Question Delivery from Puerto Rico to New England

Hello,

My wife and I are planning for a sabbatical, hopefully starting July 2022. We are looking at 50' monohull in Peurto Rico and considering an offer. We would like to understand the approximate cost for a delivery captain/crew to take the boat from Peurto Rico to New England sometime between April to June 2022.

Would anyone have a rough idea on the cost? This would allow us to begin our sabbatical on the US east coast and slowly make our way south, while obviously getting the boat out of the hurricane zone where we can't realistically use it at the start of our trip in July.

Many thanks,

Nate

Re: Delivery from Puerto Rico to New England

When I was looking to by a boat.
I just requested a couple of quotes from a delivery company. I got a quote within a day.
The company I got a the first quote from was the only one I’d heard off and not particularly reputable, but it gave me an idea of cost.
I did the trip myself, which was fun, and one of my most memorable. It was a little bit of a challenge to organize. Being far from home.
There are several posters on this site who regularly do deliveries.

Ex delivery skipper here, though mostly west coast. $500/day for roughly 20-25 days. Plus expenses which typically run about equal to the captain/crew fees. Call it $20k-ish for a professional captain and crew.

Good luck.

Peter

Thanks mvweebles for giving me a ballpark number. Uricanejack, you are right on that approach as well, I reached out to some places and seems like I'll get a quote back fairly quickly & easily.
