What to tell the transporter
Give the exact marina, boat dimensions and weight, collection arrangements, delivery location and preferred date. Photos of the boat and access can also help the transporter assess the move.
Loading and unloading
Some marinas handle loading with their own travel lift or crane. In other cases, the transporter provides crane or HIAB support. Ask the transporter and marina who is responsible for each lift and make sure the quote reflects all lifting charges.
