DO YOU NEED A VESSEL MOVED?

 

Maybe you need to have your boat moved to a new port in another state or just another Marina. Do you want some additional training or possibly just a refresher before setting sail. If so, please contact me about these and other services we can provide. 

​

We have a partnership with several USCG 200-ton Captains, with crew, and can provide a quick quote based on your particular needs.
