Cruising Support
Not every problem requires a “hands-on” solution. Sometimes you need simple advice, sometimes you need another more experienced pair of eyeballs looking at a problem or decision. By text, phone, or video conference I can help so you can get back to enjoying your boat. If you are interested, contact me by email, and we can discuss details.
Our Services
1
Subscription Service
For one annual payment of $450 you have first priority access to me as often as you require. As one of my subscription clients, I encourage you to contact me as often as you feel the need. You will have access to me by all the normal internet methods as well as through my sat phone when I am at sea or otherwise remote. In addition, you will receive a 10% discount on my current labor rate for any in-person projects or delivery services.
The subscription service is invoiced annually, and you will not be automatically charged..
2
Ad hoc Service
If you feel your need doesn't justify a full subscription, I can still help you with one problem at a time for a flat rate of $100 per issue. The fee is triggered by my final solution or recommendation, not just asking the question. If I feel your question is outside of my area of expertise, I'll tell you up front, and there is no charge.
What's Included & How it Works
I will share my knowledge and experience with any aspect of sailboat cruising. Mechanical, electrical, rigging, sail performance, system upgrades, weather routing, provisioning, etc...
Getting in touch with me is usually pretty easy. Normal channels of voice, text, email, and video conferencing all work. If we happen to be offshore, or unusually remote, all of my subscribers will have my satphone contact information where text, voice and email all work well anywhere in the world.
I can not realistically promise that I will be able to deliver 24/7 access. There is after all just one of me. But I can promise that your issue will be my priority and receive my full attention. I will continue to work with you until the problem is resolved, or the issue is clear.
