Reliable and dependable personal service, specializing in
yacht delivery to and from the Rio Dulce. Have your sailboat
thoroughly checked for seaworthiness, then prepared for the passage
across the Gulf of Mexico and down the Yucatan Channel, past the coral
Cays of Belize and on to Guatemala. We handle all the paperwork
regarding customs and immigration inspections. Expect realistic
competitive delivery prices to include required upgrades and normal
expenses for the distance traveled: less than 1000 miles from most
points in the Gulf of Mexico and South Florida. The Rio Dulce is
340 miles south of Cancun/Cozumel and 650 miles from Key West.
U.S. Coast Guard certified Captain available if required.
Fly only two and a half hours from Houston or Ft. Lauderdale
to Guatemala to join your newly re-fit yacht in the peaceful wooded
environs of Cayo Quemado Bay, about 8 miles up-river from the NW
Caribbean in clean, clear fresh water. Enjoy fabulous year-round
tropical cruising on Lake Izabal, the bustling “yachtie central” global
community in Rio Dulce/ Fronteras, or the breath-taking “Gorge” toward
Livingston and the sea.
We have NO hurricanes, NO marine
patrol and NO price-gouging marinas.
A marine survey is usually commissioned by a serious buyer to
be sure that the boat under consideration is thoroughly evaluated by a
professional, and he
can therefore feel more confidant in sales negotiations.
 A top-notch surveyor, like Casey, can spend up to two full
days surveying the boat, and then compile the results from
hundreds of inspections to include in his final report. Unlike a
simpler “checklist” style survey, Casey inspects the boat through the
eyes of a boat builder and cruising sailor with many years of experience. His
survey is a lengthy written report full of opinions, observations and
recommendations. He is also able to offer suggestions as to the
boat’s suitability to your personal plans and lifestyle.
A marine survey is a highly technical unbiased evaluation to
determine fair market value, insurability and the level of future
satisfaction with your own cruising experiences. Insurance surveys
are $600.00. Pre-purchase surveys
are $700.00. Damage surveys are by quotation.
 Casey’s passion is building
wooden boats by traditional
methods, from kayaks and dinghies to classic racing yachts. At
his dock in Cayo Quemado on the Rio Dulce, he is able to offer the
finest quality craftsmanship, with the highest quality tools, at a
fraction of the cost of an ordinary boatyard in America.
A re-fit of your boat can include hull and deck repair, custom
interior joinery, rigging work, repair and installation of
marine-quality systems, bright work & painting, and many other
improvements to optimize your efficiency and comfort.
