Matt could not have been more helpful. Having only met virtually due to Covid he took the work on, created the project management plan and is executing the work with humour, attention to detail and budget. He has a good network, communicates excellently and has got the grasp of the project. A delight to work with.

“Matt and Craig are two friendly and great chaps who keep my boat safe and clean throughout the year. It is a pleasure arriving on the boat as all the maintenance issues, (be it electrical, plumbing or mechanical) are dealt with by them throughout the year and I am constantly kept informed and updated on jobs I have asked them to do.”

Many thanks to Matthew and Philippe for the safe delivery of Samara to Mylor Yacht Harbour from the east coast this summer. The service received from ThumbsUp Yacht Delivery was extremely good from initial contact through to job completion. Matthew is a very affable chap and clearly very competent at his job. Negotiations were straightforward, fair and stress free and Matthew was prepared to tailor the service to meet my needs. ThumbsUp kept me well informed at all times as to status and progress and adopted a relaxed and friendly attitude. Well done ThumbsUp! Peter Eastwood

Samara, Dufour 36

Diane and I commissioned Thumbs Up to help us with an Owner Assisted passage, to bring, Alchemy, our Moody 42, from Lefkas, Greece, back to the Solent. The skipper, Doug, was just what we had hoped for. He instilled great confidence with his quiet efficient management of the passage. He and Lisa, the other crew member provided for the trip by Thumbs Up,were great to have aboard. It was obvious that Doug\’s wealth of sailing experience meant that we and Alchemy were in good hands, which resulted in a passage that caused much less anxiety for us, than we had expected.

Want us to deliver your yacht?

I couldn’t be more pleased with Matt and the Thumbs Up team. Although I hadn’t planned on this delivery when the boat was lifted for the winter and I hadn’t been onboard to prepare Thumbs Up took everything in their stride and treated her like their own. I was kept fully in touch with progress with the tracker and with email updates from their shore support team. Great job – THANK YOU! Derek Middlemas

I would like to say thank you to Matt and his crew for safely delivering Blue Octopus to Essex. Despite engine problems they completed the delivery on time. I would highly recommend Matt and his crew to anyone who needs a yacht delivery. After some dealings with other delivery companies it was refreshing to talk to someone who was available at short notice and got on with the task set even though there were a few minor issues to solve before the voyage. Blue Octopus is now safely moored at North Fambridge with the engine issue diagnosed and part sent away for repair. The boat was left clean and tidy after the voyage. Matt we can’t thank you enough!

My thanks and appreciation to Matthew and Lyle for their successful delivery especially for their patience and flexibility whilst we waited for that Autopilot to be fitted prior to departure. Still can’t believe we managed to get to Cagliari with days to spare. I was very impressed by their professionalism and personalities and can thoroughly recommend Thumbs Up to anyone looking for a delivery company. Thanks guys. Pete Williams
