Owner Support
Private training, yacht deliveries, new build advice & yacht management
Preparing to buy a boat, taking delivery of a new yacht, or getting ready to cruise? Outer Passage helps owners make informed decisions, get to know their boats, and develop the skills to operate them confidently. Our experience comes from living aboard, crossing oceans, commissioning new yachts, and managing boats.
Learn aboard your own boat
We work with owners and cruising couples aboard their yachts, helping them become comfortable handling the boat and sharing responsibilities.
Training can cover docking, anchoring, sail handling and trim, reefing, boat systems, passage planning, and working together underway. We focus on the things you want to feel more confident doing.
Yacht Deliveries
Professional deliveries, with the option to join aboard.
We plan and carry out yacht deliveries, including passage preparation, weather routing, and shore support.
For owners joining the passage, the delivery becomes an opportunity to learn: get familiar with your yacht’s systems, practice sail handling, and experience the routines and decisions involved in taking her offshore.
Get advice during your build and commissioning
Advice informed by commissioning and operating new yachts.
We help owners work through equipment choices, systems layouts, and practical details that affect sailing and everyday life aboard.
Yacht management
We work with owners whose yachts host Outer Passage sailing experiences, coordinating the crew, sailing schedule, and day-to-day operation and care of the boat.
We discuss your own use of the yacht, the boat’s suitability for the program, and the responsibilities involved before agreeing how the arrangement will work.
