Using Shiply To Find A Boat Transporter


To find a reliable boat transport Torquay service, simply create a listing on our website. You'll need to provide some basic information about your boat, including its size, type, and the dates and locations of pick-up and drop-off. Once you've created your listing, you'll start receiving quotes from transport providers.


Preparing Your Boat For Transport


Before your Boat is transported, there are several preparatory jobs to do to ensure a smooth journey.

Make sure all accessories and life jackets are stowed away, and secure all doors and compartments.

For sailboats, you'll need to remove all winches and rigging from the mast, and provide padding for points at which the mast will be tied down. Pulpits, stanchions, and lifelines should only be taken off if they will make the Boat too large to transport easily.


Completing Your Boat's Transportation


When your Boat safely reaches its destination, your transport provider should help you with the unloading or docking. They may also assist with other parts of maintenance and checks, depending on what you agreed.

Couriers on Shiply are able to provide all levels of service and can help pack your items, just ensure you inform them of your needs.

Will My Goods Be Tied Up Securely?

Transport providers will almost always tie up an item in the transport vehicle, as the risk of damage from moving around during transit is high. You should always confirm safety precautions and packing needs with transport providers before accepting a quote.

Can Items Be Taken Upstairs?

Yes, items can be taken upstairs if needed, and can also be assembled. Transport providers on Shiply are happy to provide these services, but you should ensure that you are mentioning these requirements in your listings as it may mean a second person is required for the move.

Can I Travel With My Goods?

The majority of transport providers on Shiply are only insured for the transportation of goods, however, some are also able to take people. If you need to travel with your goods, make sure to mention this in your listing and highlight this to any courier who quotes on your listing.

What If I Need To Cancel My Booking?

If you have accepted a quote and paid the deposit but wish to cancel the delivery, then you should first inform your chosen transport provider that you no longer require the delivery. You should then contact us at to have your deposit refunded.

Can I Change The Address Of The Delivery?

If you have not yet accepted a quote then you are able to change the address of your listing. Note that editing details of your listing after publishing will result in active quotes being voided, so you will have to wait for new quotes to come in.

Do I Need To Take My Boat Anywhere?

Typically, boat transporters on Shiply will be able to pick your boat up from wherever it is located and will use special boat trailers to do so. If your journey is strictly overseas then it may be cheaper to drive to the port yourself, but boat transporters will always be able to collect your boat, wherever it is.

Can I Keep Items In My Boat During Transportation?

This will likely be up to your boat transporter's discretion, so make sure to ask! One thing to note is that the items will likely not be covered by the insurance that covers the boat, so don't leave anything in there you cannot easily replace.
