Preparing Your Boat for Transport


If your vessel is being transported by land, several preparatory tasks will help ensure a smooth journey. Plan ahead to give yourself ample time to prepare and find a suitable transport service. Regardless of the transport method, thorough preparation is essential to prevent damage, leakage, or loose ends during transit.


Inspect the condition: Thoroughly examine the interior and exterior of your vessel before transport and take photographs of its initial state. Remove valuables: Take all valuable items off your boat, as these won't be insured during transport. Empty the bilge, water, refuse stores, and fuel: Pump out wastewater, empty freshwater tanks, and disconnect fuel tanks to make the Boat lighter and prevent leaks.
