Timid USCG Master Available for Deliveries

Ok now that I have your attention. To clarify, I have been called many things—- but never timid!!

I am a 100 Ton USCG Master, Sailing Endorsement and ASA Instructor. Safety of crew and vessel are always the #1 priority. On a delivery, I treat your boat better than I treat my own. As Master, I have delivered boats from Boston to the Virgin Islands and Tampa to Gibraltar, as well as many, many ports in between. Vessels range from a PSC Flicka to a 50’ Cat.

As of now I have availability until Nov-15 and after 2-Jan.

Owners are always welcome to crew their deliveries. I am in the process of migrating from an inReach to a Go device. So, during the delivery you will have access to text via an Iridium Go. We can also get on-demand weather updates via the Go device.

Please contact me through my profile, a link to my website appears there also. You can also check my website and some of my posts to understand a little more about me.

Re: Timid USCG Master Available for Deliveries

Bill,

You're hilarious.

(Of course, I wondered if the "timid" was some sort of weird auto-correct.)

Hope you have a busy winter - full of deliveries.

Fair winds,
LittleWing

Hi there, I just have to ask because things always change, are you available after thanksgiving for a trip from Deale, MD to Florida? Not sure how long it would take but I'd like to be home before Christmas =)

I am just finishing a delivery. While committed until Thanksgiving I will have some internet and then off to the BVI for delivery and owner training.

Would mid-December work? Feel free to contact me through my website. A link is in my profile. That emailed is monitored while I am away.
