East Coast Boat Delivery Fees and Other Considerations

We strive to provide our clients with comprehensive boat delivery cost estimates that will be as accurate as possible.

Delivery costs include salaries of the Captain and a mate, plus expenses, usually including the Captain’s and Mate’s travel to and from the departure and destination ports, crew expenses (per diem) for meals, fuel, dockage, and any materials and/or repairs determined to be required along the way. Unless minor, no costs will be incurred for materials or repairs without prior coordination with the owner.

Training and captaining rates are on an hourly basis, with a four hour minimum. We train on your boat, at your marina, and in your local operating watesr, for the most relevant and useful training experience.

Owners are expected to supply all US Coast Guard required equipment. The captain will verify the USCG-required equipment list prior to departure.

Owners are also expected to carry adequate insurance on the vessel, including covering the captain.

Boat deliveries can include operational training enroute for the owner and/or family members or passengers, if desired.
