FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Where do you deliver?
Pretty much anywhere. Let’s talk. We’re always up for an adventure!
How much does it cost?
There are several factors to consider such as the route to be covered and crew requirements of the vessel. For extended trips, it may be in the best interest of PacificCaptains and the yacht owner to agree on a rate based on mileage. Other expenses typically include our flights and necessary vessel expenses such as fuel, marinas, and transit fees when required.
What type of safety gear is required to be on my boat?
While the U.S. Coast Guard mandates specific safety equipment based on boat size, exceeding those requirements is highly recommended. We typically bring our own equipment beyond the required minimums.
What do I need to get my boat ready?
Look over this basic checklist to see what you may have missed. There is also a very detailed checklist for cruising.
What about insurance?
It is easy to add us to your yacht insurance policy. We have been approved as named insured through insurers such as London International Marine, Geico Marine, Capurro, and Pantaenius.
What about bad weather or mechanical failures?
Any delays encountered due to mechanical breakdowns and/or weather considerations are out of our control. Decisions on mechanical breakdowns or weather are always made prudently with the safety of the vessel and crew as the highest priority guiding such decisions.
Do you have an experienced crew?
Since we come as a team of two 100-ton masters we usually don’t need any additional crew. We have been working together for over 20 years. Please contact us and we will be happy to send you our CVs.
