Fantastic Cat Charters Worldwide Yacht Delivery
 
Do you need your yacht delivered somewhere?
 
We can deliver your yacht virtually anywhere in the world. 
 
All our skippers are commercially endorsed Royal Yachting Association Yachtmasters, Ocean Yachtmasters and Yachtmaster Instructors. Our Skippers are experienced commercial skippers whose predominant form of income is through working as a Yacht Skipper.
 
 
Why Yacht Delivery?

Maybe you have sold your yacht, have had to cut a holiday short or simply want your boat somewhere different for your next use. Perhaps you don't feel confident with long offshore passages?
 
Whatever the reason, we can help you get your boat there. We provide full project management should the boat require equipment upgrades, maintenance work and so on. Our Yacht Delivery service is fully comprehensive to ensure that your boat gets there safely and soundly.
  
Where do your yacht deliveries operate from?

We deliver yachts anywhere in the world, but find that most of our work centres around the Atlantic, Caribbean and European waters. We have a core of skippers based in the UK and in the Caribbean.
 
What about contract yacht deliveries?

If you are a yacht manufacturer, agent or broker, we can provide an agreed 'terms of service' in that you can regularly and quickly call off our yacht delivery services. Will provide a bespoke contract arrangement to meet your needs. 
 
What type of yacht deliveries do you do?

We can deliver virtually any type of yacht up to 80ft in length or 200 GRT. Whether you want a catamaran, monuhull, trimaran or powerboat delivered, we have skippers with the expetise and experience to deliver your yacht safely.
 
What about crew?

Your yachts Skipper will always be either Yachtmaster Offshore Commercial (with at least 5 years commercial experience), 1st Mate will be at least Coastal Skipper (with previous delivery experience). Typically, we sail with 3 or 4 crew depending on the length / nature of the delivery. Flights and food should be provided for all crew.
 
How do I find out how the yacht delivery is progressing?

 
First of all, we'll demonstrate our passage plan to confirm that you are happy with it. We'll typically take the most prudent route, allowing for the type of vessel that we are delivering. We'll identify ports of call along the route and provide details of mooring costs.
 
When we take the boat we'll do detailed checks as to her condition. We'll also check out the boat detailing any breakages, repairs and so on that have been undertaken or need to be undertaken.
 
We'll update you as often as you can either by email or phone. If your boat is equipped with SatComms then we are able to give you a daily notification of progress.
 
 
How do I arrange my Yacht Delivery?

It's simple. Contact us or call us, let us know what you want to do and we'll take it from there!
 
 
Is there anywhere you don't deliver yachts?

We avoid areas of notable risk. This would include for example areas where piracy exists, where civil unrest exists or where navigation is dangerous. We'll advise you when you get in touch.
 
We will also conduct thorough searches of any boat that we deliver for illegal products. If an illegal product of any description is found on the boat then we will not deliver the boat and you will remain liable for the full delivery cost.
 
We will also examine the boat for seaworthiness. Should we conclude that the boat is not sea worthy, then similarly, we will not deliver the boat. In entering into a contract with us, you would thus warrant that the boat is seaworthy.
 
I am interested in becoming a yacht delivery crew.
We are always interested in hearing from potential crew and yacht skippers.
