Question for licensed captains?

[RM]

Was hoping anyone that is a licensed captain that does boat deliveies could provide some guidance on a couple questions. Can recommend a carrier and tell me what type of insurance you carry that would cover deliveries, etc? Also can give me a range on fees?

Thanks

RM,

You may want to give a bit more information regarding boat size etc. and approximate distance.

First you should contact YOUR insurance company & see what they require for someone to deliver your boat. Armed with that info then I would seek a qualified captain.

I think he's look to do deliveries, not have a boat delivered.

The boat policy covers the delivery captain and crew in every cases I've been involved with. Fees range from $175 - $350 per day for a captain. And $100 - $250 a day for a mate. Depends on the length of the trip and how big the boat is in many cases. Plus food and expenses.

I charge for any travel days to and from the delivery and any weather/break down days as well.

Capt Bill, yep that is correct. Thanks for the info, was thinking about an umbrella policy too.
