Sailboat Trucking and Global Shipping Services

Sailboat Transport Specialist

We specialize in mono-hull sailboat over-the-road transports as well as international sailboat shipping. Our trucking service covers all of the U.S. and Canada. Our sailboat trailers are specialty-built to handle sailboats up to 75′ in length. We have developed our own “safe system” for loading high keel sailboats and our adjustable trailer cradle systems are the most advanced made for long-haul moves.

No Substitute for Experience

We make many cross-country truck transports per year. Our professional drivers are highly trained for safe loading procedures with all sailboat transport moves, which are the key foundation to any highway haul. We understand the complex State Regulations and always make sure that our oversize permits are in legal order prior to making any move. This ensures that our insurance coverage is in 100% effect; not following laws within each State can cause coverage to lapse so staying legal is of paramount importance.

Preparing for Your Sailboat Transport

We recommend utilizing local marinas, boatyards and riggers to prepare your sailboat for shipping when needed. We have strong relationships with numerous marinas that can provide our customers with direct service of which we will provide advise and/or recommendations if needed.

For a frank and honest conversation about how to best transport your yacht, please contact us today.

We have the professional service you deserve for your Sailboat Transport.

Everyone with Yacht Trucking was extremely easy to communicate with and I received excellent service from the driver and loader. We felt very comfortable with the entire process from the minute we signed our contract; to the day our boat was delivered to the port in Port Everglades from Ventura and loaded onto the ship’s deck; all the way through until it arrived in Majorca safe and sound; exceptional people to work with for shipping sailboats overseas.

YT just completed the delivery of our Beneteau 393 from Texas to t he San Francisco Bay area. I was very impressed by their professionalism and attention to detail. Not just double checking, but triple checking important items. Their crew was very helpful with the MANY questions I had and provided a lot of details that helped me understand and feel comfortable throughout the entire process. Highly recommended!

I was very pleased with the professionalism, price, and service from Yacht Trucking when they moved my 51’ Bluewater Coastal Cruiser from Marathon in the Florida Keys north to Pensacola.  I would definitely hire them again!

Yacht Trucking relocated my 40′ trawler from Maine to Kentucky and the transport could not have gone any better. Getting out of the New England States is always a challenge with oversize loads and they worked hard during planning to have the necessary permits and routes without overspending. The driver kept me updated throughout the each day with texts, pics and phone calls as needed to show how the trip was going. Their equipment is first-rate. Highly recommended service.

Exceptional customer service with top-notch loadmasters that were especially careful when loading my motor cruiser onto the cradle and ship. I have moved my boat across the Atlantic 3 times and this was by far my best experience. I would highly recommend Yacht Trucking to anyone shipping their yacht across the Atlantic or the World and will use them again when the need arises.

Great Affordable Service – they just finished moving my 45′ Sea Ray from Miami to San Diego – very reasonable cost – ahead of schedule delivery – no damage – no extras – Great to find that SERVICE WITH A SMILE (my smile ) is still available in the US. Would highly recommend these guys to move a boat for anyone in need.

Outstanding experience transporting my houseboat from West Virginia to upstate New York. Equipment was specialized for transporting boats. The driver really knew his stuff and was very detailed in loading. I felt very confident that boat would arrive safely. Good communication and fair rates. I would highly recommend if them to anyone who needs to move a boat.

***** 5 STAR SERVICE!!! Yacht Trucking did an outstanding job relocating our 40′ sailboat from San Diego, CA to Anacortes, WA. Our driver was extremely professional and took expert care in getting our boat secured for transport. He remained in constant communication throughout the trip, sending daily updates of his progress.  He put all my anxiety to rest and delivered our boat early in perfect condition. There’s no doubt that I will pursue his services again without hesitation.

Flagship Boat Transport | Prepare Before Your Yacht Transport

Getting ready for your yacht transport.

The safety of everyone on the road and your yacht must be yacht transporters’ first consideration. The word Yacht is a term used to describe a large or oversize boat. When we hear the word “Yacht”, it brings to mind images of a very large boat.

Some are fit for a king, others are working vessels like sport fishers, and some are just for family fun. In our world of yacht transportation , the word generally describes a boat that is larger than 14 feet wide, 14 feet tall and is around or over 40,000 pounds in weight.

Our Yacht shipping specialists are very knowledgeable and have years of experience in the planning of moving oversize boats. We have transported boats all across the country and around the world. We have moved vessels of all sizes, shapes, makes and models. Some of the brands of boats we have moved are Carver, Mainship, SeaRay, Silverton, Nordic Tug, Ocean Alexander, Hunter, Catalina, Beneteau, Swan, and Oyster just to name a few.

Feel free to contact us with any questions you may have, or for a free quote on your upcoming Yacht Transportation needs.

Our Boat Relocation Specialists Handle All The Planning For You

We do not charge a fuel surcharge. We feel fuel surcharges are for companies that do not manage their trucks properly or know how to quote a boat relocation correctly.

