Halcyon Yachts Reviews 

We recruited Halcyon to run an IPV coded sea trial on a 53' ketch we are looking to purchase. The service was great - very well organised. Simon (the skipper) was knowledgeable and it was fantastic to get an independent point of view on the boat. I’d highly recommend Halcyon - a thoroughly professional outfit.

Delivery a yacht thousands of miles is no mean feat. A huge thank you to your excellent skipper, Mike, and his intrepid crew for delivering our yacht safely and in good time. I would have no hesitation in recommending Halcyon. You have a great reputation for a very good reason.

Our experience with Halcyon has been nothing but traumatising, and financially debilitating. The issues we have experienced are to many to write about here, however, most concerning is the involvement their skipper, Micheal Stewart, had in us being taken advantage of by many thousands of dollars. In our opinion, Halcyon have neglected there duty of care and 5 star experience. This makes me question their ability to handle difficult situations in a professional and honest manner.

We are currently out of pocket ~ $50,000 AUD and more by the time the boat arrives in Australia.

Halcyon why don't you reply to our emails and work with us to come up with a resolution? Some form of compensation or refund should be the beginning at least.

The boat only travelled 1163 NM yet we've been charged for the entire trip, plus 25 delay days in the Maldives (at no fault of our own or the boat), which has impacted our business to the sum of a lot of money. Our catamaran will be chartered in Australia, therefore everyday it is not here we are loosing thousands.

We feel you are leaving us hanging as the situation seems to have been ignored on your behalf. As a business owner, surely you can understand the impact this can have on a company. We ask you to do the right thing, and refund the money you owe us at least.

Very pleased with the service from Halcyon. They helped us deliver our yacht across the Atlantic. Great guys, excellent support. We will be back in touch for more help next year. Great job all round!

Pete and his team were super efficient. Everyone wants their boat delivered, "yesterday". But their advice and patience, waiting for the correct weather window was the right call. They were proactive on all aspects and it was great to get the regular feedback on the actual location of the boat during this 4 day delivery trip. Thank you. Mike - Dehler 42

We used Halcyon to relocate our 36ft yacht from Poole to Largs, a trip of about 500nm, in October 2021; whilst we are experienced at sailing the waters of the Channel, our night time experience and long passage experience is limited, and it was appropriate to seek more experienced assistance for this passage in October weather. Halcyon were brilliant to deal with from first contact to after safe arrival. Skipper David was highly experienced, with safety first and foremost, content to plan on seeking shelter from adverse weather and content to press on when reasonable to do so. The boat arrived much cleaner than she departed too! David and Brian were a real pleasure to sail with, great company and totally competent. We would not hesitate to recommend Halycon to anyone needing assistance to relocate a vessel, for any distance.

I have worked with Halcyon yachts for at least 5 years, and have found Pete and his team to be most professional. I have over 100k successful miles moving all types of sailing vessels around the world. Happy to reccomend Pete and his team at Halcyon for your next vessel delivery.

I’ve used Halcyon Yachts for many years, and I’ve always been massively impressed with their service. Pete and his team go the extra mile to ensure the job is done with the utmost professionalism. Thank you all.

Hi my name is Steve Marriott I needed a yacht deliverd from Bangor NI to Plymouth but weather conspirerd to hold the delivery in Milford Haven for 15 days Living in Weymouth the crew brought her all the way home to Portland what a wonderful job by Andy and the fantastic crew cheers all

I have worked with Halcyon yachts for the past three years as a freelance Skipper, I have completed in the region of 40 deliveries. In that time I have never had a complaint of the service they provide. Yacht deliveries, by there nature can be challenging and difficult, in every instance where myself and my crew have needed help and support from Pete Green and his team I have never been let down. Halcyon yachts are very reliable and totally focus on completing the yacht deliveries safely and cost effectively for the clients. Halcyon yachts are experts in their field and I highly recommend their service.

Halcyon Yachts are the 'go to' for your boat delivery. A professional service from start to finish. Highly RECOMMENDED.

Halcyon Yachts are the people to go to if you want a first class service. All the team at Halcyon Yachts are excellent at communicating throughout the process to deliver your yacht in the most efficient and safe way possible.
The skippers evidently highly trained and have a great deal of experience of sailing all sorts of vessels.They have extremely reasonable and competitive prices. We would not hesitate to come to Halycon if we need assistance in future to relocate our yacht, and would certainly recommend them to anyone with similar needs.

I would wholeheartedly recommend Halcyon Yachts, they are a highly professional service that puts customer service at the heart of everything they do. When they moved my last boat, it arrived to me in better condition than it was in when it left the marina! They certainly deserve their fantastic reputation

Very professional, great management, would definitely use again and fully recommend to anyone needing a yacht delivered.

diabolical service. Did not even get our boat a third of the way from Seychelles to Australia, and still have the cheek to not refund a penny. They were completely out of there depth but to proud to admit it. Abandoned our boat and a female crew member in the Maldives. To top it off their dodgy Skipper, Micheal Stewart, took advantage of the situation and attempted to sell the boat. Unprofessional and unethical. Wouldn’t let them loose with a rowing boat on a lake. Beware …

In reply to your comment, it's only slanderous if it's untrue.

Very professional service with some of the friendliest crew you'll meet. Make the whole process seamless and stress free. Would highly recommend

I have worked with Halcyon as a freelance skipper on a number of deliveries and have always found them to be highly professional and really straightforward to deal with. The vast majority of owners have been given a fantastic service, providing feedback accordingly. Highly recommend!

Halcyon Yachts were great from the start, knowledgable and took the stress and worry out of our delivery! Highly recommended!

Halcyon Yachts sent a very professional, kind and friendly skipper and crew to help us sail our beloved 114 year old 66ft schooner from Salford quays to the beautiful Helford river in Cornwall , very pleasant experience throughout- I would highly recommend them - Thankyou Halcyon Yachts

Halcyon bought my Moody 346 from Roscoff to Gosport, the communication was excellent, the price was reasonable and she was left spotlessly clean. I was very pleased with them and would happily recommend them for a similar trip.
