Working alongside some of the most experienced yacht delivery skippers and crew in the industry, I have thoroughly enjoyed sailing with Halcyon Yachts. From my initial contact they have exceeded expectations and have always gone the extra mile. I highly recommend them to both clients and crew!

I have crewed for quite a few yacht delivery companies and twice now for Halcyon. I would put the two Halcyon trips at the top of my list for the professionalism of the skippers and the great attitude of all crew members. The satellite tracker is a great idea - keeping the family involved and up to date. Delivering a brand new boat is a great challenge but the experience and store of tricks of the Halcyon crews made sure the delivery was not just of a clean boat but a NEW boat!
