I spent the day with Patrick, a new Jeanneau 439 owner. He was overwhelmed with the boat and how well he was treated by John Kuony and Cruising Yachts. You made a very happy client. We did some sail handling, tacks and gybes, close quarters motoring and docking. We ended up in his new Sausalito slip surrounded by well-wishers and drinking some fine Danish brew John was able to stock in his fridge. I too, was impressed by the level of service exhibited by John and from all at Cruising Yachts. I've worked with quite a few dealerships over the years as a delivery skipper. However, none of them compare to you guys!
I first met John at a cruising sailboat show more than a dozen years ago. Since that day, he has become my most trusted boating colleague, mentor and friend. In anticipation of my retirement, John spent countless hours helping me settle on the characteristics of a sailing yacht best suiting my wants and needs and then found me a perfect 46' sloop. After that purchase, John referred to me to the absolute best people for boat survey, insurance, marine electronics, rigging and engine mechanics to ready the yacht for blue water cruising. John continued to assist me with encouragement and advice at every turn until I realized my retirement dream and sailed from California to Hawaii. Himself a lifetime sailor and cruiser, John knows sailing and sailboats, and is generous with that knowledge. He cares deeply about his clients, their safety, satisfaction, happiness and success. I wouldn't buy a boat without him.
