Listers,

As most of you already know, I have moved from the soon-to-be-cold Northeast to 
sunny Sarasota. The process of moving a home and an office made for a very 
difficult premise of moving the Enterprise as well. 

So, after an exhaustive search for a delivery captain, I chose fellow-lister 
Captain Rick Brass. 

Rick, along with his two crew, Jim and Chuck, left City Island on August 4, 
with every detail meticulously planned, with all sorts of contingencies along 
the way — where to stop for fuel, where to go in the ICW, where to stay out and 
go all night, marinas to get supplies, etc. And, of course, Rick provided me 
with a website to track the Enterprise’s movements with his SPOT transmitter. 

Were there mechanical and weather delays? Sure. But all were handled expertly 
and Rick always kept the safety of his crew and the Enterprise foremost in his 
planning. And, unlike many other delivery captains out there, he also kept an 
eye on my costs.

Also, apparently things can get pretty boring on the ICW, so his crew would 
spend their time doing maintenance. They tightened the engine mounts, adjusted 
the steering cables, cleaned the interior, and fixed little odds and ends. 

I could not be happier. The Enterprise has arrived at her new home at Venice 
Yacht Club and in better condition than when she departed. See:

So, should you ever be in the need for a delivery and want someone who is a C&C 
enthusiast, a seasoned captain, and who will do the trip at a price point that 
will put other services to shame, look no further than Rick and his team. I 
cannot recommend them enough. 

All the best,

Edd
