Types of San Jose, California, Boat Transport Services

yacht middle of the sea

Various types of shipping services are offered by A-1 Auto Transport. Whether it is going to be Overland, RoRo, Container, or Interstate depends on the conditions of your shipping and the specifications of your boat. They have to be in adherence to the regulations of the California Department of Transport.

Boat transport

Your boat could be shrink-wrapped, wheeled, or delivered with any of our diverse methods based on the specifications and requirements of your recipient port or marina. San Jose, California, has two marinas that could accommodate large-sized boats. However, if you are shipping from San Jose, California, the requirement of your destination marina may be different.

Powerboat shipping

A major consideration for shipping powerboats is the route. It must be carefully planned out to avoid low bridges and narrow roads. So you should contact your marina for information on the best way to plan the movement and ensure the safety of the boat.

Sailboat Transport

Cleaning the sailboat can be time-consuming but necessary to maintain its appearance and prevent damage to the boat's surfaces. You will also have to remove the mast, boom, and standing rigging of the sailboat and secure it underneath the deck.

Yacht shipping

A yacht is a big boat that can easily sustain damage if its parts of the flybridge and radar arch are not removed and kept safe. Having them attached during shipping also creates the possibility of surpassing the specified maximum boat shipping height.

Small boat transport

Most small boat shippers utilize personal trucks in towing small boats because of their sizes and end up incurring damages and penalties. Agencies transport boats in line with regulations, and our experience and professionalism help us to avoid possible accidents and penalties.

International Boat Shipping

The regulations for international boat shipping depend on the country involved. You have to comply with environmental and safety standards and obtain permits, insurance, bill of lading, and other documentation.

Container Boat Shipping

Container boat shipping is an essential method of transporting boats internationally. The process mostly involved transportation across the world's oceans. It requires specialized infrastructure, proper cargo handling, and documentation. The presentation of proper documentation is necessary for customs clearance and compliance with international regulations.

How Much Does It Cost to Ship a Boat to or from San Jose, California?

The cost of shipping a boat reduces when it is done using our service. We own the facilities for the transportation process and easily decide on affordable rates based on the distance of shipping and the specifications of the boat. Shipping processes that are expected to take more miles require more work and cost higher than those that are conducted within shorter distances.

How to Prepare a Boat for Shipping

  • Wash the boat and use a chamois or microfiber towel to dry the boat.
  • Secure all loose and valuable items in proper storage locations to prevent damage or loss.
  • Disconnect the battery and secure the cables.
  • Drain the fuel and water tanks to a quarter of the tank.
  • The bilge, water systems, air conditioners, and pumps need to be drained.
  • Secure the engines.
  • Remove the antenna, satellite dishes, and radar units of the boat.
  • Disconnect all batteries.
