Uship

[StanleyJ]

I used USHIP for my Oday 272 on my dual axel trailer. They did an excellent job towing my boat 625 miles for about $800.00.

Got a bunch of quotes and they are all over the map from $6500 - 2800 , Still have a few days, see what they come up with. At least you can see the truckers reviews like they do on ebay.

Make sure of there credentials and insist on seeing their insurance policy.

If you go for it, you should insure your boat, including the transport, right after you take possession. They will ask you for the name of the transporter. This may cost you an extra $20 or $50, but it is certainly worth it. If you have any doubts, check another thread on this forum (look for "how not to trailer your boat").

Who is going to secure the boat for transport? e.g. mast, outboard, shrouds etc. I would not trust the uship carrier. Or is it all ready to go?

This is the one I'm thinking of, located in London Ontario. Owner says trailer has been rebuild, I got a few bids in from Uship, they came up with $6400.00 deliverd to my door, I don't think that is going to happen.

Looking at the photo, it appears to be missing the roller on the front of the trailer which supports the bow. CD may have some input on how this could damage during trailering but I don't think you'll want to move it without it installed/set properly.
