Our Commitments

Professional Standards. Your Safety is Our Priority.

• Certified Crew: Every transfer is carried out by a trained, experienced and fully reliable team, capable of handling all navigation conditions.

• Vessel Integrity: We operate with strict respect for the vessel and its capabilities, performing detailed inspections before, during and after each passage.

• Complete Transparency: Upon delivery, you receive a full technical report summarising the route, weather conditions and any maintenance actions carried out on board.

Pricing

Every mission is unique. That’s why we work exclusively on the basis of a personalised quote, reflecting the level of safety and reliability required for your vessel’s transfer.

The final cost depends primarily on

• The type and size of the vessel (sailboat or catamaran)

• The transfer distance and any time or seasonal constraints

• Crew-related costs (travel, meals, and return transport)
