Some of the deliveries we have completed
(TSD: twin screw diesel SSD: single screw diesel, otherwise sail)
BOAT FROM TO MILES
What our clients say:
“...and unreservedly recommend David as delivery skipper”
"David, thank you so much for delivering '.A.......' safely from the Canaries to Dublin. Really appreciated your very comprehensive report on the boat. Thanks also for the photos and log book of the delivery - they were great! "
Much thanks to David Jerrard for his sensible and knowledgeable advice, healthy scepticism of excessive reliance on electronic systems, and for his good company during a great delivery trip".
"...wish to express our sincere thanks to you and your crew for the safe delivery of 'T...H..'.We were delighted with the efficient way you handled the whole exercise and would have no hesitation in requesting your services in the future."
"...David, you were nothing short of magic on the trip and have earned your rightful admiration and respect from us all for your professionalism, your skills and your humour..."
"...Having decided to do the top 3 offshore races in Europe as well as a number of regattas we were delighted when you were able to assist us with the key deliveries from Fuengirola to Dun Laoghaire, Kilmore Quay to the Hamble and Vilamoura to Dun Laoghaire, amongst others.
We were able to do 3 Middle Sea races and 2 Fastnets.…… These endeavours would not have been possible without you completing the deliveries on time".
"...as well as delivering the boat in perfect condition, you gave us a meticulously completed log book, a to-the-penny breakdown of every cost and expense and a video of parts of the delivery voyage...!"
“..to thank you for the great instruction…on the delivery last week. I learned a great deal and my confidence has been boosted as well as a result of your efforts.
Unfortunately my language has gone to hell from hanging out with you…”
“....It is a great comfort to have someone who is reliable and temperature proof !”
“Thank you David,
More than fair. It was surely a memorable voyage.
….. you should have rammed them as they had no right to go across our bows….
I think you took the best action although the marina fees would have been less if the ship was a meter shorter (after a ramming!)
Met vriendelijke groet”
“Ah that’s great…..
The speed of your journey is surprising”
“Thanks to both of you for an excellent job done.
Great service.
“...What a great gift you have. Getting us to our destination safe and sound is one thing, but in a really personable and enjoyable trip makes it all the more worthwhile…..”