There are times when a state will put additional restrictions on their permits. These are usually due to road construction and/or the time of year move is scheduled for. Because we are not aware of this ahead of time, they may not be included in your quote.  You will find a quick overview of the most common rules and regulations, listed by state, in the menu found on the right of this page.

Moving An Oversize Power Or Sailboat Requires Extra Planning and Compliance

When transporting sailboats and powerboats that are oversize, some of the regulations we have to comply with are greater than when moving a smaller vessel. We are always required to use pilot cars and pole cars when the vessel exceeds the state or city size regulations.

There is also the need to meet any curfews that are given to us, as far as when and where we can travel while transporting an oversize Yacht. These additional requirements are set by the states and cities that are issuing the permits, your yacht transportation company must be aware of this.

Over-height Yacht Transport

Some flybridges are removed due to excessive height and must be transported on the boat, on the transport trailer, and in some cases with a second truck and trailer. We hope this page has been helpful to you.

There is so much more to moving an oversize boat than just loading her up and hitting the road. We invite you to contact us directly with any questions or concerns you may have regarding your Yacht transportation service needs. We want to be your Yacht Transport Company and are always happy to help. Let us give you a free quote today!

International yacht shipping requires more time and knowledge of international shipping . Yachts must be properly prepped and height needs to be reduced in many cases. A yacht transport company needs to assist with all aspects of moving your yacht. A flexible shipping schedule will aid your yacht transport service in getting you the best price.

Upgraded Army Watercraft to Enhance Indo-Pacific Maneuverability in 2025

Posted: May 16, 2024 | Last updated: May 16, 2024

Repairs on the U.S. Army's new Maneuver Support Vessel-Light (MSV-L) are ongoing and expected to continue through the end of the year, with hopes of completing possibly into early 2025. Despite the delay caused by mechanical issues, the vessel is scheduled to journey to Hawaii for extensive testing with the 8th Theater Sustainment Command.

Maj. Gen. Jered Helwig, who is set to depart from his current role in July and has been nominated for a third star and the deputy commander position at US Transportation Command, provided an outline of the tentative test plans that will be influential for fleet advancements.

The prototype's anticipated arrival in Hawaii signifies a crucial phase in the development of the MSV-L, which is set to replace the outdated Landing Craft Mechanized-8 (LCM-8). With capabilities for greater speed and heavier payloads, including M1 Abrams, Stryker, and Bradley fighting vehicles, the new watercraft is a significant upgrade for the Army's operations in the Indo-Pacific region.

The MSV-L is not just a transport vessel for military vehicles; it's also designed to ferry food and medical supplies, reflecting its versatility and importance for logistic missions.

Once in Hawaii, soldiers will assess the watercraft over a nine-month to a year period to confirm its performance in the operational environment. "Everything that we can knock off that list we will do in the archipelago … because that allows us to do the tests in the environment that the vessel will operate in ultimately," said Helwig.

The MSV-L will also participate in a Joint Pacific Multinational Readiness Center (JPMRC) exercise in late 2025, further testing its capabilities before it moves to the east coast of the mainland United States for additional training.

Budgetary considerations have also been at the forefront of the MSV-L's development, with Army acquisition head Doug Bush stating in October 2023 that the projected MSV-L price point had risen but was now in a "much better place."

Fiscal documents revealed the estimated per-vessel cost ranging from $31 million to $48 million, with the FY25 request proposing $66.5 million to purchase one MSV-L. The first four vessels may be pricier, but subsequent units are expected to cost less, a reflection of the service's effort to balance capability with affordability.

In the interim, Helwig's command has adapted by leasing a US-flagged commercial vessel approximately the size of an LSV to maintain support capacity in the region.

This stopgap solution allows the Army to evaluate the pros and cons of such leasing arrangements for future operations.

Moreover, the Army is exploring teaming options with manned and unmanned maritime vehicles. Interest has been piqued by the Marine Corps' work on the Autonomous Low-Profile Vessel concept, with one such vessel slated to participate in Valiant Shield 2024.

The Army is keen on understanding the performance of these autonomous platforms and their potential integration into future operations.

The MSV-L's journey began back in October when the prototype was launched at Vigor, LLC's marine fabrication facility in Vancouver, marking a significant milestone as the first of a new class of Army Watercraft. The MSV-L represents a modernized landing craft aimed at improving the speed and effectiveness of the Army’s dynamic force repositioning.

With the capacity to transport a combat-configured M1 Abrams tank or multiple other payload configurations, the MSV(L) is a versatile addition to the fleet. The vessel's launch, despite supply chain challenges, was a testament to the commitment to modernizing Army watercraft.

A low-rate initial production decision for the MSV(L) is targeted for early 2023, and the prototype's delivery to the Army Mariner community at Joint Base Langley-Eustis is expected in early 2024. The advancements in military watercraft technology embodied by the MSV(L) will enhance the Army's operational capabilities in various environments, a critical aspect of maintaining readiness and flexibility in response to potential threats.
