Yacht transport specialist Dockwise Yacht Transport (DYT) headquartered in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, USA hereby announces that commencing July 2005 Ketchikan, Alaska will be added as a regular port of call to its many yacht cruising destinations.

Increasing demand and the succes of the expansion of regular destinations on the Pacific West Coast in 2003, made DYT decide to add the exciting cruising grounds of Alaska to its regular destination. The new port of call in Alaska will be Ketchikan. From this new destination of DYT one can experience the beauty of Alaska.

Our other destinations on the Pacific West Coast are; Vancouver (Canada), Ensenada and Lazaro Cardenas (Mexico), La Paz (Sea of Cortez) and Golfito (Costa Rica). Also destinations like the Mediterranean, Caribbean, US East Coast and the South Pacific will be serviced from the Pacific West Coast.

This summer Dockwise Yacht Transport has two scheduled transports arriving in Ketchikan, Alaska in June and August. All other loading ports or routes to the final destination of Ketchikan are published on the website of DYT: www.yacht-transport.com

The DYT tariffs also include an exclusive and cost-effective voyage insurance, which covers All Risks or Physical Loss or Damage to the yacht from the original loading port to the final discharge port, including any transshipment if required.

DYT also offers an attractive pre-payment condition, which can save the yacht owner or charterer up to 20% on the normal tariff.
