Thanks very much, George (8/15/2009)
Response: George, thank you for your consideration. I have placed a bid below as 941geoff, click on 941geoff to see my profile, you will see I am well qualified for this delivery and should answer most of your questions. I have logged over 6000NM this Spring and early Summer on boats 40 - 74 feet, including a 2300NM two handed, non stop, delivery from Grenada to Texas. This site prohibits me from providing specific references until after you accept my bid. If at that time, you don't like what you see, or we can't work out the specifics, Uship will refund your binder. I am not bonded, you would add me to your existing policy at no charge. The dates we can work out, I just need to be finished by the first week of October as I am booked on the Deerfoot 74 for the balance of October. Geoff (8/17/2009)
