Boat transport

For a hassle-free transportation experience for your boat to Tulsa, it is important to furnish the transport company with precise measurements of your vessel and convey specific transportation needs. This will aid in ensuring your boat's secure and efficient transportation to its intended destination. Verifying the transport company has sufficient insurance coverage is crucial.

Powerboat shipping

In the transportation of powerboats, meticulous attention to detail is crucial. Weight and height requirements are critical factors to consider. Depending on your boat's specifications, specific components may require removal to meet these prerequisites. Additionally, draining water and fuel is important before transport, a standard procedure for all vessels, including wood-made ones. Although it may appear obvious, being mindful of minor details can significantly impact the successful completion of the task.

Sailboat Transport

For safely transporting sailboats, it's suggested to keep the height of the load to 13 feet and 6 inches or less. If you have a big sailboat, you might need a special thing called a "pole car" to transport it safely, but that could make transportation more expensive. If you need to transport the sailboat a short distance of fewer than 400 miles, using a pole car might be cheaper than removing hard-to-move gear from the deck. To keep the cost low and ensure a safe journey, using the right equipment and an experienced driver is important.

Yacht shipping

Transporting yachts can be tricky, as the vessel's height is a crucial factor to consider. To ensure that transportation is safe and affordable, reducing the yacht's size when loaded onto the trailer is important. Planning carefully and determining the best route for transporting the yacht is also necessary.

Small boat transport

When transporting a small boat on a trailer, it's crucial to follow these safety guidelines:

• Fasten or secure the canvas and bows.
• Check that the bow and transom straps are functioning correctly.
• Make sure the trailer has a valid license or a transporter tag.
• Store the cushions below or secure them tightly.
• Secure all loose items to prevent them from falling off during transport.
• If feasible, remove electronics and keep them securely stored.

International Boat Shipping

If you want to ship a boat overseas, it's important to follow these steps for successful transport:

• Schedule the shipment for an appropriate time.
