Deliveries

          Coffs to Sydney December 2022... Again with work constraints, James was unable to complete the final leg of the return voyage of Astros back to Sydney and again I was fortunate that Phil was available and keen to join me for the trip. A quick 36 hours with favourable...

         Hammo to Sydney October 2022... Probably the best prepared yacht I've had the pleasure to deliver. David and I met up at Hammo when I arrived to pick up Rumba a couple of months ago and showed me over the boat and I was immediately so impressed with the display of...

  Hobart to Sydney October 2022...                 Don purchased this very fast Elan S4 and asked me to assist him and one of his crewmates Tom to sail her back to MHYC in Sydney. I had just finished the previous job so booked to get to Hobart a...

Rumba Deliveries... Coffs to Sydney August 2013... Unfortunately the Sydney to Southport race this year suffered very light conditions.

John and I enjoyed the varied conditions which ranged...

          Owner Steve asked us to pick up his new yacht from Paradise beach at Pittwater. On hearing this, I was delighted at the prospect of a trip down memory lane. Way back in my memory I called that location as my parents often rented a holiday cottage at that beach and...

Ross emailed me too ask if I was interested to pick up his new purchase, I immediately answered that I would be delighted as On The Prowl struck me as being a really great design and well powered. I had previously delivered a Schionning sailing cat to Auckland and liked the design. I was...

Coffs Harbour to Tweed July 2021... Brad called in a bit of a panic. Having sailed his boat up from Hobart with the intention of having a family holiday at the Whitsundays, when the Qld border closure became imminent, he grabbed the family, hired a car and got north of the border. He then...

Coffs Harbour to Airlie July 2021 Greg bought Midnight Blue new in Melbourne about 2 years ago. Since then, as a novice sailor Greg's learning curve has been steep to say the least. He had the assistance of an experienced blue water sailor getting the boat to Pittwater but needed help from Coffs getting...
