Assisted Passages

Sailing and Assisted Passages

There will be times when as a yacht owner you feel out of your comfort zone with a planned passage. This maybe because

  • you do not have enough skilled crew

  • perhaps you think the passage might be beyond your skills as a sailor and navigator

  • the distance is greater than you are comfortable with

  • involves more night sailing than you are used to

This is part of being a good skipper, knowing your limitations. I can assist you with passages where you feel you might need some assistance. The beauty of having an experienced sailor onboard is two-fold. You get practical help with sailing of the vessel, navigating and standing watches for instance as well as having the opportunity to learn and improve your skills.

Depending on your time constraints, sailing the boat yourself with an experienced hand onboard is a very good alternative to having your boat delivered from A to B as well. I can also call on additional experienced, qualified crew to help with passages where you are short handed.
