Yacht Delivery
We at Gypsy Yacht Management, above all, love to sail. Unfortunately though, some of us don’t get to leave the office all that much. This makes our skippers the target of much silent envy on the part of us “office admirals”. Nonetheless, we do derive what pleasures we can from monitoring there progress and making sure they’re not having too much fun without us. Its our way of getting back at them you see, by constantly plaguing them with emails of weather updates for their local regions, and inundating them with piles of reading materials regarding their stop-overs en route, including best anchorages, navigational hazards, locations of boatyards, customs, boat supplies and services, places to stock up and any other contacts they may find helpful.
We deliver boats, be it monohulls, cats or trimarans to any destination in the world. We choose, out of our repertoire of captains, the sea dog that is most familiar with the passage at hand, this way we can rest assured that each delivery is handled by the most experienced and knowledgeable individual for that particular route and will be carried out as smoothly and efficiently as possible. Constant communication is maintained with our skippers throughout the journey, as they are not permitted to depart without a satellite phone that is supplied to them by us. Oh, and although we are envious of our skippers, we still care about them too, so we make sure all vessels about to embark on a voyage are rigorously inspected and meet our high safety standards.
