owner's agent. Just E-Mail or call me at 609-504-6362 and I'll be happy to answer all your questions.
Many times, the boat delivery is also a shakedown cruise, therefore during the voyage, I will provide you with updates as necessary and a post boat delivery report from notes made while underway. This report will be very helpful since it points out areas that need your attention.
