Preparing Your Yacht for Export or Over-the-Road Transport
(Optional Recommendations)
The safest option is to remove items like GPS & Fish Finders from the boat, or safely lock them away on board and have the key available at its destination. It will be needed when clearing customs.
Your vessel should be as clean as possible. The hull should be free from barnacles and other organic contamination. The inside should be vacuumed and free of dirt or mud to avoid any hold-ups and extra expense with quarantine.
Trailers should be in good roadworthy condition. Any damages resulting from a faulty trailer will not be covered by the Yacht Transporter’s insurance.
Ships’ masts should be removed from the deck prior to transport. Keels, Radar Arches, Fly Bridges, Swim Platforms, and Bowsprits — please ask us for guidance.
Remember, reducing size and volume reduces Yacht Transport costs.
