    Oh.. when I said they were leaving I meant home to the UK.. leaving me to clear up the crap.
    I charge by mileage, if it was a day rate that would be another matter..

    Hi Em,
    My Greece delivery did not happen. The boat was a shambles, tools strewn around the galley floor and worktop with bits of ply cutoffs, gear and boxes piled shoulder high in the saloon with just the walkway kinda clear, the headsail crumpled in the forecabin space floor getting kicked and trampled as the owner stomped back and forth installing a new battery for the bow thruster. The aft cabin had loose gear all around except on the bed.. it was a mess despite him telling me she was ready to sail. This was at 8pm Wens night and he told me they were leaving on Friday morning.
    Now the owners kicking up because I deducted the travel costs to the boat from the deposit when I refunded it. He's lucky I did not deduct my return costs and bill for time wasted.. especially as I had knocked back a transat from Martinique to Gib because of the date conflict, it had to be in the Med by April.
    Still.. I guess that's life in this game.
    Good luck with finding a boat kiddo..

    My boat was tied up to a buoy but the manager at Dream Yacht Charter in Anse Marcel go out and bring it into the small marina there because he was worried about it in the big winds that were coming through. It was not until I read your message here that I panicked about it being gone and I called Dream Yacht on St Martin to find out what was going on. They tried to call me about moving my boat but just like this very moment I’m presently off Dominica doing a Dream Yacht delivery from Saint Thomas to Martinique. In other words I’m never really around and very hard to get ahold of. I’m Sooooo sorry that the boat was not in the place I had told you. Wow, what would have happened if you would have had some problem. But Sebastian the manager of DYC would have directed you to me boat for sure as you can see he is a really thoughtful and nice guy. So today as I crossed from Guadeloupe to Dominica it was less them pleasant in the pass we 30kts SE mostly on my forward port quarter.

    Hey Em.. glad you had a good time and the Mal de Mer did not strike..
    As a matter of curiosity what was the boat and how big, Cat or Mono.???
    Which islands did you visit..
    I was looking at flights to Martinique last month when working out a quote and Air France from Paris looked pretty reasonable, mind, that was before Ukraine kicked off.
    As to the delivery, arrive Cartagena Wens 16th but looking at the long term forecast for Fri, Sat n Sunday it looks pretty crap for going East with head winds and sea's.. hope systems move through faster than forecast.
    Once again, glad you've a grin on your face..
    Hugz back atchya..
