Appointing a Yacht Delivery Company

Employing someone to deliver your yacht has hidden advantages for new boat owners who join the delivery for all or part of the voyage. Most notably is the chance to learn on a one to one basis from experienced, qualified captains and crew. A captain who has specific experience of Biscay for example can provide an element of safety and reassurance. It also provides the ideal opportunity to learn about and operate the yacht’s complex systems. (more…)

Sunreef 74 Hull #01

Reliance to deliver the first SR74

Sunreef Yachts have confirmed the launch of three Sunreef 74s for the start of next year. Reliance Yacht Management has collected hull no. 1 from the yard for delivery to a private Owner in US. We sent our leading catamaran crews to Poland in January 2015 for a period of orientation, sea trials, preparation and handover. The first hull named Wildberry is described by Sunreef as “a private yacht adapted for on board living and consists of many comfortable areas and numerous storage spaces as the owners are planning long cruises. The yacht will comfortably accommodate 6 guests and 2-3 crew members.”

Nauticat 42

A big thanks to Captain Mike Stewart and his crew for the safe delivery of a Nauticat 42 from Chichester to Scotland.

It was a tough trip up the Irish Sea with steady F6 and heavy stern seas pushing them to 13 knots at times. The proud new owner was on the dock to catch the lines as they arrived.

In Praise of our Clients

In praise of our client; “we couldn’t do it without them.”

We are accredited ISO9001 for our business standards including customer service and safety procedure – and we are very chuffed about it. We have also worked with our wonderful clients to help us become even better. Over the next few weeks we will be highlighting a few of our valued corporate clients that we have assisted and say a big thank you for their continued support.

Horizon Yacht Charters was established in the British Virgin Islands in 1998 and since then has been offering world class sailing at our bases in the Caribbean and USA. From those early days Reliance yacht management was the preferred delivery company and we continue to work closely with them to this day. Our range of services provided have grown beyond just yacht delivery. We now supply equipment to help them comply with charter regulations as well as provide orientation and assisted passages for new Owners.
