EXAMPLE OF: Itemized Breakdown of Cost
This is an example estimate of TIME and is contingent to the actual speed of the boat regardless of wind or currents.
Departure Norfolk VA to destination Fort Lauderdale FL
Approximate Mileage 800 nautical miles (depending on actual marina locations) divided by speed 7 knots (Sailboat) = 114 sailing hours.
Hours divided by 12 hours days is = 9.5 days depending on weather.
Estimated Days: 10 to complete voyage. Additional days not included in this estimate would be and extra charge at agreed daily rate above the cost of estimate.
NOTE: The speed of the boat that we use to calculate sailing time comes from you, the vessel OWNER! If you tell me the boat is faster than it really is the estimate could be off by hours or even days resulting in more cost to you. DON'T EXAGGERATE!
1 Captain @ $350 per day +
1 Deckhands @ $150 per day +
