Marco Heitz - Master of Yachts Unlimited

Testimonials

* Marco arrived on board with his own thorough handover checklist and immediately embraced the job at hand. He was responsible for appointing his own mate for the delivery and together with the four regular crew on Hortense, embarked on the voyage without delay. Hortense arrived in Puerto Montt well within the requested time frame and was in as fine a condition on arrival as she was when she left San Diego. I can recommend Marco as a relief or delivery skipper knowing that he will use his global sailing experience and knowledge to do a good job.

Gary Hancock, Captain of expedition yacht Hortense 

* My experience of Marco is that he brings a high level of competence and enthusiasm to anything that he agrees to undertake. He is a totally charming, genuine guy. He presents very well and 'what you see is what you get'. His previous experience in the Finnish Navy, his military diving skills, his mechanical and electrical abilities make him unusually capable and versatile. With Marco, we always felt completely confident, even in potentially difficult weather or sea conditions. To my mind his judgement was excellent and he never took unreasonable risks.

* Marco has been absolutely superb - he has handled Whale Song beautifully in all situations and has done so in a most cost effective manner. Marco showed that he could park Whale Song in a closet! 

Grant Wilson, Owner of expedition yacht Whale Song

* Big thanks for a fantastic job last week. Great in all ways. Wonderful service, food, sailing and program. Could not have been better. Well done! You did such a splendid job on board, we had a great time with you and I have been singing your praises…

* I have officially taken over from Marco now and he has gone to the airport. All went well and he has been very professional and very helpful throughout. It is obvious that he has a big boat background with commercial experience, a huge asset in the paperwork area which was greatly lacking on board. I just felt that his input and experience should be noted and his assistance greatly appreciated.
