To make sure that the books and teaching supplies have reached their Caribbean destinations and are being properly utilized, Hands Across the Sea co-founders T.L. and Harriet Linskey visit recipient schools and communities from December through May.
The visits give Hands the opportunity to work on school improvement projects and to enlist cruising sailor volunteers to support local communities. In addition to books and resources, Hands has supplied classrooms with special “reading corners,” bookshelves for classroom libraries, and most recently built a literacy center and refurbished the school library in an underserved secondary school on the island of Dominica. We are rewarded by group hugs and smiling children and teachers who are thrilled to have high-quality, near-new books!
Multihull Company did a great job with advertising and selling our boat. Also with the closing and documentation work. Highly recommend them and our broker, Dunbar Lewis.
Great service in buying my first boat, Chris and the team really helped by going the extra mile! I recommend them for anyone looking for a new or used boat.
My wife and I worked with Andrew Hodgdon to sell our 2021 FP Elba 45. In addition to skillfully carrying out the traditional yacht broker responsibilities, Andrew went above-and-beyond to ensure that we were well-positioned to sell in a competitive market. For example, Andrew helped out with much-appreciated repairs and hurricane prep, among other things. Trustworthy, intelligent, and conscientious, Andrew’s communications with us and the buyer were always thoughtful and forward-thinking, and fairly represented our interests.
