Last I checked into moving a boat, it was something like $4/mile plus rig/unrig 
at each end.

It will probably come out to somewhere between 50 and 100 percent of what the 
boat is worth. I know of someone that used a low-bid carrier from an online 
site and the story was epic, but not in a good way. It involved the boat owner 
hiring welders to fix the truck in mid-trip and dodging cops because the driver 
was not legally licensed.



If your friend is on a low budget, she really can’t afford to deal with 
shenanigans like that. Also note from everything I have heard from my SoCal 
buddies lately you can’t just show up and live-aboard like you can here.

She is an accomplished sailor and she lives on the boat now, has for a long 
time, as I said in my last sentence. Living on a boat at a marina is not as 
demanding as single-handed sailing. She sailed the boat from Seattle to the 
east coast but that was some time ago.

I have one as well, paper only. 

  This was online by section (not sure if it was complete) with an 
Oakville-based website dedicated to that model - primarily a group of local

Likely one of that group is on this list and hopefully may have or have access

   It was not Andrews that could not do the point-to-point in the 
United States. The company is Bothwell Marine that recently moved a 
Hughes 35 from Miami to Southwestern Ontario for $7,000 CAD and they are 
not able to do origin and destination in the U.S. There must be 
additional licensing involved for a foreign company to be able to 
operate point to point in the US. Anyway, that is what they told me when 
I called on the telephone today. Size matters for cost as others have 
noted, and the Hughes 35 is 35.5 X 10.3.

I had very mixed experience with uship.com.

The first bidder was a crook and took the down payment and disappeared. The 
second (the one who actually moved the boat) was really great. I would gladly 
recommend him, but he cannot move anything that big (I think 28' was his 
limit). So, be careful out there.

It will probably come out to somewhere between 50 and 100 percent of what the

She is an accomplished sailor and she lives on the boat now, has for a long 
time, as I said in my last sentence. Living on a boat at a marina is not as 
demanding as single-handed sailing. She sailed the boat from Seattle to the 
east coast but that was some time ago.

A friend of mine with a 35-foot sailboat wants to move it from Cape 
Canaveral to San Diego. She is a bit frail to be sailing it back herself 
or she would be doing that. Anyway, the prices she has found so far are 
rather high. A New York based company quoted her $25,000 USD.


A different friend had his 35 foot Hughes trucked from Miami to 
Southwestern Ontario a few months ago for $7,000 CAD, so that seems a 
bit much. Unfortunately, that company is Canadian and can't do 
point-to-point shipping within the United States.
Any recommendations or anecdotal experience would be helpful. I know 
that several people on (or who were on) the list have looked into this 
or done similar moves themselves.

Thanks in advance,

I think I might avoid the low bidder for something like that!

Thought did cross my mind!

I also got a bid from a 'delivery skipper' that was even lower than that
through UShip.  Not a chance I'd use him!.

If the boat is too fragile to just sail to San Diego, is the boat worth 
shipping across the country?
I could probably find a fragile old 35 foot boat for $25K in California.
Also note the Canadian shipper *might* be able to ship the boat to Canada and 
then ship her to San Diego, but you might have to pay customs both ways ☹

Steve,

I've been looking for a company to move a 49 foot boat east that we are
looking at.  I got two bids - $14,000 and $26,000.  Low bid was from
wemoveboats.com through uship.com

I think he said the owner is too frail to sail it that far.  Perhaps she could 
find someone to deliver it.
