50′ Hatteras Convertible Delivery – From Puerto Rico to Florida

DAY 1 (February 2, 2011): Florida yacht broker, Justin Onofrietti departed for Cap Cana, Puerto Rico today to begin a 5-day journey to bring his 2000 50′ Hatteras Convertible listing, Just For You, to Fort Lauderdale, for a quick sale.

Upon arrival, Justin will feature the Hatteras listing at Denison’s New River docks in downtown Fort Lauderdale for maximum exposure to potential sportfish buyers.

Justin has charted his course carefully and will be checking all systems tomorrow morning for immediate departure.

Justin’s real-world experience as a megayacht captain for many years, as well as his numerous new-build construction projects make Justin a popular yacht broker to yacht owners that desire delivery advice, refit counsel, and maintenance and yacht management direction from their yacht broker.

Please check in over the next few days as Justin will provide us updates with photos and comments on his day’s travels.

Day 2 Update: Justin arrived safely into the Dominican Republic tonight.

“Landed safely in the dark and through 6-8 foot seas it was a messy day. That boat is incredible, handled like a champ. We were both soaked when we pulled in!”
