Truly Local, Truly Licensed — What to Check Before You Hire a Delivery Captain
Not every company advertising "Fort Pierce yacht delivery" is actually based here. Before you hire, ask three questions:
Is the company actually local?
Ateam Captains is based in Fort Pierce, FL — not a call center routing your delivery to a captain based hundreds of miles away.
What's the captain's actual license tonnage?
Most delivery captains in this region cap out at a 100-Ton license. Ateam's team is licensed from a minimum of 100-Ton up through 3,000 GT (Unlimited) — qualified for large yacht and megayacht deliveries other captains legally cannot take.
Is there a medical professional on board?
Ateam's lead captain is a Nationally Registered EMT (NREMT) and Florida EMT/Medic in addition to holding a USCG Master Captain license — a combination no other delivery captain service in this region currently offers.
What Our Clients Say
"I have owned several smaller vessels but recently purchased a 70 ft Dyna and needed some assistance delivering to its new dock. Captain Meurer was very helpful and we are now planning on retaining him again for our first trip to the Bahamas."
— Moris Smith
"The A Team Captains Yacht Management does what they say and clearly backs it up... The discounts received through exclusive Ateam membership were really worth the modest investment, only wish we had found the Ateam Captains sooner."

Yacht Delivery Pricing — Frequently Asked Questions
How much does it cost to hire a yacht delivery captain?
Licensed captain day rates typically range from $300 to $1,450+ per day, depending on vessel size, route complexity, and whether additional crew is required. Smaller coastal runs start at the lower end; large motor yachts with full crew command the higher rates.
How much does it cost to deliver a yacht from Florida to New York?
For a large motor yacht (roughly 90 feet), captain and crew labor typically runs $12,000 to $20,000, with a total delivered cost of $30,000 to $50,000+ once fuel, dockage, provisioning, and insurance are included. Every delivery is quoted individually.
What factors affect yacht delivery cost?
The main cost drivers are vessel size and fuel burn, total distance, offshore versus intracoastal routing, seasonal weather windows, crew size required by insurance, and dockage along the route.
Are your delivery captains licensed and insured?
Yes. Ateam Captains' licensed Masters hold at a minimum 100-Ton USCG credentials — up through 200 ton, 500 ton, 1600 ton, and 3000 GT (Unlimited) — depending on your needs with no geographical restrictions, and deliveries are conducted in compliance with the vessel owner's insurance requirements. Most local captain services stop at or below 100-Ton — Ateam Captains start there, making higher-tonnage vessels no problem. The Ateam Captains are at a minimum 100 ton USCG, up through 200 ton, 500 ton, 1600 ton, and 3000 GT (Unlimited) depending on your needs.

Does a delivery have to start or end in Fort Pierce?
No. Ateam Captains is based in Fort Pierce, FL, but Captain Meurer travels by car or plane to meet a vessel anywhere within the coverage area and deliver it to the requested destination — Fort Pierce does not need to be the origin or the destination.
