Buying
I'm considering buying a yacht in Holland and want to bring her to the Med next spring. Need a ballpark cost, it'll affect whether the deal makes sense.
42ft monohull · NL → Gibraltar
No time
We'll sail her up for two weeks of cruising, but don't have the time or energy to bring her back. Looking for a one-way delivery.
40ft Dufour · Oban → Salcombe
Bought
I just purchased a 33ft racing yacht in Jersey. Need it in Spain before truck loading to Barcelona, would like a quote first.
33ft Corby · Jersey → Santander

Who's behind Boat Gigs

Built by a sailor, for sailors.

I'm Tim, a sailor who got tired of chasing yacht deliveries through three Facebook groups and a chain of WhatsApp messages. Boat Gigs is the platform I wanted to exist: a quiet place where boat owners and captains can find each other and just talk.

Right now you can WhatsApp me directly when you post, no support queue, no chatbot, no offshore call center. Just me, replying when I can.

Posted a Med-to-Caribbean delivery on Sunday. Had three solid captains lined up by Tuesday. Sailed by Friday.

Boat Gigs replaced three Facebook groups for me. Profile, history, ratings, all in one place. It just works.

Honestly the first time hiring crew didn't feel like a gamble. Reviews, real names, one-click accept.

How much does it cost to post a yacht delivery?
Posting on Boat Gigs is free. We don't sit between you and the captain, so there are no platform fees on either side. The price you and the captain agree on is the price.
How fast do captains see my delivery?
The moment you publish, your delivery is live in the captain feed. Captains who fit your route reach out with a short pitch and their qualifications, and you decide who to accept.
Who can post a yacht delivery job?
Anyone with a free Boat Gigs account can post a delivery. Yacht owners, brokerages, charter companies, and management firms all use the platform to find qualified captains and crew.
How do I check whether a captain is qualified?
Every captain has a public profile with their licences, the boats they've sailed, miles logged, and history on the platform. You read it, message them, get on a call, and decide who delivers your boat. Bad actors can be blocked permanently, they won't see your deliveries again.
What types of work can I find on Boat Gigs?
Yacht deliveries are the core, but you'll also find captain positions, crew positions, charter work, and maintenance jobs. Filter by work type to narrow down.
Is the poster's identity public?
No. To protect posters from unsolicited contact, only the first three letters of their name are public until they accept a captain. Full contact details are shared after acceptance.
