Boat Transport Costs in Bishop's Stortford, Hertfordshire


The cost of Boat transport in Bishop's Stortford, Hertfordshire, can vary greatly depending on several factors, including the Boat's dimensions, the distance it needs to travel, and whether it's being relocated within the UK or internationally. On average, you can expect to pay between £100 to £260 for shorter distances and between £450 to £750 for longer journeys. The average cost per mile for standard Boat transport in Hertfordshire is around £1.50.


The Boat's dimensions play a significant role in determining the transportation cost. Compact vessels are generally simpler and less expensive to transport, whereas larger sailboats or narrowboats require special attention and might be more expensive. International Boat transport, on the other hand, can be far more costly and might necessitate different companies than those in Hertfordshire.

Preparing Your Boat for Transport in Bishop's Stortford


Before your Boat is relocated, there are several preparatory tasks you need to complete to ensure a smooth journey. Inspect the condition of your Boat, both inside and out, and take photographs before it's transported. Remove any valuables, empty the bilge, water, and waste stores, and disconnect the battery and tidy cables.


Secure all accessories and life jackets, and ensure the canopy is extra secure. For sailboats, 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 removed if they will make the Boat too large to transport easily.
