    Has anyone in the forum worked with Global Yacht Transport (globalyachttransport.com). We are looking at them for a sailboat relocation from the Med. to the Carib.

    Any first hand experience, good or otherwise would be appreciated.

    I have dealt with them on several occasions shipping boats from New England to the Med. The crews are all professionals and very easy to work with. I know of several (very hard to please) repeat customers so I am sure that they are doing something right. Not sure of their fees vs. Dockwise which is another great company to work with
