Preparing Your Boat for Christchurch Boat Transport


Prior to transporting your boat, it is essential to prepare it properly to prevent damage or issues during transit. Here are some steps to follow:


• Inspect the condition of your boat and capture photographs before transport.


• Remove valuable items from your boat, as they will not be insured during transport.


• Empty the bilge, water, and refuse stores, and disconnect the fuel tank.


• Disconnect the battery and organize cables to prevent draining or shortages.


• Secure all accessories and life jackets, and ensure doors and compartments are locked.


• If your boat has a canopy, ensure it is extra secure to withstand transport speeds.


For sailboats, remove winches and rigging from the mast and provide padding for tie-down points. Pulpits, stanchions, and lifelines can be removed if they render the boat too large for transport.

Will My Goods Be Tied Up Securely?

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?

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.
