Seawind 1600
Gold Coast to Opua
Over the past several years we have completed yacht deliveries throughout Asia, Australia and New Zealand, moving both sailing and motor yachts across offshore and coastal routes.
These deliveries include passages across the Tasman Sea, the Coral Sea, Southeast Asian waters including Singapore and Thailand, and coastal relocations along the Australian and New Zealand seaboards. Vessel types range from performance cruising yachts to long-range motor yachts and catamarans.
Each delivery requires route planning, weather analysis, crew coordination and risk management appropriate to the region and season. While every vessel and passage differs, the operational standards remain consistent.
For region-specific information, see:
This archive provides a record of completed movements across these regions.
